the concert reviews on Ticketmaster, have been horrid.. looks like somebody submitted a bunch of single-star reviews, trashing Ian for poor vocals, and weak song selections

That has always been the worry, the years have not been kind to Ian's voice which was unique to begin with.

In the studio on his last couple of albums he sounds fine, but there is a huge difference between that and playing a live show in front of an audience.

I can't remember if I've posted this before, a resplendent cover of Peter Green's "Man Of The World" from Ian Anderson. I've never heard the original bettered but this is a good version.

^^That is a nice cover, but I'm not familiar with Peter Green's original Old Ent...:think:

^^^It's actually one of my favourite tunes LG and the early Fleetwood Mac nailed it. It's kind of a chilling insight into Peter's struggling state of mind.

^^I've always liked War Child myself and have no idea why critics panned it back in the day, and yes I enjoy "Bungle In The Jungle", my sister bought the 45 single when it came out all those years ago.:heheh:
