Thick as Brick on the iTunes right now
Damn that is one good album

Everything about it, perhaps the most amazing album from start to finish...

I love them!! I love Ian Anderson and his wife (the lyrics writer).
I went to their opening world tour concert for that exact album, in Boston
at The Boston Garden -- front row seats and after having worked 14 hr days
for two weeks? Promptly fell asleep right after their opening song... :cry:
"Bungel in the Jungle' :( I was so pissed at myself!!

PS.
I actually hired an acoustic guitarist and he played their music at my wedding!

I walked down the aisle to --

"Wond'ring Aloud"

Wond'ring aloud --
how we feel today.
Last night sipped the sunset --
my hands in her hair.
We are our own saviours
as we start both our hearts beating life
into each other.

Wond'ring aloud --
will the years treat us well.
As she floats in the kitchen,
I'm tasting the smell
of toast as the butter runs.
Then she comes, spilling crumbs on the bed
and I shake my head.
And it's only the giving
that makes you what you are.

5. I do love Tull...
Thick as a Brick transcends anything though...

It was as if they were in touch with something almost cosmic on that album...

6. "I may make you feel but I can't make you think."
I have always loved that line. ;)
