Martin Barre Revisits Jethro Tull Classics On New Album

09/04/2014
. (Prog) Jethro Tull guitarist Martin Barre has confirmed the release of solo band album Order Of Play on September 29 via Edifying Records. It's the studio version of the stage show in which they deliver a set of Tull classics, and features vocalist Dan Crisp, bassist Alan Thomson, drummer George Lindsay and saxophonist Richard Beesley.

Barre says the 14-track work was recorded in a single day. He explains: "Fans kept asking for a CD - but rather than record a gig we thought we'd record live in a studio, with all the energy of a show but with the best sound quality possible.

"It was really important to keep the feel and continuity the same as a live gig. By end of the day we had the songs finished." Grab more details and his current tour dates here.
