For a comparison with the original version of "Thick As A Brick" from 1972 can not withstand this new recording. Yet I can gain something something this performance. It is positive that the recording is musically not clones. The new recording is quite self-contained. That was it but also already. Vocally, the recording is also getting used to for me. Ryan O'Donnell brings with his singing, although new elements, which, however, does not always suit me. My judge it after Ian Anderson should have to do without his participation. I'm assuming that I that I will put the first CD of this album is not too often in my player. The second CD Thick As A Brick 2 ", however, is not so bad. Does even more dynamic than the studio recording. Sure, as a fan of Jethro Tull, I wanted to "Thick As A Brick" Live In Iceland necessarily have. It completes my collection again. A big hit for this live recording but not really.
