  JETHRO TULL The Broadsword And The Beast reviews and MP3
JETHRO TULL — The Broadsword And The Beast
Broadsword is not a bad album at all but it’s weak as compared to early work of the band and about the same quality with previous album “A”.
I hate to say it but "The broadsword and the Beast" is basically a dumbed down version of 'Heavy Horses.' The irrespirable folk-structure of early Tull is diluted somewhat here but it shines through on a couple of moments, which coincidentally are the highlights of this album.

 Evolving Artist - Jethro Tull - Broadsword and the Beast
They come out three at a time and we are nearly through the entire JT studio albums at this point.
The 1982 release Broadsword and the Beast, as with many of the JT recordings, takes a few listens to settle in and grow on you.
“Broadsword” and “Seal Driver” comes popping out at you as the best tracks, with all of the powerful Barre pinpoint blues-rock influenced riffs and the regal medieval and Celtic influences lurking in the foreground as usual.

Anderson observes the entropy of spirit that's got individuals and nations in its icy grip, and, with a noble tilt to his head, he unsheathes his excalibur and stalks off to slay the beast that visits this plague upon the motherland.
But on The Broadsword and the Beast, the real beast may be Anderson's penchant for ponderous sermonizing.

I remember when "Broadsword and the Beast" was first released it contained the direction and confidence of the bands' early years whilst being diverse musically as more recent Tull music.
This is one of Tull's best albums - whether splicing the mainbrace on Broadsword, wallowing in the pastoral yearning of Slow Marching Band, progging out on Seal Driver or synth-throbbing on The Clasp - this is an album as old as the hills and as futuristic as its 1981 heritage allows.
Broadsword blends the mandolins, flute and acoustic guitars of Songs From The Wood with the synthesisers of 'A'.

 Broadsword and the Beast - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The runic symbols around the edge of the cover are from the Cirth rune system used by J.R.R. Tolkien in The Lord Of The Rings.

"Broadsword" change une fois encore de registre avec une musique qui retrouve des origines folkloriques, grâce à la mandoline et à la guitare acoustique.
Mixture incroyable de hard-rock très mélodique (avec flûte!), de musique de la Renaissance, de folk anglais et écossais,"Broadsword and the Beast" entre à fond dans les années 80 en gardantle meilleur du côté romantique et passéiste de Jethro Tull.

 Broadsword & The Beast by Jethro Tull CD
The Broadsword tour in 1982 saw Tull out on a full production tour for the final time, although smaller tours have since taken place, they have not featured the elaborate stage set that went with this one!
Broadsword saw former Cat Stevens drummer Gerry Conway join Tull for a couple of years and Dave Pegg (ex-Fairport Convention) join them for a second time.
Much of the songs were written using the new-fangled electronic instruments which gives an interesting twist to the woodsy and folksy elements in the songs.

In the '80s, Jethro Tull was no longer the dominant force on the rock scene they had been throughout much of the previous decade, but the indomitable Ian Anderson continued to make ambitious records based on themes of ages past, even in an era of skinny ties and drum machines.
BROADSWORD AND THE BEAST has a marked swords-and-sorcery motif; Anderson is depicted as a winged elfin creature on the cover.
The record is divided into two sides, Beastie and Broadsword.

Broadsword and the Beast war für mich das letzte Album, wo Ian noch mit vollem Stimmumfang singt (Under Wraps zählt für mich nicht, mit der Platte hat er seine Stimme versaut).

 JETHRO TULL, BROADSWORD AND THE BEAST CD REVIEW ON ROCK N ROLL UNIVERSE
Interesting to note is that judging by the cover of the album; it almost puts you back in time…the time of the Vikings for example.
The music composed on a number of tracks such as 'Broadsword' and 'Beastie' will take you back to that time if you can imagine them.
Ian Anderson surely must think highly enough of this album to re-issue it and most likely realized that this was a highlight in the group’s illustrious career.

Now you might say "wait a tick, Broadsword and the Beast has been out on CD for years." That's true, but the original CD release was nearly unlistenable, and certainly the weakest disc in the collection.
Broadsword & the Beast was a moderate success in the United States, but in Germany and other European countries - this was "THE" Jethro Tull album to have, eclipsing Aqualung, Thick as a Brick and all the rest in sales and chart ranking.
After their controversial "A" album from 1980, Jethro Tull charged into the year 1982 with their outstanding release, "The Broadsword And The Beast." Truly one of the group's very best works, "Broadsword" saw Jethro Tull acquire two new band members in the forms of keyboardist Peter John Vettese and drummer Gerry Conway.

 Realms Beyond Diablo Variants - Demoniac
As soon as he can obtain a broadsword he will wield one, and this shall be his preferred weapon until a unique item that was forged to slay demons (Civerb's Cudgel, BloodSlayer) is found.
Besides the Broadsword, the Demoniac likes the Flail as a weapon of punishment.These and heavy weapons with at least +100% damage are very strongly preferred (Hellslayer, Mess Reaver, Eaglehorn, Windforce, Doombringer, Grizzly, Deadly Hunter Bow; also Master's, Champion's, King's; Massive, Savage, Ruthless, Merciless).
A sample nice (and somewhat non-standard) setup for a high level demoniac might be: Awesome Full Plate of Precision, Obsidian Helm of Stars, a Merciless Broadsword of Slaughter, Emerald Shield of Tiger, Gold Amulet of the Heavens, Gold Ring of Perfection, Gold Ring of Tiger, with a Cudgel and Bloodslayer for Demon bosses.

 Liner Notes from Remastered Broadsword and the Beast - The Official Jethro Tull Website
A little voice suggested that the vision of the production consultants hired to come up with the elaborate stage set might just be a little silly in the post-punk climate of fear surrounding Prog-rock and the new Pomp and Cyberspace world of the music computer, sampler and sequencer.
The bonus tracks are from these same groups of sessions and, of course, could never have fitted with the temporal limitations of vinyl.
Dedicated to the then new boys, Peter and Gerry – here is the re-mastered Broadsword replete with original and restored sonic detail.

The media regarded 'Broadsword' as the album that dragged Tull kicking and screaming into the 80's, and yet the band had achieved their goal of making what could be regarded as a classic, traditional Jethro Tull album" (1).
The music press took a favourable attitude to the album - for a Tull-album, that is. 'Broadsword' sold very well in Europe, esp. in Germany and is still one of the most wanted Tull albums ordered via the internet.
However, the album itself and the two Broadsword tours that subsequently followed, showed a rejuvenated Jethro Tull, a band that got it's grip on things again, full of selfconfidence heading for the future.

This classic album, produced by Paul Samwell-Smith, was released back in 1982.
The songs on Broadsword & the Beast are highly accessible, with imaginative lyrics that shouldn't be taken too seriously -- "If you wear a warmer sporran, you can keep the foe at bay" and all that!
"Broadsword" resonates with drama; the drums on "Watching Me Watching You" recreate the train effects of the song's lyrics.

Sadly the drummer of this tour also passed away in 2006 from a long battle with kidney disease.
The next release was Broadsword and the beast in 1982, with a new guest drummer and keyboardist.
The music was more synthesised influenced and less complex than the previous album, but still charted well due to to it's commercial sound and style.
