Propaganda: "The flute is a heavy, metal instrument." So read the tongue-in-cheek promotional ads after the band's unexpected victory over Metallica at the 1988 Grammys. While their heydey was past, and a lineup shift was accidentally forced by the record label insisting 1980's "A" be released as a Tull album instead of Ian Anderson's solo debut, they still managed numerous hits and successes.

Propaganda: I'd kill a man for my cheekbones to look like Daniel Ash's

Jethro Tull makes me want to get into a drunken bar fight, beat up a random Irishman (I’m half Irish) and then take a motorcycle, crash it into a pond, and then frolic in the woods while wearing a wizard hat and a trench coat with a bunch of sticks hidden under it
