I haven't seen the Tull tour schedule yet, but I would assume that the west

Subject: Tull and Pearl Jam
Hi SCCers
This is my first posting to SCC. Last year when I was in India Tull
toured and I went to see them in Bombay. It was spectacular!
I also heard his interview on the radio. He was talking about the new
bands that he likes to listen. He mentioned that he particularly enjoys
listeng to Pearl Jam and Spin Doctors. He also mentioned that Eddie
Vader (is that the correct spelling?) of Pearl Jam listens to Stand Up,
before going on stage during their live concerts. He also mentioned that
he was impressed with the "the angry young man-poet" phenomenon
prevalent in the Seattle bands and he would like his next album to be
done in that style. I dont know what happened after that and we ended up
getting RTB!
One more thing which he talked about was the environmental consciousness
of the rock bands. He said he felt strongly against the rock bands using
their popularity to endorse the environmental issues. He didnt mention
the name of Sting but I think his statement was definitely directed
towards him.
Then talking about the impact of things we do everyday on the environment
all of a sudden he said (paraphrased) "every time the Mccartneys go on a
tour they form a major threat to the environment! Why for that matter,
everytime Linda Mccartney goes to the toilet she has an adverse impact on
the environment!". The interviewer didnt prod him further on this
statement. Anybody ever heard such strong anti-Mccartney feelings before?
Does this have anything to do with the fact that the Mccartneys are
vegetarians and Ian owns a Salmon Farm?
Thought this would be interesting!!
Cheers

Subject: The normal stuff
Hey,
I also have been noticing the increased interest in Tull by younger
folks. I'm 26, so I guess i'm in the middle somewhere. 8^) I think
that there are a lot of newer bands that are producing some good
music, or at least trying to achieve some sort of honest artistic
goals. I may not like it all, but I can hear sincerity. My personal
opinion is that Tull should scrap the rock star concert routine(not
that they are pretentious) and play what they feel like. It would be
a lot more exciting to me to see a show where I didn't know what was
going to be played before I went. I refused to even look at spring
set lists until I saw it for myself, but still I could guess better
than half of the next selections. (Hunting Girl did suprise me,
though) I have nothing against Locomotive Breath or Aqualunt, et al,
but it would mean a lot more to me if I knew that it wasn't the 2345th
time that they had played the damn things this tour. This is just a
personal observation, and I'm sure others will have the exact opposite
feelings. But that is cool with me, too.
On the subject of bootleg CD's, I certainly can't chastise anyone for
buying them, as I have a couple myself. But I believe these things
should be avoided as retail material. For every boot in the tull www
archive, there are probably 100 live recordings of Tull to be had.
since the beginning of live recording capability, someone has recorded
just about everything. And you can find it if you look hard enough.
What actually promted me to post this was a post by some one recently
about the RtB tour boot that he picked up. If I recall, Alex McEwan
(and another) offered copies of this radio broadcast a while back to
everyone here. Most of these live recordings, with a few exceptions,
don't even warrant being placed in digital medium, except perhaps for
archiving puposes. If you don't like analog, consider this. For the
price of a 10-12 concert lenght boot cds, you can get an entry level
DAT machine and the tapes to put the stuff on. And nobody in Italy
makes a dime. And as an added bonus, when you buy a blank tape, the
royalty is automatically figured into the price. Of course, the
recording industry thieves don;t look a lot different to me than any
others. But these are just my thoughts. I am not trying to tell
anyone what to do. I'm just offering an alternative to the bootleg
thing. Ask the several people I have volunteered to spin live Tull
for. Live music is where it's at! People are going to get what they
want, whether it's abortions, drugs, or "unauthorized" live
recordings. The stuff is out there for free, so go get it.
That ought to stir things up for a millisecond or two. 8^)

Subject: remixing and remastering
Could someone please tell me what is really meant by "Remixing",
and "Remastering", and what is the difference between the two?
This doesn't directly have anything to do with Jethro Tull, except
that I have heard that the old albums may soon be remastered (I think
that was mentioned here in the SCC). What would that really mean, for
them to be "remastered"?
Also, I just got the 25 yrs boxed set, which has one CD of "remixed"
tracks. A few of these sound better (like A Song for Jeffery and
Teacher), but most of them sound very little different from the album
versions. So what is the big deal with remixing?
By the way, what are other people's opinions of the 25 yrs set;
I'm not quite as thrilled with it as I hoped I would be, considering
what it cost me.

I don't know who did it originally, but when I saw Tull for the first time

Subject: CD Track Numbers and Compla
A couple wandering thoughts from v.7 #23...
Re>rde...@IslandNet.com (Rod Deacon)
(Rod mentioned in vol.7#23 that he was frustrated by the lack of track
numbers on recent Tull releases -- because it made programming his CD
player a pain...)
Perhaps you could look at the ommission of track numbers as a blessing;
as a pleasant relief from the complacency of modern technology. Be happy
that Tull's catalog has not become McMusic, neatly packaged for fast
consumption. Delight in the routine of walking to the phonograph to turn
an album over (rather than switching CDs with a remote control). Enjoy
the fact that counting the songs on a CD makes you look over song titles
you may have forgotten. If you're doing this frequently, you'll remember
the songs in their place on the disk, rather than just remembering a
series of track numbers.
This may seem petty, but not from a band that has produced "trackless"
albums like TaaB and aPP. The naming of the songs, their order on the
album, cover art, liner notes, and tiny details such as numbering the
tracks are actually rich facets of the album's whole experience. Like
the depth of Ian's lyrics, such details are ripe with significance, and
not merely a record company's oversight.
Or maybe not. See what Chrysalis/EMI says. I bet they --or the band--
very intentionally omitted the track numbers. Beware McComplacency and
reliance upon convenience in today's society and especially in your Tull
music. As Tom Robbin's character, the Chink (in _Even Cowgirls Get the
Blues_) says: "If it gets sloppy, eat it over the sink."
Re>Luck...@aol.com, Jack-A-Lynn (in vol.7 #23)
I agree that Jack-A-Lynn's a great song, but I must admit that whenever I
hear it now, I can't help but laugh and remember a radio interview
(broadcast nation-wide in the US) with Ian, Martin, and Dave Pegg back
during the Catfish tour. [I have the interview on tape, by the way.]
During the call-in section of the interview, a woman named Glenda called
in with a live question. Here's my rough transcription:
Glenda: "I was wondering about a song called Jack-A-Lynn from the box
set."
Ian: "Yes--"
G: "I was just wondering if that song was written for John Glascock."
Ian: "No, no it wasn't at all, really. Now you're all going to go 'awww'
at this, but Jackalyn is my wife's middle name."
Dave: "Why did she think it was associated with John?"
Ian: "Yeah, why did you think it was associated with John Glascock?"
G: "Well---- uh----- I just thought------- because of John and Jack------
you know------"
[uproarious laughter from the rear of the studio]
Ian: "Well, that's a pretty good association there, Glenda--"
Dave: "--The J-J thing--"
Ian: "Perhaps it was a subconscious association..."
[the laughter continues...]
So, in the midst of all the lyrical analysis and interpretion here on the
pages of the SCC, perhaps that's a good watermark for us all. If you're
ever afraid to hazard a wild interpretaion of Ian's lyrics, take heart
from brave Glenda!
I know this all adds up to zero to the tenth, but thanks for listening.
Cheers,
GREG
P.S. another call-in from the interview:
Japanese Girl: "Ah, dis is question: how does Jesro Tull define success?"
Ian: "Ooh, that's a deeply philosophical question. I'll have to think
about that. Dave Pegg, how do you define success --without mentioning
any particular brand of alcohol?"
Dave: "Well, it's hard, really, without mentioning alcohol-- success is
being locked in the pub after closing."

RE: "Chuck Singer's" St Cleve Chronicle comments about VELVET FLUTE:
RE: "I picked up a Boot CD the other day called The Velvet Flute.
The sound quality is incredible, (DDD), Album Quality, and I can hear
no discernable mistakes in the performance. The quality is every bit
as good as the recent In Concert - at the Hammersmith Odeon, 8th
October 1991 release."
I agree, this is an excellent boot. I picked it up in early April.
Great sound quality and the performance is seamless.
As for the performance quality, I have a boot from the 1994 tour, and
the group's material in 1995, with the "Divinities" and "Roots to
Branches" material is far superior to the rehashed oldies show they
were doing... the new material translates very well to concert, proving
that Tull is still viable and going strong after all these years. I
only wish Page/Plant, the Kinks, etc would stop doing their travelling
oldies shows and play more new material, like Jethro Tull. Can it be
that Jethro Tull is the last of the viable (second wave) British
invasion bands? I'd always thought the Kinks held that title (The
Kinks were in the first wave of the British invasion, but just to make
the point).
In comparing the 1994 and 1995 boots, there is also a distinct
difference in the "feel" of the performances. The newer 1995 stuff
seems more textured, evenly-paced, and atmospheric <Thought to Myself:
"I will not use the term 'New Age,' I will not use the term 'New Age,'
ad infinatum...">, and Tull's overall performance quality seems more
cogent.
RE: "Somebody posted that Tull is doing all the weakest material,
including At Last, Forever on the current tour. One listen to the
live version of this song, will change your mind...It absolutely makes
the studio version look weak in comparison."
I agree whole-heartedly. "At Last, Forever" is wonderful in
concert... very moving, actually. Nothing "weak" about it. "Roots to
Branches" is an excellent opener too....
Velvet Flute is an excellent boot, and while I don't have a stake in
the company that produces, I highly recommend it.... or if you're
interested in a little <ahem> "deal," email at YME...@Prodigy.com.

Dear fellow Tullsters -
Does anybody know if the hieroglyphs on the "Divinities" album cover have
any meaning, or are they just something Bogdan Zarkowski dreamt up? I know
that the weird symbols on the cover of BatB are actually the first verse of
"Broadsword." Since "Divinities" has no lyrics, I doubt that these symbols
are a quote from the album.

Subject: Tull in Atlanta
A brief review of the Atlanta show.
Yes, its been 2 weeks but I was out of town.
Here goes.
This was the best concert I've seen by them since Stormwatch.
I must add that I think RTB is also their strongest album since Stormwatch
with the most interesting and intricate writing, structures and arrangements
ever (?). It's quite a departure but, hey, artists NEED to grow - as do
audiences.
Ian was in a wheelchair but that only seemed to energize the rest of the
band. His singing was about as good as it'll probably get and may have been
enhanced by his inablity to run and jump around the stage - though he did
wheel about. Everyone did a great job.
The playlist has changed a bit since the fall leg of the tour. They've
dropped a few RTB songs and added a few older ones.
I just wish they'd played This Free Will (which they've never played live)
just to hear Martin's incredible guitar on this song.
Roots To Branches
Thick as a Brick (standard edit)
Hunting Girl
Mother Goose (absolutely wonderful ! !
with 2 recorders played by Andy and Martin)
In the Grip of Stronger Stuff
Misere (from Martin's Solo album)
Dangerous Veil
Beside Myself
Aqualung - very long version with different opening and
closing. The end section featured solos by everybody.
INTERMISSION
Nothing is Easy
Bouree (almost exactly like studio version with Martin on
2nd flute - I've never seen or heard them play it
this concisely before - very nice)
We used To Know - I've always loved this song and this was
a very nice version
In the Moneylender's Temple

vocal choir that is on the original album version
Something from one of Martins solo albums

Hello,
In the grocery store the other day I heard over the store's inhouse music
system a Muzak-type version of Skating Away on the Thin Ice of the New Day.
Actually it was a rather nice version (instrumental).
A flute took the melody line throughout.
The arrangement was typical muzak stuff (strings mostly - definately no
accordion) but it was kind of refreshing to hear a song I knew AND enjoyed.
Keep your ears open. Tull appears in unexected places.

Hmmm. Valid, but there's been precious little evidence presented to
show that they do - the fact that something makes sense to one person
only in the light of drug experience doesn't mean that other people
can't relate to it without. Or indeed, that you're tuning in to what
the originator meant to say. As on some of the alt.fan/alt.book groups,
there seem to be people who won't give up on their pet theory, even
when the person who wrote the material under discussion has clearly
stated their point of view. Unless you can show some actual evidence
that Ian Anderson is lying about his not using drugs, then I think
his version has to be considered definitive.

Interesting choice in Floyd. Their big commercial successes only came
after their 'psychedelic' period, IIRC. I've got a few taped or written
interviews where band members have expressed their embarrassment over
some of the material they performed in the early days, indicating that
drugs were partly to blame for unbelievably self-indulgent performances.
Not that this has anything to do with Tull of course.

But any appreciation of art is subjective, so the best you can hope for
is a different kind of subjectivity, no? I mean you could say "I believe
that so-and-so is the only correct interpretation", but in the absence
of objective supporting evidence, you'd just be pandering to your own
ego. If you can find meanings that make you happy, then fine. But don't
spout the bullshit about your view being valid because you've modified
your attitude chemically, or someone will point out that the converse
also holds good - maybe, just maybe if you hadn't fried your brain, you'd
have found the real truth ;)
