review by thomas

Tull's debut album. A blues-tingled affair that's no good, it's just too damn bluesy. The one and only (thank God!) record with guitarist and singer Mick Abrahams. Ian Anderson sings on the bulk of the album, Mick - with his blues voice - sings on the real bluesy tracks. He (Mick) left Tull after this album and started the blues band Bloodwyn Pig. Auditioning to join Ian Anderson and company where no other than Tony Iommi, later of Black Sabbath (Tony actually joined the band for a month or so), before Martin Barre got the job. And with this shit behind them, gold was just around the corner. Only for hardcore Tull fans, if anyone.
