Re: Jethro Tull
The late 60's to early 80s Jethro Tull are, and always will be my all-time favorite line-ups. Just thinking of the many, many magnificent Tull shows I've had the privilege to attend during this period sends chills down my spine. I can live with Anderson's voice problem, what I can't understand is the changing line-up that can very from show to show. One Tull show in 2006 didn't include Martin Barre. The Tull that is touring as we speak is Anderson, Martin Barre, and three sidemen and or woman depending on the show. Some shows will feature Ian's son, James "Duncan" Anderson on drums in place of Doane Perry. Aside from Doane, Martin and Anderson, NOT ONE of the other players have EVER appeared on a Tull album.
^^Like so many other artists it's hard to "Let Go", and Ian is no different. I have already mentioned the fact he can't pull off the vocals anymore earlier in this thread, and should concentrate on his instrumental works instead.
No matter what the body of work he and Tull have left us is stupendous, one of my top ten bands of all time.
