[BriH]

earlier today heard one of their tracks ,dont know which one ,then bizzarly heard one on virgin about an hour or so ago ,again havent got a clue what track it was - but it rekindled my youth ,i didnt like them when i was at school , but must have mellowed somewhat as i approach 40

so this is where you chaps come in ,i want to bearshare (or nick someone elses files ,cos i dont share ha ha) ,what is the best songs they have done ,i have seen aqualung is popular on bearshare ,but this wasnt what i heard earlier

Cheers

Tull used to be one of my favourite bands in my youth......albums such as Stand Up (the one with the stand up cut-outs when you opened the sleeve), Aqualung, Thick As A Brick..........all excellent stuff.

Rhythmically & musically, you couldn't get a tighter band (despite all the line-up changes over the years), and Martin Barre is a much under-rated guitarist by the media......he's effin' magic in full flow.

They tended to go all "Dire Straits" in the '80s.......that's when I lost interest in them.

Loads of vids on YouTube, Bri............here's a couple of contrasting vids:

Thick As A Brick from 1978:

And the later "Dire Straits" sound-a-like piece, "She Said She Was A Dancer:
