@ bookends_smile: yes, from what I have read, the two songs "cheap-day return" and "nursie" refer to the same day, when Ian was visiting his dad in hospital.

Every great artist has a period during his career when he could write about used toilet paper and actually make it sound great! If you ask me, Ian Anderson was at this very period in his career when he wrote the tracks for the Aqualung LP. This little diddy is about absolutely NOTHING, and yet it sounds SO GREAT! Glad it made it on the album.

WhereWasBiggles: I like your interpretation, and I think it DOES give us a glimpse into the workings of Ian Anderson's mind... and why I like listening to him. Thanks for sharing it. 1

Unexpected greatness. The "lost" track on Aqualung.

I wow not about here about this tune... I dont understand, to be it is a wonderful piece... Short but so sweet and soft... I agree it does not fit the aqualung's concept album... But I'm still glad Ian decided to put it in there... I think it kind of speaks for itself... I'd like to have a demonstration of the soft shoe shuffle dance... So I could have an idea of what it looks like... I also wonder if the nurse here is the same person has in the song ''Nursie'' from the living in the past album??

Ian had been visiting his father, seriously ill in hospital in Blackpool. Whilst waiting for a connecting train to London, at Preston station (Lancashire), he sketched this song, about the experience of visiting. He may have been joking, but Ian claimed the song would have been longer, but the train arrived!
