All credit for Martin and his band for bringing the music to the peoples...I mean, some of these places in Canada are quite off the beaten path. Very cool.

Sad news indeed. An excellent human being and a first class Tull fan and Rock and Roll man. I only met him once but between that and our online interactions, public and private, I can say with confidence that he was a unique, admirable, wonderful person. I am glad he retired when he did and had some golden years, albeit too few, for family and Tull world. I hope his family takes some comfort and joy in his huge public persona, admired and loved. Graham will be eternally missed among our tribe. I'm getting sadder and sadder just writing this. 'The song ends too soon for us all'. Goodbye Maddogfagin....Cheerio.

Will Sergeant, in his Autobiography, 'Bunnyman' gives Tull a lot of love and props. He was a true fan in his teen and pre-punk years. Years later, Echo and the Bunnymen recorded at Barlow's studio.

A VERY VERY VERY qualified and thoroughly expert Tull savvy source, whose privacy I will respect ( well, okay, rhymes with Hemy) assures me that Joe Parrish has injected profound shot of youth, life and excitement into our favorite band and that Tull and Ian are hitting on all pistons and delivering fantastic concerts, just now. See you in late 2023....If Tull doesn't come to me, I'm going to Tull.

Tull Tull Tull...everywhere that I'm not. I just hope Ian doesn't retire before me so I can address the situation with some legwork and airplane tickets.

Amazon Prime 'unlimited', which is limited, doesn't even have the original release, let alone hint of the extra songs. Too bad because they are great.

Talk about an enviable mix: Tull the best band ever and Cadiz, a beautiful, magical place.

As far as I am concerned, the only appropriate sister city would be Bethlehem ( occupied West bank, not Pennsylvania)

Ron is right. Seeing recent words from Patti almost as good as new words from Tull.*

I think I like the Working John that was recorded with SFTW sessions a little better. It's a half step more aggressive.

Joe Scmoe, Live Jive....the headline is TULL PLAYING TWO MORE NEW SONGS. They both sound pretty, pretty great to me...as do Black Sunday, Clasp and Zealot Gene.

I personally think the cold war ended because important Soviets wanted more Tull. There are numerous pictures of Ian with Gorbachov and one with a young Putin ( boo, hiss) backstage at a Tull gig. Don't believe me? Look closely at the so called 'birthmark' on Gorby's skull. Clearly a LITP logo. The Soviet empire self immolated so Tull could tour more frequently and easily behind the old iron curtain. Zappa and Lou Reed get a lot of play in the story of the Czech resistance and march toward western values but Ian did the heavy lifting.

How can you begrudge sending your money to someone who keeps their purple carpet so clean?

Whatever else is happening in the picture, it is weird that Jackie Kennedy drove up in a red sports car with not Ari Onassis nor John Kennedy.

For awhile, Theakston Ale was pretty Tull authorized.

If my daughter came home and said she had walked all night on Velvet Green I would ask her to wipe her feet before she trailed blades of grass or mud throughout the nice clean house that I managed to sweep up while she was out on Velvet Green.

A flicker of hope for live Tull in 2023 for me. I wonder if I can get them to play my retirement party on June 23, 2023.
