WAR CHILD

Contrary to what some here would have you believe, this is an excellent album. "Skating Away" is a must-have classic, catchy cut with some of songsmith Ian Anderson's best lines since THICK AS A BRICK, and the infectious title track, the driving "The Third Hoorah" and the rocking "Two Fingers" are absolutely not to be missed.

The daring (but fitting) incorporation of some accordion to the sonic mix, as well as the spot-on orchestrations of frequent collaborator David Palmer add further variety and interest to the sound, and help to make WAR CHILD another solid entry in the JT catalogue, and required listening for all true Tull fans.
