Jethro Tull Heavy Horses: In-depth in Bloomington, MN

By 1978, the landscape of pop music had changed considerably since Jethro Tull's earlier hit albums
Aqualung
(1971) and
Thick As A Brick
(1972). Punk, disco and new wave were in and progressive rock's heyday was over. Despite all of this, during the year of the band's tenth anniversary, a cohesive line-up of Jethro Tull worked happily together to release the successful studio album,
Heavy Horses
.
In this book, Laura Shenton MA LLCM DipRSL offers an in-depth perspective on
from a range of angles including how the album came to be, how it was presented and received at the time (live as well as on record), and what it means in terms of Jethro Tull's legacy today.
