Review title: Understated gem
Product review: This elegant, subtle and sophisticated album somehow avoided the hype of other releases of the time and clearly avoided the bombast of later Tull releases. This is early Tull (I believe this to be their their third album) but there is an inflection point here which would characterize later works. Benefit is where Ian Anderson finally discovered his "voice". This is a personal favorite of mine; the songwriting is wondrous, the album's production values are advanced, especially for 1970, the combinbation of Martin Barre's Les Paul crunch with Ian's acoustic strumming makes for a delightful contrast. Also, the flute arrangements fit nicely within the fabric of the songs, moreso than with previous releases. There seems to be a wonderful logic to the arrangement of the songs as they nicely complement each other. Personal favorites, With you there to help me, Nothing to say, Sossity (absolutely magnificent!), Time for everything and, of course, Teacher.
