Description of composition: Although not as complicated as the accompanying two Jethro Tull compositions, there is much to study in the picture and, of course, all relates specifically to the group's wondrous history, music and imagery. Is that Mr.Anderson, circa 1984, holding up a 1969 'Stand Up' era poster, against a background of The Black Cuillins on the Isle of Skye, 'surrounded' by a brick 'wall' inscribed with the names of past and present (1988) band members and Tull albums to date? As befits his legendary Tull Status, Mr.Barre, again here, as in the 'Lifebelt' and '21st' pictures, is also illustrated circa 1984. A Tull stone 'Cluster of Angels' with flute and banner crown all these antics.
 
 
An exhaustive picture completed in 1988 to celebrate Jethro Tull's, then, '20th Anniversary 1968 - 1988' since the group's formation in 1968.
