Concerning the fall & rise of Ray Lomas.
I've done my best with poor quality scans of the original artwork ~ a must-have part of the history of this album (-:
Lyrics:
Now if you think Ray blew it,
there was nothing to it.
They patched him up as good as new.
You can see him every day ---
riding down the queen's highway,
handing out his small cigars to the kids from school.
And all the little girls with their bleached blond curls
clump up on their platform soles.
And they say ``Hey Ray --- let's ride away
downtown where we can roll some alley bowls.''
And Ray grins from ear to here, and whispers...
So follow me. Trail along.
my leather jacket's buttoned up.
And my four-stroke song
will pick you up when your last class ends;
and you can tell all your friends:
The Pied Piper pulled you,
The mad biker fooled you,
I'll do what you want to:
If you ride with me on a Friday
anything goes.
So follow me, hold on tight.
My school girl fancy's flowing in free flight.
I've a tenner in my skin tight jeans.
You can touch it if your hands are clean.
The Pied Piper pulled you,
the mad biker folled you,
I'll do what you want to:
If you ride with me on a Friday
anything goes.

'Big Riff and Mando' ~ Jethro Tullby SilverWolfMoon4,488 views
Another Tull classic (though not many know it). The band always has interesting art on its albums but on "Too Old..." it went in a completely new direction. Tull was innovative in lots of senses. The music here was definitely Tull but different to all the other albums. And I always loved how Ray gets layed at the end...

Lol. . .(-: Good old Ray!
Yes, it's one of my all-time fave Tull tracks. It's just a superb composition, but the album was a bit of a flop, so many folks probably overlook it.
Take care.
