Jethro Tull were a unique phenomenon in popular music history. Their mix of hard rock; folk melodies; blues licks; surreal, impossibly dense lyrics; and overall profundity defied easy analysis, but that didn’t dissuade fans from giving them 11 gold and five platinum albums. At the same time, critics rarely took them seriously, and they were off the cutting edge of popular music since the end of the 1970s.
Original Album Series box set from the prog rock/folk greats rounds up five complete albums. First up is 1977’s Songs from the Wood, which is the first in a trio of fan-favorite folk-centric releases that included Heavy Horses (1978) and Stormwatch (1979), both of which are also included in the package. 1980’s A embraced a more synth-based style, an approach that the band also utilized on their 1982 follow-up and 14th studio long-player, the largely critically panned Broadsword and the Beast.
