Going on tour with Wetton, Anderson and Holrodt!! - Jeffrey's a dark horse

Alas it is not me. Took the text from Martin's web site.

But if he'd like to give me guitar lessons I am sure I could fit into his band somewhere or, if not, perhaps making the sandwiches for the interval or humping the amplification onto the stage.

You see I am a frustrated roadie at heart

Here's a great old song from Heavy Horses, I am going to play this record later today. I was inspired by my Cat, she has found a "mouse factory" and brought home 4 of them the last few days, she doesn't eat them just plays with them. There is no stopping her instincts either and bringing them in the house is her way of sharing dinner with the rest of the herd.

The Mouse Police Never Sleeps.

I always liked No Lullabies from that album. That is a cool tune as well.

^^No Lullaby was the song Tull started the concert I saw with...that was the Heavy Horses support tour Khor.

 

[Khor1255]

Unfortunately the first Tull concert I saw was in the 90s. The good part is ELP was the opening act.

From the Nightcap unreleased masters album "Broadford Bazaar" a cracking tune IMO.

I think my fav three Jethro Tull albums are ;

Heavy Horses

Song's From The Woods

Stormwatch

 

[LG]

Those are among my favorites too Cyggy. Songs from the Wood is my pick, Sox Loves Stormwatch and you took Heavy Horses...a Tull Trifecta.

Hi LG , I have been listening to Stormwatch over and over the last couple of days , it's like being back with a good olde friend again .

I just gave a copy to my youngest son to digest , Orion has so much beauty and Dunringhill is hypnotic , a truly masterful work . Piano plus string accompaniments are also beautifully arranged .

 

[LG]

^^That's great you are getting your son to give Stormwatch a listen.

I enjoy that myself, digging out an old album and discovering it's charm all over again.

Nice to have another Tull fan in the mix with us other addicts.
