JETHRO TULL Broadsword and the Beast 1982 Chrysalis LP CDL1380 first press EX/EX/EX.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Broadsword and the Beast is the 14th studio album by rock band Jethro Tull, released on 10 April 1982. The album is a cross between the dominant synthesizer sound of the 1980s and the folk-influenced style that Jethro Tull used in the previous decade. As such, the band's characteristic acoustic instrumentation is augmented by electronic soundscapes, provided by new keyboardist Peter-John Vettese. The electronic aspects of this album wouldbe explored further by the band on their next release, Under Wraps. In the liner notes of the remastered version of the album, Ian Anderson opines that Broadsword contains some of Jethro Tull's best music. Condition on visual inspection is as follows: Sleeve EX, Inner EX, Vinyl EX. Very nice copy in very nice condition.
