While taking a poke or two at the genre, Ian Anderson crafted a prog rock classic. Jethro Tull’s supreme concept album – Thick as a Brick – was released today in 1972. It’s an ambitious effort, but Anderson, Martin Barre, John Evan, Jeffrey Hammond & Barriemore Barlow sound great here.

"Jimmy" Garrison formally joined Coltrane's quartet in 1962, replacing Reggie Workman. The long trio blues "Chasin' the Trane" is probably his first recorded performance with Coltrane and Elvin Jones. Garrison appeared on many classic Coltrane recordings, including A Love Supreme. In concert with Coltrane, Garrison would often play unaccompanied improvised solos, sometimes as the prelude to a song before the other musicians joined in. Garrison also had a long association with Ornette Coleman, first recording with him on Ornette on Tenor and Art of the Improvisers. He and drummer Elvin Jones have been credited with eliciting more forceful playing than usual from Coleman on the albums New York is Now and Love Call. Outside of the Coltrane and Coleman ensembles, Jimmy Garrison performed with jazz artists such as Kenny Dorham, Philly Joe Jones, Curtis Fuller, Benny Golson, Lennie Tristano, Lee Konitz, Jackie McLean, Pharoah Sanders, and Tony Scott, among others. After Coltrane's death, Garrison worked with Hampton Hawes, Archie Shepp, and groups led by Elvin Jones. Photo by ©Jan Persson

Released 2 Mar 1973, the single '20th Century Boy' by T. Rex. It entered the chart at No 3 but got no higher.
"I move like a cat, Charge like a ram
Sting like a bee, Babe, I want to be your man
Well it's plain to see, You were meant for me
Yeah, I'm your boy, Your 20th century toy"
