I used to buy NME every week just to see if there was any news about Tull in it and to see 'Tour dates' mentioned I'd have been very excited to see that on the front page Same here. It was like the enthusiasm that I used to have for the 'Bunty' went to 'Jackie' and then NME! Not forgetting the lyrics magazine - I've forgotten the name Ha! Sitting memorising the lyrics of songs with way more enthusiasm ever shown for school work. Record Song Book was the title But down my way in Sutton where I worked, it was Melody Maker, Sounds and Beat Instrumental

I remember all of those too, look at the prices....7.5 pence......those were the days. Mind you I got just under £6 per week back then....unbelievable!

NEW MUSICAL EXPRESS1 February 1969 JETHRO — THE NEW BREEDIan Anderson and Jethro Tull belong to a new generation of British pop — beget by a new generation of thinking young people. It is a generation that was at school, or were teenage fans, when the Beatles and Stones were first infusing life into a tired scene. Now, having come of age, they are in the process of electing their own musical spokesmen to the pop hierarchy. www.tullpress.com/nme1feb69.htm

NEW MUSICAL EXPRESS 28 June 1969
Almost at No.1, but . . . SUCCESS HAS COME HONESTLY — WE'RE NOT A BIT ASHAMEDNick Logan sees JETHRO TULL off at start of two-month AMERICAN tour. The hairies are within striking distance of No.1 — a prospect that raises little but a twinkling of eye and a bristling of beard from Jethro's Ian Anderson. It should have been the thought of their two-month US tour that was uppermost in his mind when I met up with half the group for the drive to London Airport on Thursday but Ian, with hairy aplomb, retorted: "It's just a gig." www.tullpress.com/nme28jun69.htm

NEW MUSICAL EXPRESS 13 March 1971 "I AM MUCH TOO PIG-HEADED TO HAVE PROSTITUTED MY MUSIC"Ever since they blew south from bracing Blackpool with their eccentric, fiercely-guarded originality and enthusiastic naiveté which time has honed to enthusiastic musical flair, Jethro Tull have been something of an isolated outfit ... seeming intent on maintaining a very tight, self contained capsule of existence that feeds on and generates itself totally from within. www.tullpress.com/nme13mar71.htm

NEW MUSICAL EXPRESS 11 April 1970SUCCESS WITH SINGLES DIDN'T WORK SAY JETHRO — from now on we're finished with them Jethro Tull are finished with releasing singles. After aiming a nimble boot up the rear at the sagging chart scene, the group has rethought its policy towards the single and in future — apart from the occasional track taken from an album and released as a 45 to boost sales — intends to put itself solely to producing LPs. Benefit: New Tull album Track-by-track by Nick Logan & Ian AndersonJETHRO TULL: “BENEFIT” Chrysalis stereo ILPS 9123, 39s 11d; released April 24 “BENEFIT” won’t startle as “Stand Up” did viewed in relation to “This Was.” It is more an affirmation of the leap in a new direction they took on the last… with what they did then improved upon, fuller, mellower and more mature… an album that will unfold to growing pleasure with each play. It comes across simpler on the surface than “Stand Up” but is in fact more complex once you get past the insistent riffs and phrases to the nub of the song, and that’s where the cleverness of the construction comes in. Like peeling away layers. link

Jethro Tull Sing, Frankenstein If you turn the corner and suddenly find them in front of you .... GO INSANE ...": They look very ugly and they do everything to be more ugly every day. But if you go to one of their concerts you go crazy: They are very good and able to be always new and always better !!! Italian Translation by Google
