Ian Anderson - Thick As A Brick 2 (2Lp) Vinyl New

IAN ANDERSON'S ACCLAIMED SEQUEL TO A PROGRESSIVE ROCK MASTERPIECE RETURNS - NOW HALFSPEED MASTERED FOR SUPERIOR SOUND In 2012, Ian Anderson - the legendary Jethro Tull frontman, composer & flautist - revisited one of rock's most celebrated concept albums with 'Thick As A Brick 2'. Subtitled 'Whatever Happened To Gerald Bostock ?', this audacious sequel explores the imagined later life of the fictional child prodigy who inspired Jethro Tull's 1972 classic 'Thick As A Brick'. 'Thick As A Brick 2' poses playful "what-if" scenarios for Bostock's adulthood - banker, homeless wanderer, preacher, soldier, ordinary man - weaving them into a meditation on fate, chance & the cyclical nature of life. Musically, the album bridges Anderson's signature wit & literary flair with a modern progressive sound, full of dynamic shifts, rich instrumentation & lyrical introspection. Now, 'Thick As A Brick 2' returns in a deluxe Half-Speed Mastered 2LP edition, cut by award-winning engineer John Webber at AIR Studios, London using audio remastered from the original sources & pressed on black vinyl. Originally hailed by critics & fans alike as a worthy successor to one of prog rock's most iconic albums, 'Thick As A Brick 2' stands as a bold work in its own right - a witty, thought-provoking journey through time, imagination & identity.
