THE SECRET LANGUAGE OF BIRDS

Ian Anderson has created a sound different enough to Tull on this album that it can be recognised as a new project, but has kept enough of that Tull sound to attract fans of his long time band.There are some great songs on the album, the title track and postcard day come to mind, but there also some weak songs ( I think Panama Freighter ) which come across as fillers and for me spoil the overall effect. Great musicianship let down by just a couple of dodgy tracks.
