Jethro Tull (Official Thread)

[LG]

I love this song.I need the Tull experts to give me more info on this gem

I've got that song, it's on a 5 album vinyl edition of "20 Years of Tull". I got it at the flea market a couple months ago, my friend Terry kept it for me even though I never mentioned it. He knows I am a Tull Fanatic and I'm glad he did.

This edition is perfect, the guy who owned it played the records once then put it on the shelf. I wished all my used records were of this quality.

^^That's the edition I bought, 47 Pounds is more than I paid for mine but for Tull fans it's got a lot to offer.

Very difficult to get hold of in escellent condition these days I would have thought LG.

Skipping ahead to todays collectables, has anyone got the latest Jethro Tull offering of Living In the Past that was produced for Record Stores Day?



There seems to be loads on ebay at the moment but all at different prices. I may have to get the credit card out

Anyone know what a suitable price would be to get it ?

^^I missed that one Jeffrey...and record store day got past me too.

But I've spent a lot in the used records shops this winter so I've got most of the albums I want now.

I'll check our stores here and see what the Living in the Past CD is going for.

Sorry LG I forgot to say it is a vinyl single @ 33rpm with one of the tracks remixed by Stephen Wilson. Record Stores Day was last weekend and at the moment I do not know how many were pressed for the event but maybe it was around 1000 copies.

Then they might not have even shipped any over here...I'll still check and see next weekend, but I'm not big on singles anyway even though I love that song.

^^I was wondering what Martin was up to these days. Not sure old Tull songs really need a 'refit' but he might surprise us.

Ian Anderson Says His Next Album Will Be Folk-Prog-Metal Hybrid

Ian Anderson promises new music in 2014. And while he knows what direction the project will take (it’s a concept album), details — like whether or not it will be a solo record or a Jethro Tull LP — are still up in the air. Either way, Anderson says it will be a folk-prog-metal hybrid.

It looks like he’s aiming for a release date sometime around Easter 2014. Anderson plans to begin recording in December and the first tour for the new album will begin in the U.K. in April.

“Further tours throughout 2014 will feature the new material in a more theatrical setting … together with a selection of the best of Jethro Tull,” Anderson wrote in a blog post on Jethro Tull’s website. But even he seems to be undecided about the new record’s final destination: “‘Is this to be an Ian Anderson album or a Jethro Tull album?’ I hear you ask. Not sure, really, I reply, if somewhat evasively …”

The new record will be more aggressive than 2012′s ‘Thick As a Brick 2,’ Anderson’s latest album. That means “much less acoustic guitar from me and more flute and heavier guitar sounds,” Anderson said.

He also put a tentative release date on the remixed and remastered edition of Tull’s ‘A Passion Play’ and ‘The Chateau D’isaster Tapes,’ which became the band’s sixth album. The sale of the group’s old record company has pushed the release to early 2014, according to Anderson.
