Winter Solstice song from Jethro Tull

Jethro Tull has one foot in the folk tradition. Dave Pegg of the Fairport Convention also played bass with Tull for several years. "Songs from the Wood", released in 1977, reaches beyond folk to the Celtic/British pagan tradition. While not my cup of tea at all, I do like the song so enjoy!
