Just finished listening to this album. If you're expecting a good album - you cannot be disappointed. There are some bits taken from the original TAAB album, "What-ifs, Maybes And Might-have-beens," "Old School Song" and "From A Pebble Thrown." Absolutely love it, a good mixture softness and heaviness a'la Aqualung. It is a shame it's not labeled as Jethro Tull. But Ian Anderson still can show how to make a prog album with the style of the early 70s.

Also "Banker Bets, Banker Wins" would be my favourite track off this album.

Still listening to the album and it is a winner, a really great vibe to it. Nolo is right, shame it's not under the Jethro Tull banner but hey we can't have everything. Still may buy a ticket and see him in Sheffield this year

Old School song is a bit of a classic, nice bit bit of keyboard at the start and of course some great flute from the man, this album needs to be purchased and needs to be in my collection

I haven't got my copy yet...I'll remedy that shortly.

It is free on Jethro Tulls facebook site at the moment that is where I have listened to it as it is not out in UK yet

LG doesn't have a Facebook page, so unfortunately he has to wait until it comes out next week.

Sent the kids off to bed so we could get on the PC to listen to the facebook stream.

A fine collection of songs though not sure about the spoken parts but I am sure this will change when we get the album.

Not even Jethro Tull will move me to GET on FB...

I just assumed when I read your post quickly that somehow or other You had got a copy already.

This is in the Automatic file for me, as soon as it's out I will have it in my hands.
