Interesting comments from Ian. What the hell has happened to his voice? Sounds as if he was singing in a higher key, the guitar sound was pretty awful as well. I prefer the original it’s much more solid.
Thanks for posting the file. It was different.

Re: Jethro Tull
oldhippy. Look on youtube for any interview with Ian before 1985 or 1986 and you will see he is always smoking. He had an operation on his throat in the mid-80s and hasn't really sounded the same since...

Re: Jethro Tull
Ian had developing a serious throat infection under Under Wraps tour 1984 (he was smoking 40 cigarettes per day in that time + under wraps album songs was very difficult to perform live on stage, actually). All that resulting in serious throat problems and his voice was never a same after that.

Back Against The Wall (The Wall tribute album)Hudini wrote:Speaking of Jethro Tull, Waters once said that he got the inspiration for The Thin Ice from Jethro Tull's Skating Away On The Thin Ice Of The New Day. Do you know this song? It's on Warchild album, and to me makes no resemblence of anything Waters put to paper except the ice in the title. What do you think?
THE THIN ICE
Ian Anderson - vocal, flute
Adrian Belew - guitar, vocal
feature: Tony Levin, Gary Green, Jay Scheleen, & Billy Sherwood

Re: Jethro Tull
I did that, and was looking forward to an expanded "Benefit", but it looks like we get a major Aqualung instead...Hogtown wrote:I shall purchase a copy of the three disc version of Stand Up after work today.

Re: Jethro Tull
Oh my, the fall of 2011 is turning into a huge cash grab for so many aged bands . The 40th Anniversary Aqualung is out. The highlight for me is Wond'ring Aloud, Again [Full Morgan Version] - 7:07.
EDIT: The booklet name drops Pink Floyd as a Prog band.

Re: Jethro Tull
So, Ian Anderson is going to release Thick as a Brick 2 in a couple of months as a solo album. Weird.

Re: Jethro Tull
Artistically pointless. I'm pretty sure it's just a way to get a few more tull fanatics to give a shit about his solo career. If Roger Waters did The Wall part 2 it would definitely outsell Amused To Death etc.nosaj wrote:So, Ian Anderson is going to release Thick as a Brick 2 in a couple of months as a solo album. Weird.

outside of the christmas disc ten years back there hasnt been a studio release since .com so i look forward to it, it really would be wonderful if they released a concert from the thick as a brick tour as part of an upcoming deluxe edition . certainly my favorite and their masterpiece. looking forward to a us trek this fall
