Jethro Tull Appreciation Thread

Sorry that I had messed up my links, but the one I originally put up was a wrong one.

I see now with the solo version link you put up that it is the same vocal (with acc.) piece I originally wanted to, and hereby, send you.

I think the major difference I hear is your piece is in minor mode, and I believe that VG is basically major mode. But I can be wrong, and maybe I don't focus on the right part of the quite complex Tull song...

This is an exquisite little axe; what is it? I have never seen it before. A very early form of "parlour guitar"?

Again, sorry for the goof!

 

The part my wife and I kept hearing was "with your legs in the air" melody during Velvet Green. Not that it's exact, but we both did hear it. Maybe it's just us or we've been listening to too much Tull! Ha!

"...which is important, but has nothing to do with grain production".

 

Thick as a Brick is like food and water...

Barre in "Excalibur" Rock Opera Touring Germany, Switzerland in January

Tull's lead guitarist Martin Barre is one of the musicians on the current fourteen-night German/Swiss tour of the Celtic rock opera "Excalibur." "Excalibur" is the legend of all legends: created by a deity, predicted by a sorcerer, and acquired by a king – an ancient mystery which is now unraveled by music. Martin shares the musical stage with an impressive list of players including Alan Parsons, Fairport Convention (including Dave Pegg), and John Helliwell ("Supertramp") among others.

For tickets/tour dates and details including song samples, check out the "Excalibur" website. http://www.excalibur-show.com/

Interesting enough

These fantastic airchecks from WMMR’s archives are from an era when radio was truly great. They feature the talents of DJs like Michael Tearson, David Dye, and a personal favorite, Luke O’Reilly who was famous for playing the Jethro Tull’s Thick as a Brick in its entirety the day the album was released.

I bought Christmas Album when it came out years ago.
I bought new one including St.Bride Christmas Concert in London played two years ago.It is particular,of course because of the readings by Ian and some othrers,but i've found even better then the first C.A.It seems to me "complementary".I really love and advice the new one.M.

 

Don't have most of their albums but "Thick As A Brick" is in my top-ten list ever, "Stand Up" is a disc that's often spinning in my CD player and "Aqualung" is a very good one as well... I also enjoy "Living In The Past" and "Bursting Out".
All in all Tull is my favourite prog band after Yes (I could not live without "Fragile").

 

Welcome to the Italian crew.
