Geeze.
Shoulda read the thread before I asked it f you had watched Harvest Home.

This is just one of the reasons I love Jethro Tull.

The majority of Ians songs reference “ the old ways” of his country.

May Day is not just some silly dance done by kids.

Now… let’s pick apart John Barleycorn Must Die.

LOL...you and I are on the same page; this is SO much fun! :-)

You need to watch the videos that THE RESURRECTIONIST has on YouTube! She's brilliant and does many a very DEEP DIVE into fairy tales, nursery rhymes and folklore! I thought that I knew all there was on this stuff ( I certainly have a LOT of books on it all! ), but I've learned SO much from her! She's a Brit, BTW.
