Read the lyrics. Very risqué.
I remember seeing a video of concert footage, just before this record came out, with Anderson introducing this song as one of the most challenging to play. I would have to agree - this one certainly has a technical side to it. One of the best JT albums.
Great track from one of their best albums... 9!
This song is soooo good for the ears...
Hey Bill> 9 Years since last play?!!!
Went to see Tull just after this came out, never one of their best albums but still enjoyable and a great live band esp. in smaller venues like Hammersmith Odean.

Damn! Missed it! Very much like the whole Songs from the Wood album—Tull's last really good one, I think. Must make a note to buy it on CD—think my vinyl is long lost. . . .

Lots of glowing reviews, I'm with you folks. Wish we could here it more than once every 3 years.
great song, one of his best (i don't like calling jethro tull a band because mostly Ian is doing all the work)
I really love the 'Tull' sound.

Whoo-hoo! Ian's getting his leggings in a froth!
This is what being English is all about!
Just upped it from 8 to 9



This makes me want to dress up in medival clothing and prance through the forest with my pony. ...haven't done that in a while....

It's SO great to hear this song! Talk about talent! Ian Anderson is just amazing. Songs From the Wood is a fantastic album. Thank you Radio Paradise!
Hah! Take that, you young whippersnapper! Payback for all the noise I have to listen to at intersections.drH wrote:

Now that there is a little historical perspective, I think you have to give JT a lot of respect for being a true original. I remeber seeing them in LA a hundred years ago (well maybe 25). Ian Anderson was a great showman. I think their music really holds up over time.
/searches record collection for more JT to play
I never get tired of hearing this song--it transports me to another time and place.
Excellent.... will have to dust off the old album and listen to it again. Forgot I had it until I heard this song.
Never heard this song, but it is excellent! It deserves a 9. Among the best of the Jethro Tull, I think!
Haven't heard this in years! Thanks RP!
Bloody hell. Now we're talking. Cheeky song to start the morning.
NEVER thought I'd hear this song on the radio. Any radio. RP never ceases to amaze me. Paradise indeed!
