Thick As A Brick

Jethro Tull ·1972

"Thick As A Brick by Jethro Tull is a very significant album for me. One of the coolest things about this is the album cover folds out to be a full English provincial newspaper. When I was a teenager, I remember memorizing this entire 45-minute concept album and playing along with it."
