Songs from the Wood [Bonus Tracks] [Remaster] by Jethro Tull

Pros: Sweet wordwork. Typically ace performances, with a slight touch of the minstrel's hand.
Cons: Not as folky as I thought it'd be. Definitely not that memorable.

Pros: A must for the up and coming Jethro Tull fan
Cons: If you're a Jethro Tull fan I dont see one.
