Talk Tull to Me - a weekly Jethro Tull deep dive

Rare and Precious Chain

Season 19, Ep. 289

The heaviest, and possibly sexiest, love song we've heard from Tull. So sultry, so exotic, so spicy. Feel the heat in the air, the pepper upon your tongue, then take off all your clothes ... and take a cold shower. Settle down.


19th studio album - Roots to Branches
