Jethro Tull 1st Press GER LP Stand up VG+ ’69 Pink Island with eye 849303UY Prog
Original German LP released in 1969 on the Pink island label with eye. Cat: 849 303 UY. Comes in gloss gatefold with pop up centre. Matrix numbers: 10 AA849303 1Y 320/ 10 AA849303 2Y 320.The group's second album, with Anderson (vocals, flute, acoustic guitars, keyboards, balalaika), Martin Barre (electric guitar, flute), Clive Bunker (drums), and Glen Cornick (bass), solidified the group's sound. There is still an element of blues, but except for "A New Day Yesterday," it is far more muted than on their first album, as Mick Abrahams' blues stylings are largely absent from Martin Barre's playing. The influence of folk music also began to manifest itself ("Look Into the Sun"). The instrumental "Bouree," which could've been an early Blood, Sweat & Tears track, became a favorite concert number, although at this point Anderson's flute playing on-stage needed a lot of work; by his own admission, he just wasn't that good. Bassist Cornick would last through only one more album, but he gets his best moments here, on "Bouree." As a story song with opaque lyrics and jarring tempo changes, "Back to the Family" is the forerunner to Thick as a Brick.
Tracks : A new day yesterday/ Jeffrey goes to Leicester Square/ Bouree/ Back to the family/ Look into the sun/ Nothing is easy/ Fat man/ We used to know/ Reasons for waiting/ For a thousand mothers.
