Jethro Tull Thick As A Brick
"Thick As A Brick" has had to contend with two obstacles since its release. The first was that it was the follow-up release to "Aqualung" - considered by many as "the" Jethro Tull album - and thus had to (for many listeners) improve upon perfection. The second, and more difficult to overcome, problem is its sheer size. A 43 minute epic song with multiple layers of lyrical meaning always runs the risk of becoming the musical equivalent of "War and Peace" - that is, an epic that everyone wants to claim to have heard or read but no one actually wants to do go to the trouble of hearing or reading.
In typical Tull style, both problems were overcome with flying colours.
