None of Jethro Tull's progressive rock
tendencies or classical influences followed Mick Abrahams into his creation of
Blodwyn Pig, even with the inclusion Jack Lancaster's sax- and flute-playing
prowess. Instead, Abrahams built up a sturdy British blues-rock sound and used
Lancaster's horn work to add some fire to the band's jazzy repertoire. Ahead
Rings Out is a stellar concoction of gritty yet flamboyant blues-rock tunes and
open-ended jazz centered around Mick Abrahams' cool-handed guitar playing, but
it's the nonstop infusion of the other styles that makes the album such a solid
listen. After only one album with Jethro Tull, Abrahams left to form this band,
and it's evident that he had a lot of pent-up energy inside him when he recorded
each of the album's tracks. With a barrage of electrifying rhythms and fleeting
saxophone and woodwind excursions, cuts like "Sing Me a Song That I Know," "Up
and Coming," and "Backwash" whip up highly energetic sprees of rock and blues.
Most of the tracks have a hearty shot of rock up the middle, but in cuts like
"The Change Song" and "Backwash," the explosive riffs are accompanied by a big
band style of enthusiasm, adding even more depth to the material. Andy Pyle's
bass playing is definitely distinct throughout each track and is used for
anything but a steady background, while labeling Ron Berg's drumming as
freewheeling and intemperate would be an understatement. It's apparent that
Blodwyn Pig's style is indeed distinct, releasing a liberated and devil-may-care
intensity while still managing to stay on track, but the fact that each cut
convokes a different type of instrumental spiritedness is where the album really
gains its reputation. Wonderfully busy and even a tad motley in some places,
Ahead Rings Out shows off the power and vitality that can be channeled by
combining a number of classic styles without sounding pretentious or overly
inflated. A year later, Blodwyn Pig recorded Getting to This before Abrahams
left the band, and although it's a solid effort, it falls just a smidgen short
of Ahead Rings Out's bluesy dynamism. (Mike
