And here am I who would disagree completely. I have seen each and every Tull tour since 72, about 85 total, until 2 years ago. Without question the 92 Light music tour ranks with any in their history, and I do mean any. Several other brilliant tours, not sure how clearly they have spoken to the Locomotive Breath, Classic Rock, or Prog Rock crowd though. Did you actually call Dave Pegg a chump? That is rich, many of us know him. Maybe u mean what IA had them wearing.
Dave Pegg: top chap, great muso, but not a rock star. Always looked a prat, for me, horsing around on stage with Tull. It's funny, I saw the Little Light Music tour too, and Ian couldn't sing a note. I think it's because they were so fabulous in the Seventies that we cut them so much slack now as fans.
Much better live than on vinyl, this album. Terrible shame about the boilersuits though, with Martin looking particularly foolish. And then there's that chump Dave Pegg. Oh dear, oh dear. All down hill from here, really.
A terrific song from a very underrated album. The tour was fantastic was well.

I disagree slightly...I think the Broadsword period represented a nice renaissance for the band. But after that I'd agree they faded badly.
