6 items added today: JETHRO TULL - BENEFIT 3rd album from 1970 and the last of the formative years output. Some everlasting tunes, that would accompany the band in years to come are included, especially `Nothing Is Easy`. The group parts with the blues roots and is almost there as far as creating a unique and consistent artistic style for itself. Definitely a very good piece of Prog to have. JETHRO TULL - TOO OLD TO ROCK `N` ROLL: TOO YOUNG TO DIE! 9th album from 1976. Although harshly criticized at the time of its release, in retrospect this is as good as any other JT material. Originally planned for a stage play, this semi-concept album deals with the personal and social changes in the rock ´n´ roll world and is considered Anderson´s statement on the subject. This album also marks the first line-up chage in four years. JETHRO TULL - WAR CHILD 7th album from 1974. After 2 incredible concept albums it took the group over a year to produce this one, which marked a return to the conventional song format, although the predominant central theme (violence) is present. Also new are some orchestral arrangements, which even meant touring with a string quartet. Great tunes and perfect performances as usual. This completes the entire JT remastered series as available at this moment! STRAWBS - FROM THE WITCHWOOD 5th album from 1971 and the first to feature Rick Wakeman as a full band member. The transition from the folky roots to the new rocky sound is even more evident here and the group seems to acheive a perfect ballance of both. Usual mix of well crafted songs and delicate arrangements creates an enchanted atmosphere. Pure delight! STRAWBS - BURSTING AT THE SEAMS 7th album from 1973. This was the group`s most commercially successful album and features their hit `Part Of The Union`. Strawbs were at the top of their popularity at that time, which led to extensive touring. However, soon after most of the players on this one left the group, which forced Dave Cousins to rebuild it almost from scratch, which he did well as documented by the next release. STRAWBS - GHOSTS 9th album from 1975. This albums marks the decline in their popularity and although as solid as anything else they recorded previously, was a commercial failure, as were all their following albums. Thre is a lot of great music here, as usual, and for a Strawbs fan this is a great addition to the music library. This completes the entire Strawbs remastered series as available at this moment!
