Great find, really interesting. I was hoping for a low-key acoustic album, but I'll sure take a 70s-sounding one too!
My French is awful, and I'm assuming something is being lost in the google translation... (Paraphrasing): "Some members have died and some are dying soon, Ian smiles". I mean, we all know the headmaster can be crass, but that sounds a little much!
So Ian hints at resurrecting the Tull name. Not for a legacy project like String Quartets, but for a new album. Thoughts? Personally, I wouldn't really begrudge him, but I kind of wish he wouldn't.
Regards /sam

Regards /sam Nothing wrong with it sounding like 70s Tull but I would argue that as IA has produced some fine work under his own name (TAAB2 and Homo Erraticus for example) so why not carry on doing this.

I'd be fine with another installment of TAAB2 and HE quality new music. More than fine.....overjoyed is closer. I remember how the little hints of TAAB2 ( Old School Song fragment from studio) and HE ( Enter the Uninvited intro) sounded during those gestation periods...and look forward to that stage and feeling again soon.

That's interesting. Given the slightly, err, 'vague' nature of the translation, I read the bit about '1970s Tull' as a remark from the interviewer (or maybe IAN) that all this activity on various projects, coupled with the touring, was like things were in the 1970s, with tour followed by album followed by tour. But it would be great if Ian was actually promising a 70s-sounding album for next year. But, like others, I'd happily take another album of the quality and inventiveness of TAAB2 or HE. Interesting times!

Sounds good to me and I haven't heard it yet. Tull did a lot of fast advancing and changing in the 1970's, and there are many stylistic options not followed up on because of that. So revisiting the 1970's band accomplishments and blending it with current inclinations, talents, skills, creative intentions, etc., would no doubt find loads of opportunities.

I would love to know if the new "Rock opera" songs which were plaid live will be included in the new studio album. I also would love to know if Ryan O'Donnel will be involved in the new album, since they say it will be a 70s sounding album, I hope he will. Unless with 70s Ian means his age and not the 1970s!

On a tangent beside a ladder of quesswork, I wonder if the extra many months between the original start of recording for this 2019-release album and it's final release date mean that there will be that many more musical creations floating around as extras. What a topic to wonder on. Will they be left as releases at a later date? Will they be considered demos to morph to alter later into songs on albums after that? Will they merge and evolve into a vast new single-song double-sided theatre production starring people looking slightly familiar? We've already seen on many occasions that Tull previously recorded almost an entire second career's worth of music (20th anniversary first releases, all the extras released since, etc.) that never made it onto album releases. If the 2019 release has a single CD's worth of music on it (55-80 minutes worth?), then there could be another 30 minutes of whatever in the ether of possibilities being created this year and next, with no logical residence except a future collection, single releases in High Definition (24/96) or something like that, morphed into a new album for 2020 or 2021, or who knows? There can be no answers to these questions before about summer 2019, or maybe long after that. See, this is what's so interesting about creativity..............................

In the notes of the 50 for 50 booklet it is said that the new album scheduled for 2019 will be a solo record by Ian Anderson and not a new album by Jethro Tull

Since this is going to be a 70's style Tull album, these are some things I would love to see (for old times sake). A bit of the classic Tull from each part of that decade, to include:
1. Lots of heavy breathing / snorting during flute solos. 2. A mention of the name "Biggles" wouldn't hurt. 3. A follow-up to Wond'ring Again. 4. A song involving a furry animal, perhaps a swallow. 5. Another song featuring the sounds of Scotland. 6. The "old rocker" is reincarnated and finds himself as an eighteen-year old, sitting in the front row of a 2018 Tull show (still drinking his ale too light, of course). 7. Some years ago, Jack in the Green heard the song Budapest and hunted the girl down and they're Alive and Well and Living in Stepney Green. 8. They guy from Skating Away is now 70 years old, and though it sounds like he's putting on a pair of skates, he's actually doing the dishes. 9. In Warchild II, the guy takes his wife's advice and stays for another cup of tea and decides to watch the war on TV. 10. In the promotion video for the new album, James Hetfield finds himself in Orwell's Room 101 kicking and screaming in horror as he is presented with a flute-playing geriatric Gerald Bostock, instead of O'Brien. Hetfield is reduced to insanity then comes to accept the flute as a heavy metal instrument.
Anyway, that's what I'd like to see. Ian is the only guy out there with the sense of humor to do it.

Great list of ideas. Perhaps another song about being forced to go to Sunday school followed by going ape sh1t in front of his old/new headmaster.

Okay.... haven’t heard a word yet this year and here comes February. Did Ian visit the muse on Jan1? I know that half of the album is supposedly finished but am anxious to get confirmation that the project is stil moving forward.

I'm guessing it's all progressing as these things do - I'm waiting for the new song titles to appear in the set lists or on utube before the end of the year.
