Jethro Tull Playing Bouree with Orchestra
This man, Ian Anderson, is my hero. For making flute a rock instrument, I award him 49 cool points. For turning Bouree by Bach into a piece of “loathsome cocktail lounge jazz” I award him 32 cool points. And for screaming into his flute near the end of the piece, I award him 25 cool points, putting Mr. Anderson at a nice even 106 points on my cool chart.
