"Key Largo" This 1343 John Huston film
has little to do with the Maxwell Anderson
play but affords Edward G. Robinson,
Humphrey Bogart Claire Trevor and, to a
lesser extent, Lauren Bacall an exciting
excuse to rattle around a deserted hotel fai the
Florida Keys during a hurricane. If s one of
Bogart's and Huston's best films.

The near-hostile response of a gifted artist
stung by criticism has resulted in the Jethro
Tull group's finest album in two years War
Child. A highly personal and painstaking
work not to be taken lightly, this vinyl
masterpiece grew from the war generated by
Passion Play.
After the critical acclaim and rise in
popularity caused by Thick as a Brick, the
tan desertion and panning which
accompanied the release of Passion Play last
year forced the enigmatic Ian Anderson into
seclusion.
Anderson took the responses as personal
attacks, as well he should, for he is Tull's
guiding light the group's founder,
composer and part-owner. (He and

an Oscar for her first starring role in "Born

However, like the proverbial phoenix.
Jethro Tull has emerged with a new album of
epic proportions. Although it represents the
group's first album in three years which
consists of individual songs instead of one
long piece. War Child is nevertheless a
concept album. It is a culmination of the
themes of religion, the human condition and
good and evil previously presented in

aggression and the nature of criticism and
satisfaction. Anderson says we're all
unavoidably animals and that although our
aggression can sometimes be used for the
benefit of humanity ("Queen and Country"),
or more often for less nobler purposes ("Two
Fingers"), it is usually merely humorous
("Sea Lion").
This comment on our violent nature,
supported by the jungle and battle sound
effects which are heard throughout, is most
evident in the title track and "Bungle in the
Jungle," a rocker which comes closest to
filling the hit-single formula of pop-rock.
A jungle of palm tree apartments provides
the setting in which Ian sings, "Let's Bungle
in the Jungle well that's all right by me
. . . this game that we animals play is a
winner," indicating his acceptance of this
condition. It's fine with Anderson if we live
in a dog-eat-dog world, just as long as the
situation retains some degree of humor.
"Only Solitaire" expresses Anderson's
struggle with a capricious rock press. The
flute virtuoso sees "the critics falling over to
tell themselves he's boring . . . and so it
must be all a game of chess he's playing." But
it is not chess, but solitaire that Anderson
plays for he is now content to write and play
to please himself.

grid star who finds himself behind bars and

sadistic guards, the convicts are cheered on
by the audience (and six tranvestite pompom

Passion Play, so we'll shoot the moon, and
hope to call the tune-r-and make no pin
cushion of this big balloon."
All lyrical meaning and content aside
however, War Child can easily stand on its
own musically. Anderson's vocal prowess is
at its best since the verbal gymnastics of
.Thick as a Brick. His flute playing however,
is kept to a disappointing minimum, as
Anderson branches out to demonstrate his
talents with a saxophone.
Martin Barre tastefully strums acoustic,
Spanish and electric guitar and more than
justifies a chance to solo during "Ladies."
Jeffrey Hammond-Hammond (bass) and
Barriemore Barlow's (drums) appropriately
aggressive playing provides a constant,
throbbing beat through the whole affair; and
John Evan embellishes all with some varied,
albeit simple, keyboard work (including
piano accordian.)
Most of the melodies are developed
slowly, as Anderson gradually adds layer
upon layer of instrumentation, crowning it
all with bagpipes and the orchestration of the
London Philamusica.
' In a sometimes directionless and apathetic
world of uncertain values, Ian Anderson and
Jethro Tull have continued to pursue high
personal and musical ideals.

The Odessa File" Frederick Forsyth's
speculative novel about a secret organization
in West Germany, circa 1SS3, which worked
to give new identities and new lives to former
SS men is turned into a workable, suspenseful
thriller starring Jon Voight (Con rack mit ein

upon personal, as well as national, secrets. It
works well, but relies very much upon the
same old stereotypes and suspicions toward
rehabilitated (ha ha) Germans. Maximilian
Schell is allowed a hysterical Nazi rampage at
the finale, which is nothing new, either. (Plaza
