Classic Tull. Eternally underrated.

Let me dine on your Sweet Sunday lunch confusion :-)

I'm actually amazed this song doesn't have ANY shouts. IMO, this song is the most perfect re-creation of the melancholy one has as they leave a relationship, but do so with an extremely heavy heart. It's a perfect song for letting someone you love, but can no longer live with, know you're leaving. And yet, at this point more people died on 9/11 than have listened to this song, and that's sad for all kinds of reasons.

@MackSpane: I think the low playcount is mainly caused by mistagging, my iTunes tagged it as One White Duck / 0=Nothing At All, so i think there are quite a few different entries of the same song on last.fm

Yes, really: http://www.minilps.net/images/stories/shop_image/product/jethro-tull-minstrel-in-the-gallery-back-cover.jpg

I think Ian Anderson's acoustic guitar playing on this song is just beautiful. One of my fav Tull songs off one of my fav Tull albums.......
