Jungle playoff!

I realized that, for some unknown reason, a mash-up of "Bungle in the Jungle" (Jethro Tull) and "Jungle Love" (Steve Miller) was playing in my head. So I decided to have a playoff to see which one I like better... (I knew I liked them both.)

First: Jethro Tull
When the guitar fell in at the :24 mark, I was like, yeah. 🤘 And I dig the flute and the violin. And the line "I write on your tombstone, I thank you for dinner." ?😅 Good song.

Then: Steve Miller
Great beginning. And once it gets going, it never stops. That guitar just rocks. And the drums too. I don't even really know what the song's about, but I love this koan: "We need some definite answers/So I thought I would write you a poem/The question to everyone's answer/Is usually asked from within/ ??😅 And that little piano fillip after "peaches and cream" is cute. 😊 Then the outro, which reprises the intro with that whistle thing or whatever it is, is great.

As you can probably guess, I think Steve Miller won. At least today. Maybe on another day, things might hit differently.

“Flying so high, trying to remember … how many cigarettes did I bring along.”

Jethro Tull release their third album, Benefit ~ April 20, 1970. Ian Anderson said that he considers Benefit a much darker album than Stand Up, owing to the pressures of an extensive U.S. tour and frustration with the music business.

"Locomotive Breath" is a song by British #progressiveRock band #JethroTull from their 1971 album, #Aqualung. Written as a comment on population growth, "Locomotive Breath" was meant to replicate the chugging rhythm of a train. In addition to its release on Aqualung, "Locomotive Breath" saw two different single releases and has been a live favourite. It is one of Jethro Tull's best-known songs.
