Wikipedia

A Little Light Music (1992) is a Jethro Tull live album. All songs were recorded during the A Little Light Music European concert tour of May 1992. There are two versions of this album. The second version was printed in Italy and is marketed and distributed only in Italy and Greece. In this second version of this album, the Greek singer George Dalaras participates and sings a duet with Ian Anderson the song "John Barleycorn". This song was recorded live from the concert that took place on May 13, 1992.


Allmusic

After the '70s, Jethro Tull struggled with each album to update their sound, but kept falling short with out-of-place synthesizers and drum machines. Three attempts at harder-rocking albums were followed by the Little Light Music tour in 1992, one which took a step back into a relaxing semi-acoustic setting. This album, a document of that May's European shows, should be treasured by fans looking for something more than the 10,000th performance of "Aqualung" (although it does contain the 10,001st performance of "Locomotive Breath"). The playing highlights the gentlest musical abilities of Ian Anderson, Martin Barre, bassist / mandolinist Dave Pegg, and temporary drummer Dave Mattacks (Pegg's Fairport Convention buddy). Old favorites are rearranged alongside rarely performed tunes from the Tull catalog. The quieter numbers ("Life Is a Long Song") and instrumentals ("Look into the Sun") come off best in this club-like atmosphere, although the production is a little chilly.
