All along the icy wastes there are faces smiling in the gloom. Roll up roll down, Feeling unwound? Step into the viewing room. The cameras were all around. We've got you taped; you're in the play. Here's your I. Ideal for identifying one and all. Invest your life in the memory bank; ours the interest and we thank you. The ice-cream lady wets her drawers, to see you in the passion play. All of your best friends' telephones never cooled from the heat of your hand.
There's a line in a front-page story, 13 horses that also-ran. Climb in your old umbrella. Does it have a nasty tear in the dome?
But the rain only gets in sometimes and the sun never leaves you alone, you alone Lover of the black and white it's your first night. The Passion Play, goes all the way, spoils your insight. Tell me how the baby's made, how the lady's laid, why the old dog howls in sadness. And your little sister's immaculate virginity wings away on the bony shoulders of a young horse named George who stole surreptitiously into her geography revision. The examining body examined her body.
Actor of the low-high Q, let's hear your view. Peek at the lines upon your sleeves since your memory won't do. Tell me: how the baby's graded, how the lady's faded, why the old dogs howl with Madness.
Tell us: is it you who are here for our good cheer? Or are we here for the glory, for the story, for the gory satisfaction of telling you how absolutely awful you really are? There was a rush along the Fulham Road. Fortunately, the ending part of this last portion brings back the music into melody line similar to Part 1 with this lyrical part: "There was a rush along the Fulham Road into the Ever-passion Play.
It's a rewarding experience! Summary Big apology for the long review but overall I can not put this album less than five stars rating. It's truly a masterpiece. I consider that this album is even better than the previous ground breaking "Thick As A Brick".
If you can not accept this album, please give it a chance for another 5, 10 or even 15 spins. I hope it'll grow. Otherwise, keep on proggin'..! Gatot This album is one of the greatest albums Jethro Tull have graced us! They always demonstrate the talent of whom don't repeat the same formula. Yes, it's darker than Thick As A Brick, but anyway: what's the problem? It seems to be more various with the arrangements, including very interesting saxophone passages and beautiful Barrie's drums! The story of the hare who lost his spectacle represents a surprise, a break, in the obscure and magnificient atmosphere of A Passion Play Andrea Cortese This must be one of the most complex albums ever But, complexety does not make a good album!!!
But it seems that in this case complexety has much to do with the final product. The musicianship, or better yet, the way the instruments are presented is very diferent from other Tulls albums. This is because the guitars have a minor role but at the same time keyboards are constantly there; John Evans does his best work ever with the group. The other weapon of choice is Jeffrey Hammonh-Hammond, whos bass is also a very important part of the 2 long pieces, as well as the voice that tells the story of the hare who lost his spectacles.
Then there are the drumms. As I already said the guitars play a minor role, yet they are constantly present, but not doing solos or fills, but as a supporting instrument And finally we have the bones, heart and brain of Tull Ian Anderson, who plays the sax, quite good I might add, as well as the flute.
But his acustic guitars are also different, his signature folkish kinda playing is here not present, for it has changed to a some what more classical touch But I just went on and on about the musicianship, but did not said anything about the music inself, other than its complexety The 2 pieces are pretty much just one 45 minutes song, with a fairy tale in the middle.
The music is hard to swollow some times, and Ians lyrics and voice are different from other albums. Although there is a constant irony behind his words, they are not really funny as in previous works, but dark. I find them incredibly interesting! The way he mocks very seriously about some things From all the Tull albums I have at this point, and they are not much I dont have Thick as a brick Un disco amado y odiado. Personalmente estoy en el primer grupo. Denle varias oportunidades.

Jethro Tull Christened -- 5. This Was -- 6. Bunker Does A Bunk -- 9. The choice was a disaster. First up, there were technical problems with the studio itself. Then there was the accommodation… the band all slept in a dormitory, it was very basic which might have been tolerable, had they been the sole occupants of the rooms.
Unfortunately, they had unwelcome company, of a bed-bug variety. And then to make matters infinitely worse everybody got food poisoning from the in-house catering. Unsurprisingly the band decided to go home and the decision was made to ditch the hour or so s worth of music recorded in France.
