Overview

This mammoth tome chronicles Jethro Tull's career from the outset to the end of the seventies. From the late sixties - a vital period where the group dynamics were established, Chronicles delves extensively into the history. Vintage gig and album reviews, contemporary quotes from band members, rare advertisements documenting how they were billed alongside their peers, it's all in here. Aside from the 140,000-word narrative, this is also a stunningly visual book adorned with countless photos, many of them previously unpublished. Preserving the detailed history of a band as influential as Jethro Tull is a vital endeavour. Archiving matters and to many fans out there, so does the fascinating story of Jethro Tull.

Author Information

As an author, Laura Shenton is probably best known for her music non-fiction. In particular, Dance With The Devil – The Cozy Powell Story (Wymer Publishing) and Tommy Bolin – In and Out of Deep Purple (Sonicbond Publishing). She feels that preserving the legacies of musicians who have contributed something amazing to the field is imperative.  For readers who want to enjoy the ride of letting their mind get lost in a good story without having to commit to a lengthy read, then it might just be that Laura's fiction books could be your cup of tea. They are character-driven with a short and punchy narrative that gets to the point. They are all novellas or novelettes. Genres include gothic, fantasy, and adventure (mostly, but with a few diversions too). And finally, Laura's children's books... They are simple, accessible and fun. A good choice for youngsters with a fertile imagination who are at the very start of their reading journey.
