Jethro Tull for me too. They were over here this summer for the Fiestas in Alcorcón (a town near Madrid) this summer. great free gig. Ian Anderson was amazingly sprite and we got Aqualung, Thick as a Brick and whole load of other faves. Wonderful! Curiously, as I.A. insists on finishing his set before midnight (needs his beauty sleep, I suppose) they were on before the support act!
OK - I'll buck the trend and go for Greg Lake. Nothing against Jethro Tull (in fact I was just listening to Aqualung a few days ago) but I've always loved the ever-so-slightly unsettling mood of I Believe In Father Christmas while Solstice Bells has always sounded a bit forced to me.
Deffo Jethro - if for no other reason than they were at least looking in the right direction...
ReplyDeleteSolstice Bells for me too. Much better.

ReplyDeleteI like both. Typically indecisive.
ReplyDeleteTough cause I'm a fan of both, so will go for Greg Lake 'cause I don't think he gets enough notice.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I am going for the Greg Lake one as well.
ReplyDeleteI like the Prokofiev steal.
Greg for me too, the second single I ever bought.
ReplyDeleteGreg for me, but marital strife would ensue. DsMam is a HUGE Jethro Tull fan.
