“Heavy Horses“ is the title track from Jethro Tull's eleventh studio album, Heavy Horses, which was released in the spring of 1978. Remastered FLAC Audio HD Video As much as I love earlier period Tull, probably my favorite albums were released in the time between Minstrel in '75 through Broadsword in '82. I saw Jethro Tull live touring in support of this album (extremely powerful live performance and man, as the video shows, Ian Anderson was such an incredibly agile and powerful performer!) “Heavy Horses“ just might be my absolute favorite Jethro Tull has everything; beautiful melody, fantastic Martin Barre guitar work including the monster hook, great arrangement, it's very dynamic, just cooks when it mainly it's Ian's brilliant and evocative lyrics that make it most special for me. I've heard it it many hundreds of times and it simply never grows old! One of Jethro Tull's greatest achievements.
