Jethro Tull - Hymn 43 (time for a sermon)

[ProfessorGAC]

4. Of Course!

But, I played in bands for 33 years & all of them had some focus on turning over the song list regularly.
That last band (that lasted 19 years) willfully dropped 6-8 songs a year & another 8-10 went into rotation. (Maybe do a couple of them, replacing others, on the 2nd night of a 2 nighter.) We likely ended up 250-300 songs on our "did it" list, plus 10-12 pocket list songs, plus 3 sets of different material for the 3 piece line up.
We only did 5-8 original songs per night, so we did lots of covers.
In addition, 3 of my last 5 bands made a serious effort to look for hits to cover that other bands didn't do.
So, on a forum like this where we've got dozens of people who really like music a lot of the cool tunes we specifically sought out are likely to show up.
As to the piano, John Evan was a very good player. One thing to listen for are his contrary lines. He often changes chords at the same time as the guitar, but when the guitar goes up, he goes down & vice versa. Adds no unnecessary "busyness" but does add texture.
His opening piano part on Locomotive Breath is iconic.
