Stormwatch

Stormwatch is the twelfth studio album by progressive rock band Jethro Tull, released in September 1979. The album is often considered the last in a trio of folk rock albums released by the band at the end of the 1970s, alongside Songs from the Wood (1977) and Heavy Horses (1978).

Much of the album's themes and lyrical content were inspired and shaped by Anderson's recently purchased estate in Kilmarie on the Isle of Skye, Scotland, as well as the salmon farming business which he was beginning to embark upon at the same location. The track "Dun Ringill" is named after the historic site of an Iron Age fort on the Isle, which served as the original seat of the Clan MacKinnon. The lyrics for "Old Ghosts" were inspired by the graveyard in Kilmarie, while "Warm Sporran" references the type of pouch traditionally worn with a kilt.
