NIGHTCAP

Going to keep this review quite short, and its coming from someone relatively lukewarm to the standard release of A Passion Play. It's probably heresy of a sort on my part but I consider this original attempt at the Play to be considerably superior and a real find for Tull fiends. It has precisely the ingredient missing from the standard release and that is HUMOR, plus to my ears its more musical, less plodding. The other CD has a couple of gold standard Tull offerings in the form of Rosa and Broadford Bazaar. I know from being a three time creepy visitor to Ians lair as Laird of Strathaird on the Isle of Skye that Broadford is the closest town of any size to Ians post at Strathaird, although the little town of Elgol, a little closer had some of the most stunning views in all of the British Isles.
