Jethro Tull Songs from the Wood

Songs from the Wood es el décimo álbum publicado por Jethro Tull en 1977. El primero de una trilogía formada por este disco junto con los álbumes Heavy Horses y Stormwatch con la que el grupo giraría a un estilo más folk rock. Fue el primer disco de Jethro Tull, que recibió críticas unánimemente positivas desde Thick as a Brick (1972). Lleno de imaginación, arreglos y ornamentos con sabor a folk inglés y a fantasía, el álbum supone un alejamiento del estilo de los anteriores discos, más típicamente rock. Aunque los álbumes siguientes a Songs from the Wood siguieron también la influencia folk, no manifestaron elementos tan puramente campestres como éste. La formación que quedó constituida desde este LP (formada por Ian Anderson, Barriemore Barlow, Martin Barre, John Evan, John Glascock y David Palmer), se mantuvo sin cambios hasta Stormwatch (1979). El grupo publicó también un EP en 1976 complementario este álbum, titulado Ring Out, Solstice Bells, para conmemorar el solsticio de invierno. También lanzaron un vídeo promocional animado de "Ring Out, Solstice Bells", en 1976, y otro de "The Whistler", en 1977. La edición remasterizada de 2003 incluye dos temas extra como homenaje a "Velvet Green".

Songs from the Wood is the tenth studio album by British progressive rock band Jethro Tull, released February 1977. The album signalled a new direction for the band, who turned to celebrating British pagan folklore and the countryside life in a wide-ranging folk rock style which combined traditional instruments and melodies with hard rock drums and electric guitars. The album is considered to be the first of a trio of folk rock albums: Songs from the Wood, Heavy Horses (1978) and Stormwatch (1979). On the album cover appears an extended title line: "Jethro Tull – with kitchen prose, gutter rhymes and divers – Songs from the Wood". The title track of the album contain two of these phrases in its lyrics. The UK music-paper adverts read: "Jethro Tull present 'Songs From The Wood'. A new album of Old Magic. Songs From The Wood. It's inspired by the thought that perhaps nature isn't as gentle as we'd like to believe. And it takes as its theme the natural and supernatural inhabitants of the woodlands of old England. Warm and friendly, harsh and bitter by turns, it includes 'Ring Out Solstice Bells' as well as Tull's new single 'The Whistler' and seven other songs. Find a quiet spot and listen to it soon."
