Cinquanta anni fa i Jethro Tull iniziarono la loro scalata verso la vetta del rock, conquistandone la cima passando per vari versanti: progressive, folk e hard.
“Heavy Horses” è il secondo di una trilogia di album folk-rock, pubblicato tra ‘Songs From The Wood’ (1977) e ‘Stormwatch’ (1979).
L’album entrò nella Top 20 in entrambi i lati dell’Atlantico, conquistando critica e pubblico
soprattutto grazie alle sue melodie e alla firma inimitabile del flauto di Anderson.
La New Shoes Edition comprende l’album originale e nove tracce aggiuntive, di cui sette inedite.
Inoltre un concerto live del maggio 1978 e due DVD che contengono le tracce originali, bonus e
live mixati in surround sound da Steven Wilson e Jakko Jakszyk. Il booklet di 96 pagine copre la
storia dell’album e del tour corrispondente,
