Negative Positive
Title: J-Tull Dot.Com--Nothing to "e-mail" home about.
Review: I actually like the bonus track best on this album. Ian Anderson IS Jethro Tull, so I don't know how/why he puts out "solo" records under his own name instead of just recording as Tull. But it's there after "A Gift Of Roses" and it is quite good. "Spiral" is the typical opening rock track we have come to expect from Tull, and "Dot.Com" has been in my head all day..."I'll be yours, dot.com" is catchy. The album is reminiscent of "Roots To Branches." I just wish Ian played more accoustic guitar on the album. It seems the flute is utilized too much and sounds forced on some tracks. Overall, this album is listenable and not half bad. I would like to see the band rock a bit more though. So, when is Ian's new album coming out...based on the bonus track, I have higher expectations for that one than the Tull release.
Is the review positive or negative?
