Stormwatch is the twelfth studio album by the progressive rock group Jethro Tull, released September 1979. It is considered the last in the trilogy of folk-rock albums by Jethro Tull (although folk music influenced virtually every Tull album to some extent.). Among other subject-matters, the album touches heavily on the problems relating to the environment, oil and money.<\/p>\n
Stormwatch was notably the last Tull album to feature the “classic” line-up of the 1970s, as drummer Barriemore Barlow and keyboardists John Evan and David Palmer left the band the following year after the end of the Stormwatch tour, while bassist John Glascock died from heart complications during the tour.<\/p>\n
In 2004, a remastered version of Stormwatch was released with four bonus tracks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
