5 stars This CD is an absolute show of talent from each member of the band; it seems a bunch of songs (totally different in style each other) settled on an album; every track is played with all potential, as just Tull can do. In the other hand, his successor is more moderated, more sparing, and his predecessor is also full of power and talent, but under a bluessy concept. As Abrahams left the band, that bluessy concept dissapeared, reduced to a couple of songs (A New Day Yesterday & Nothing is Easy), and the album has a special (and necessary) "concept freedom": while the opening track is a hard-bluessy number, the next one is a refined and short folk song, that reminds me "Love Story", but less rocker; and the next one, a jazzy feature from Bach's "Bouree"... Permanently, the album is changing his way and direction, creating a style unique and enjoyable for any guy who likes the good rock in general.

Get it, if you are a new Tull fan.

P.D.: My english isn't the best. Excuse me.
