Análisis (en inglés) - :
The group's second album, with {$Ian Anderson} (vocals, flute, acoustic guitars, keyboards, balalaika), {$Martin Barre} (electric guitar, flute), {$Clive Bunker} (drums), and {$Glen Cornick} (bass), solidified their sound. There are still elements of {\blues} present in their music, but except for the opening track, {&"A New Day Yesterday,"} it is far more muted than on their first album -- new lead guitarist {$Martin Barre} had few of the {\blues} stylings that characterized {$Mick Abrahams}' playing. Rather, the influence of {\English folk} music manifests itself on several cuts, including {&"Jeffrey Goes to Leicester Square"} and {&"Look Into the Sun."} The instrumental {&"Bouree,"} which could've passed for an early {$Blood, Sweat & Tears} track, became a favorite concert number, with an excellent solo bit featuring {$Cornick}'s bass, although at this point {$Anderson}'s flute playing on-stage needed a lot of work. As a story-song with opaque lyrics, jarring tempo changes, and loud electric passages juxtaposed with soft acoustic-textured sections, {&"Back to the Family"} is an early forerunner to {^Thick As a Brick}. Similarly, {&"Reasons for Waiting,"} with its mix of closely miked acoustic guitar and string orchestra, all hung around a hauntingly beautiful {\folk}-based melody, pointed in the direction of that conceptual piece and its follow-up, {^A Passion Play}. [A Japanese version included bonus tracks.] ~ Bruce Eder, All Music Guide
