Subject: More Choreography...Not Less!

The question was raised: "Should Ian tone down the choreography?"

I thought at first he should have cancelled his shows when he broke
his leg. But apparently those shows have been getting very positive
reviews. However, I still think it would upset me too much to see Ian
performing from a wheelchair.

When Ian is FULLY recovered, I expect the choreography (ie: motion)
will return. If I were to venture a guess: I'd say it will return IN
FORCE! After spending a few months in a wheelchair, I think he'd be
itching to run around the stage again. Maybe he should just tone down
the jumping.

I always loved Tull live because of the extra effort he put into the
theatrics of the show! As far as I'm concerned, Tull live can never
have too many props, too many jokes, or too much action.

I'm looking forward to next year's shows. I imagine he'll be back with a
vengeance.

I'm sorry, but no. No, *No*, NO!! Ians voice is better on RTB than on anything
since BatB. He's using what he has better than on previous albums. I certainly
don't think Tull is concerned about selling records either. The key to Tull's
longetivity is their diversity, and the fact that they continually re-invent
themselves. Sorry, but I must disagree with this one :)

Subject: questions

Hi,
My name is Stefan Pastrama, I am 33 and I am a professor from Bucharest,
Romania. Although I have been a Tull fan since 1981, I only recently
discovered the SCC, and that is why this is the first time when posting to
the SCC. The purpose of my letter is to ask a few question about my favorite
band and I hope to receive some answers from you.
Back in 1994, on 12 June, I attended, together with other 10000 more or
less young people (from 14 to 60 years old) to the first (and I hope not
the only one) Jethro Tull concert in Romania. It was fantastic, and I hope
they will come again in Romania. The members of the band at this concert
were: Ian, Martin, Matthew Pegg, Andy Giddings and Marc Parnell. I would like
to ask: who is now the new bass player, and who is drumming? What happened
with the Pegg brothers? Who is playing on RtB album (of course besides Ian
and Martin)?
The second question is about the album called "Divinities". Being a Tull
fan for so many years, I've listened to all studio and live albums,
from the 1968 "This Was" to the last "Roots and Branches" (by the way: I
was very surprised to see that my 8 years old daughter loves very much
RtB as well as Aqualung!). But it is for the first time hearing (from
SCC) about "Divinities". Maybe someone can tell me about this album
(Tull album?, Ian's solo album? or what?) and can send me the titles of
the songs.

I will be much obliged, if anyone can waste five minutes from his own
time to answer me at the e-mail addresses:

I just noticed on the credits to Gary Moore's "Still Got the Blues" CD that
Don Airey is credited with most of the keyboard work, much of which is Hammond
B3. He plays on such hits as "Oh Pretty Woman". I'm asuming this is the same
Don Airey that used to due those heavy duty synth solos at Tull shows...

Greetings all,
There seem to be rumours (along with a confirmed booking
in Maryland) of an ELP/Jethro Tull double billing tour of the US this
summer. I have tried contacting local ticket agencies but no-one here
knows a thing. Does anyone have any information on this tour?

Many thanks in advance....

Subject: all things tull

Hello!
I was watching Late Night with David Letterman last night, and it was a
repeat of the week of shows he did in London. Anybody see it? Well, during
the part where Dave went around london seeing if he could get people to eat
scons in 15 seconds, Thick as a Brick was playing in the background. I
thought it was very cool.
On a similar note (and also concerning women and tull) I was
watching some stupid talk show about 8 months back--I can't even remember
what the episode was about--but there was this very, very attractive woman
on and when the talk show host asked her what kind of music she liked, she,
without hesitation, said Jethro Tull. So you see, there is a god, and my
future wife is out there somewhere.

So now I come to the topic of Roots to Branches: Why do some fans
endorse this as one of JTs better albums, where others see it as a reason
for Ian to hang up the proverbial gloves? (rhetorical question).
My vote for the album is that it is fantastic. When I first bought it and
gave it a once around on the CD player, I told my roommate that I "hated
it", and that "it was horrible"--Now, after listening to it innumerable
times, I think it is one of JTs best ever musical collection.
-WHY???- For many of us JT has different eras that we all prefer
(call it a hallmark of progressive music). For me, I prefer the years
before Ian's voice really changed (before SftW). CoaK and BatB just didn't
do it for me. I think the answer to why this is is that what ever new music
JT puts out, I just can't seem to get (or rather couldn't) past his voice.
Now, I absolutely love his new music, RtB especially
This brings me to my point: As a great musician, Ian speaks to his
audience (not in the literal sense) through his music. In the late 60's
through the mid 70s Ian was young and had young thoughts, dreams, and views.
For many of the young fans now, this early music is what speaks to them, and
for older fans, this music still speaks, but not quite as loud as it did in
those crazy days of youth. Ian is now older, he has a wife , he has been
divorced, he has two children, and a fish farm. Now Ian's music reflects
those thoughts, dreams, and views of a distinguished musician, a middle aged
farmer, a family man. Ian went from singing the white man's blues on This
Was, to a song about dying before your partner on RtB's AT last Forever.
- ----As sure as Ian Anderson speaks to many generations of fans, so does he
speak to each one of us individually, and I know that all of you out there
have heard a song or line that seemed to talk directly to you as if it had
been written for you.

To young and old, men and women, Ian has been the wind to fill our sails, he
has taken quite a few nails, but he still remains a singer of these ageless
times.
- --BiII--

- -And your wise men don't know
how it feels...

A bit off the JT subject, but how many folks know that a large part of Zep's
"The Lemon Song" come from an old standard, interpreted in a hard driving
fashon by the semi-supergroup, "Electric Flag" a few years earlier, and
entitled "Killin' Floor"?

Also, a folk group (believe it was Peter, Paul, and Mary) did a decidedly
more sedate version of "Gallows Pole" as well.

The point is that music (even rock) has roots, tradition, and history. It's
not all original (and no, I'm not a musicologist).

Subject: A West Coast gig in September!
Date: 19 Apr 1996 20:47:22 GMT
Organization: Infotainment World

I've been meaning all week to post this, and apologies if someone already has.
There's a Tull shed gig coming up in the San Francisco area (finally!) in
September. I think the date is September 24; I'll repost with the actual date
later this weekend. It's at the Concord Pavilion, a good place to see
anyone--although they are doing a remodel that's adding 4,000 seats to the
original 8,000--and Emerson Lake & Palmer are the opening act. Tickets went
on sale Sunday 4/14, but only as part of Concord's series subscriptions that
force you to buy a minimum of four concerts total; I don't know when tickets
for this show alone go on sale. If you're keen on sitting right up front, the
series package would more or less guarantee that; best seats go to those who
buy a six-show package. I'll post series subscription info along with the
correct date.

I'm going to go out on a limb and wonder if Tull/ELP is a package tour that's
hitting the sheds in late summer. One can hope; I haven't seen ELP in years
and they're outside of my listening habits these days (unlike contemporaries
such as Yes, Crimson, and of course JT), but I was an avid fan once and as I
would see Tull under any circumstance anyway, ELP is a total bonus and very
welcome.

cheers, Don St. John

Subject: My two cents' worth on Dun Ringill

Dun Ringill is one of my personal favorite "soft acoustic" Tull
songs. (Others, like "To Cry You A Song","Play in Time", and "Raising
Steam" are among my fave "hard" Tull songs.) I find it's lyrics in the
same genre as those in Broadsword, Beastie, Minstrel..., SFTW,.....;
that of the fantasy/medieval realm. I often use Tull songs for
Role-playing gaming sessions, as I feel it adds mood music and clues
to the players (esp. Divinities.) Regardless of my liking of Tull for
gaming sessions, I find Dun Ringill to be a favorite due to Ian's
acoustic guitar, which has gotten much better in recent years. The
distinguishing feature in Tull often seems to be the flute playing, or
at least until one examines the music closely. The flute is featured
both visually and musically, and seems to dominate on a lot of Tull
tunes. Any reactions, observations, rebuttals? I am not saying this
is a bad thing; quite the contrary; when Martin's guitar wails or
Doane's bongos solo, they clearly wow me to extremes. Just an area I
have never seen discussed. (BTW, did I hear correctly that Martin also
plays flute?! Was this mentioned in regards to Bouree?) Anyway, back
to Dun Ringill. I happened to see it live in concert last summer in
Rochester during the Divinites tour. Excellent light and sound job.
I had the best time in my life at that show; free tickets, good seats,
excellent music...hmmmm:) So, anyway, that is about it for now...hope
to see again sometime, eh? Justin Bishop JX...@uno.cc.geneseo.edu
Blues were my fav'rite colour Till I looked around and found another

Wow! This is the biggest piece of flame bait I've seen in a long
time. Alright, fine ... I'll bite.

Tom, as others on this list have discovered, Ian's more sophisticated
material may take _many_ listens to reveal itself fully. For me,
both Divinities and Roots To Branches fell into this category.
Otherwise, you might want to switch to something less challenging;
like say Boyz II Men or perhaps Metallica.

Subject: Re: The St. Cleve Chronicle V7 #35

I would like to respond vehemently to Tom Giarmo's blatant order that Ian
"go back and do what he does best."
I would think that Mr. Giarmo would know better than most, being a Tull fan
for 25 years, that Tull has always been a progressive rock band. They have
run the gamut of blues, blues rock, acid rock, hard rock, soft rock, folk
rock, Celtic music (rock, folk, etc.), acoustic, classical, and electronic to
name some of their styles over the years. So when he says that Ian do what
he has done best, isn't that doing new things? things that Tull has not
explored yet? Even if quasi-classical rock and the Eastern "crap" are "passe",
(which I disagree with) Tull has added a different dimension to any genre they
have played. Any new genre that Tull played in would be forever changed, at
least by those who hear Tull play. Perhaps you think I am too confident in the
impact or talent of Ian, Martin, Doane, Andy, and all the other previous Tull
artists and hired musicians, but that's what my idea of a fan is.
So what if the music doesn't sell? I know at least one person who will buy
it, and at this stage in their careers, Tull can do whatever music they want.
Unless I am mistaken about their financial situation, and they need money
more desparately than a college band that is trying to get a contract.
Tull's music is not a product of Chysalis or EMI records to be exploited; it
is a product of Tull's creative musical talent to be listened to and enjoyed.
True, they are getting older. I see Tull as a fine red wine, not as cheese
left in the sun or last week's tuna salad. If you would rather not listen to
Tull, then don't. It's called a radio dial; turn it. It's called a record
store (tho I don't know why; there are no records) ; buy what you want.
If you don't support further Tull endeavors, then don;t support them with your
wallet, but please recognize there are still alot of us who do want to support
them. I love every Tull albumn I have ever heard (except possibly "A") and...
well, I have nothing (further) to say.

Subject: Re: Tull the worst thing!??!!

Hey there fellas,

Just want to reflect on two interesting points brought up today ... nah,
only the first deserves to be branded interesting ... the second was
downright blasphemous!

Rick responded to the following BLASPHEMOUS note:
><Uh-oh. Someone called Tull "the worst thing going in music right now"
><and posted it on the Tull mailing list. ><

.
Here's what Rick said:
>I think many people bailed out on Tull about 20 years ago. Non
d>ie-hard Tull fans own maybe three albums: Aqualung, Thick as a Brick,
>and maybe Songs From the Wood. Although it seems to be a new-found
>favorite, I wonder if Passion Play is to blame? Remember, it came on
>the heels of Thick as a Brick--a critical success--and it was *such* a
>departure from the 70s Tull norm thus far that people were turned off
>by it. ... Too much
>change too quickly.

Rather interesting point, I must admit ... i think Ian was a little to
ambitous too early ... but then Tull has always been known as the kings of
Progressive Rock ... so seen in that light, it adds a completely new
perspective to the argument. Ian was just leading Tull into newer realms.
As always, you win some and lose some ... and that's what happened with
"the large chunk of fans" who dropped out.

But again, this is not an isolated phenomenon in rock music. U2 springs to
mind as a very recent parallel. After Achtung, a lot of fans (including me)
"dropped out." But then the band was brave enought to continue exploring,
to keep heading in that new direction ... and they won back a lot of fans
(count me in!). The Police did kinda the same thing in the early 80s. But,
(thanx to the brilliance of Sting :-) ) they were one of the few bands who
successfully made that leap towards "new" music. Synchronicity was ofcourse
a brilliant success ... that new domain of surreal rock, all the way from
Punk roots. U2 is getting there ...

In Tull's case, one could argue that they had been around for over 5 years
before they made the leap to the artsy Passion. But then Tull never really
had that big a following as U2 or the Police. Again, around the same time
contemporary bands like Pink Floyd, Yes, The Dead were exploring newer
directions ... although a lot of the early ragged headed Floyd and Dead
fans dropped out, their mass appeal was simply far larger than Tull's.

>Songs From the Wood was the big comeback album. Middle of the road
>Tull fans probably also bought Heavy Horses and Stormwatch, and maybe
>War Child.
i wouldn't agree with Warchild ... but definitely Heavy and Storm. Warchild
was again Ian's failed attempt at the rock opera, which had just started to
become a popular pursuit for the '70s supergroups. Although Ian was indeed
one of the earliest to think about a rock opera, Warchild was really quite
a failure. i feel that the rest of the band just hadn't matured enough to
grow with Ian's visionary directions. Definite case of jumping the gun too
early ... Meanwhile, other bands like the Floyd, took it with the flow and
matured handsomely into the brilliant Wall ...

>We all follow Tull ravenously and possibly own every album. We're
>willing to forgive Under Wraps or A or Rock Island.
What about Catfish?

>others, they know Tull by the hits only.
no wonder such people make careless comments about how Tull is the"worst
around"!!!

>kind of interesting to see the way the music has changed over the
>years.
Definitely!

> But
>let's not forget the fact that they've been consistently crankin' out
>rock music since before the guys from Smashing Pumpkins were pooping
>in their diapers! This experience entitles Tull to some modicum of

Why are we defending the boys??? ... the fact that we are all on this list
should suffice to prove our confidence, admiration and love for everything
that is related to Tull. We don't need to defend or respond to opinions
that reflect callow/shallow/pseudo interests.

> I saw a giant leap in quality between Catfish
>Rising and Divinities/Roots. Whether you like the style or not, he's
>gone from being a great flautist to a phenominal one.
HEAR! HEAR! HEAR!

Thanx Rick ... that was well written!

- ----------
The second article that piqued my interest was something that Chuck Singer
wrote:

>The Roots To Branches songs translate much better live than on the
studio cuts...There seems to be a harsh edge to Tull recordings ever
since Crest Of A Knave (IMHO). <

I feel the same way ... I can't put my finger on it but it seems like the
music is kinda broken, fragmented ... not melifluous... but on the other
hand, Divinities sounded God damned melifluous! :-) It's strange ...
What do the rest of you guys feel?

later,
Rohan

Ahh yes..Ian on drugs....hmmm..well in my opinion he wasn't...just an
odd thought but i could list many songs and interviews where he denied
if not outright stated that he was disgusted by them.. As for acid
rock..i don't it was drug influenced through Ian but through the
audience, in miore way than one, first it was acid rock for those that
cheated themselves out of the song by getting high and second, since
Ian mentioned that he was disgusted by hippies yet many attended the
concerts...well...he wrote the music as acid rock...sort of a pied
piper of hamlin (as it were)...he was playing the junkies like a flute.
heh..i made a funny.

as for the new stuff, if you've noticed, Ian and the guys sort of
stuck around the basic type of music like blues, jazz, folk,
classical, rock, ballads, and stuff like that so i could see where a
change from the normal into middle eastern music (RtB) would make the
fans mad....(i mean that in the most sarcastic way possible...Ian
himself couldn't have said that one better)....
You see over the years their style has changed so it didn't surprise
me when the style of RtB was middle eastern..in fact the only style of
music that Ian hasn't mastered is country western music...eck.

There is an odd sense about Ian...we two are very much alike....it
seems i understand exactly where he's coming from in every song...
we share many similar views, we both can pretty much pick up an
instrument and start playing it...though i couldn't get a note out of
a flute to save my life...(odd)...

Thick as a Brick...heh..the eternal question...i basically understand
what he says in TaaB and basically what he means...but there's one
thing that bugs me...the one thing i have no idea what he means...and
that is the title line..."thick as a brick"....my friends have dirty
minds and i'll leave their translation to ya'll...heh...but my guess
is that he's talking about when you think everythings fine and dandy
and then you wake up and realize that you think youre an expert at
what you do and that you look like a normal person and then you
realize that everyone else has no respect for you and think youre a
loser that's wasted his life at what he thinks he's good at and that
he really isn't good at it at all....am i right?

by the way....the person who was flaming some other guy for calling
druggies morons....he said something about a "blanket statement" I
believe that is supposed to be "blatent statement"...oooooi love doing
that...

by the way...if you listen to the lyrics of only solitaire...doesn't
it sound like he's talking about himself from the eyes of another
person...who's name is steve?....eh?

Dear Tullians

Just thought I'd draw your attention to the sleeve notes to the
original vinyl album "Living in the Past" Tracks: "By kind permission
of and Dharma for one....."Recorded live in Carnegie Hall, New York,
on November 4 1970 at a charity concert given by Jethro Tull in aid of
Phoenix House, a New York drug rehabilitation centre..... "

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to film Fairport Convention at the
Continental Cafe, Melbourne, Australia, I was also able to interview
Dave Pegg, Martin Allcock (KB's with Tull '87-'91) and Ric Sanders
(violin on Budapest) Great people!

I have put together the footage to make a 30-min. episode to be shown
on "Melbourne Muso's" 8.30pm 29th April Channel 31. Any Melbourne
Clevians would be very interested I'm sure.

I fund the show myself and am prepared to sell copies of my show to
keep it on the air. The Australian video format is VHS-PAL. If anybody
