From the Radio Times. BBC Radio 2 for Tuesday 8 March. 11.00 (pm) - The A-Z of AOR 3/6. Bob Harris celebrates the US radio format AOR, today featuring the Appletree Theater, Santana and Jethro Tull. And from the BBC Radio 2 site: Powered by the West Coast experimental music scene, and the release of the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper LP, AOR first burst onto American radio in San Francisco in 1967. It was a revelation, a tour de force of creative programming which empowered its DJs and provided an antidote to the Top 40 hit radio that just wasn't "hip" anymore. By the mid-70s, AOR had become the most successful radio format in America.
The A-Z of AOR plays the biggest hits and the hidden gems from a genre that drove album sales into the triple millions. From Appletree Theater in 1967 through to Porcupine Tree in 2002, via Santana and Jethro Tull, Bob Harris presents another eclectic selection of music from the AOR songbookwww.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00s1njq

BBC 6 Music, Sun 13 Mar 2011
13:00 – 16:00 The Huey Show
Huey talks to Ian Anderson; Ahead of the re-release of his 1983 album Walk Into the Light, Huey chats to the Jethro Tull front man and solo artist about his musical influences, working with an orchestra and how he has maintained such a long and successful career.
Annie Lennox, legendary artist and former neighbour of Huey's embarks upon her residency as Don of "Sharing Is Caring" where she tells us what music we need to have in our lives. Annie talks to Huey about why her chosen track is so important and how it has inspired her own music.
Also in the show, there's "Vinyl Fetish" which, as always, is where you get to pick a song that you'd love to hear, in a way rarely heard in these mp3 days - on vinyl. Get in touch with your suggestions!

Walk into Light re-release? Extra songs? Extra anything? The vocal-less 'End game' that was going around in the early 90's?

From www.bbc.co.uk and The Radio Times. Sun 17 Apr 2011, 15:00, BBC Radio 2. Sounds Of The Seventies
Johnnie Walker remembers the hits of the 70s from prog to pop to punk. This week, he catches up with Ian Anderson ahead of a big UK tour.
Known for his manic stage energy and eccentricity, king of the rock flute Ian Anderson has spent over 40 years in the music industry, at the helm of Jethro Tull. Johnnie chats to Ian about the decade that included the band's best-known work with Aqualung, "the mother of all concept albums" Thick As A Brick, and Anderson's stinging riposte to the sneering of certain music critics Too Old to Rock 'n' Roll: Too Young to Die.
Ian shares the stories behind some of his most popular work whilst reminiscing with Johnnie about their theatrical concerts, diverse influences from folk to prog, and his still hectic touring schedule.
Also on the show Jane Morton from Warwickshire talks about her teacher training college years and moving to London in My 70s and Johnnie spins three gems from a classic 70s album.I think this was the programme originally due to be broadcast back in February but cancelled for some reason.

And speaking of radio...the Aqualung radio birthday has been re-scheduled for August 17th, 8PM PST on KPFA/Pacifica network. It'll take a bit of work to reconfigurate my very raw interview w/ian into quality Q and A but, actually, that's only a part of the plan....songs and a pre-scripted Q and A w/me form the rest of the 60 minutes and i hope to do us proud...I'll certainly be less nervous in conversation with my friend, the radio show host than i was on the phone w/ Ian...much less nervous!

Oh and thanks for sharing OWD - we understand I'm getting rather concerned and worried. BBC radio are playing a lot of Jethro Tull songs at the moment, more than they have done for sometime. That and the constant Jethro Tull being played on Planet Rock, I'm worried they are going to be the next "in thing".

I also heard 'Back to the family' on Michael Ball's Radio 2 show - whilst driving back on Sunday afternoon from our gig at Hardraw Gathering - only I hadn't the bottle to admit I was listening to that man's show! ;D

Basic structure: Strange avenues-why aqualung-aqualung live-why tull-mother goose 71,99...how Tull has eveolved-lost in crowds -he still writes great songs-wwind-up-obvious summary.

I guess I would wonder which Aqualung live and might have reservations about Wind Up as a closer. I know many have an aversion to Bouree due to its nearly constant inclusion in the set list over the past 25 or 30 years, but I remain fond of it, particularly in more recent interpretations, and kind of consider it Tull's alternate classic piece. But otherwise it looks like a keeper, but good luck good buddy and have a great time. Look at Gans askance. Just heard Paulie rippin thru The Night Before on the Wrigley Field camera thingy, I just love it too much. The guy is 69 and even on this contraption he sounds GREAT, much better setlist than in like 76.

the extended version CD...an obvious throw together that i ignored, is down at Ameoba for 3.99...anyone know if the 8 minute 19 second Aqualung is worthy? When? Otherwise I'll chose between the two 78 shows: Bursting out vs MSG....probably Bursting Out unless I hear tell the aforementioned one is special......maybe I'll buy it on spec...not a very impressive song list...why can't it have the wind up intro/passion bit from 1975 that is unfindalble anymore on the 25 year box?

From memory it's a worthy album and for $3.99 quite a steal. Oh go on - you know you want to.

Really looking forward to that Bernie. I believe one could do worse than to "favorite" KPFA which I find to be the most incisive news outlet I am aware of. Cannot point to specific shows, but its usually evident in the title. In general I tune in about 2 hours a week. Also the station where the Grateful Dead were born back around 59 when a young intern named Phil Lesh met a up and coming bluegrass folkie named Jerry Garcia. For those with a genuine interest in learning more of this extraordinary American musical institution that is the Grateful Dead I can think of no better place than either the Dead to the World or the Grateful Dead Hour, each 26 years old now I am pretty sure. Lets freaking hear it for Bernie, on your feet Tullies!
