If Ian had been American we would have missed out on his British quirky magical, mystical, earthiness. Not saying that Americans don't have all the above but it would have been interpreteted in a different way. I agree, although it is in America where Tull has the most number of fans, I can not imagine Tull music emerging from a country without Celtic influences or celtic roots. In northern Spain there are many groups with Tull influences, especially in Galicia (the name of this region says it all) northern Spain was invaded by the Celts is why Celtic culture is deeply rooted in the northern of the peninsula, many of these musicians began in tribute bands and today have their own style, but is recognizable the Tull music influence, in groups like Mago de Oz, Ñu, Jose Carlos Molina, Fernando Ponce de León, Celtas Cortos, Judith Mateo and many others...the majority tullianos members and Ian's fans But of course Ian makes his Celtic influences into his own countries music because he thought tha Englishman shouldn't be making music like poor American black men. So many great bands from England and Europe made music based on their roots, Celtic and classical also based in their folk roots. In America, we had ....The Eagles, Frank Zappa, Stealy Dan, Allman Bros, many many others that were based on whatever limited heritage we had here. I think we like the grass is greener kind of thing and loved many things English, like The Who, and Ten Years After so when the Monty Python of rock came along we were totally ready for fun mixed with some bad assed rock and roll! I liked PFM from Itally and Focus from Holland and Kraftwork from Germany but I don't think I knew any Spanish bands.Maybe you could name some so I could check them out and rock with the Spaniards!! Rock on Robin Hood! Mark

Hi
I'm new to this forum, a music/Tull fan from Iceland. I am trying to find a way to record the show tonight, can´t promise anything but I will let you know if I'm able to get a copy. I was at this concert a year ago and it was a great performance, I was able to watch the show on a computer screen as it was being recorded and it looked absolutely superb. I would recommend that you follow the ruv.is site, hopefully the concert will be streamed there.

www.wdr.de/tv/rockpalast/sendungsbeitraege/2013/0826/From The Archives Broadcast Monday 26 August 2013, 00.10 - 01.40 clock 12:10 JETHRO TULL (Swing in from 27.11.1969) 12:40 BRIAN AUGER'S OBLIVION EXPRESS (Swing in from 11.06.1971) 01:10 WITH JULIE DRISCOLL BRIAN AUGER & THE TRINITY (Swing in from 02.05.1969) In no particular order Rockpalast presented under the title "From The Archives" musical treasures from the WDR archive. We start with the programs from the series "Swing In". The late sixties and early seventies, these contributions of contemporary rock music attended. Although sound and image of the series in its rawness not meet today's standards of quality, so convinced by the content of their proximity to the musicians - all legends today, then talented, very young men raring to go. "Swing In" is thus a journey to the origins of modern rock'n'roll. In our third special we show the British rock legends Jethro Tull, Brian Auger's Oblivion Express, and psychedelic Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger & The Trinity. Jethro Tull Jethro Tull are considered one of the most important hard rock bands and pioneers of progressive rock. In 1967, singer and multi-instrumentalist Ian Anderson with Mick Abrahams, Glenn Cornick and Clive Bunker left the band in Blackpool, UK. Their trademark: the flute and the extravagant stage performance Anderson. Early in her career, the guys still touring all over the country through small clubs in England and erspielten thanks to their exotic and exciting rock sound, a rapidly growing fan base. The big break finally came in 1968 with the Sunbury Jazz Festival. In the following years, Jethro Tull became known internationally and created despite constant lineup changes with songs like "Locomotive Breath" title for eternity. The influences in Ian Anderson's complex songwriting ranging from classical to jazz to experimental music. In the produced for the WDR program "Swing In" is filmmaker Wim van der Linden from the bizarre life of the band on their UK tour in '69 and shows, among other things, excerpts from a concert at the Royal Albert Hall.

Blink and you'll miss it www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01nzchsAlso on youtube at www.youtube.com/watch?v=8h19oF8GKuQThe Joy of the Single
Do you remember buying your first single? Where you bought it? What it was? The thrill of playing it for the first time? What it sounded like? How it maybe changed your life? Lots of us do. Lots of us still have that single somewhere in a dusty box in the attic, along with other treasured memorabilia of an adolescence lost in music and romance. The attic of our youth.
The Joy of the Single is a documentary packed with startling memories, vivid images and penetrating insights into the power of pop and rock's first and most abiding artefact - the seven inch, vinyl 45 rpm record; a small, perfectly formed object that seems to miraculously contain the hopes, fears, sounds and experiences of our different generations - all within the spiralling groove etched on its shiny black surface, labelled and gift-wrapped by an industry also in its thrall.
In the confident hands of a star-studded cast, the film spins a tale of obsession, addiction, dedication and desire. The viewer is invited on a journey of celebration from the 1950s rock n roll generation to the download kids of today, taking in classic singles from all manner of artists in each decade - from the smell of vinyl to the delights of the record label; from the importance of the record shop to the bittersweet brevity of the song itself; from stacking singles on a Dansette spindle to dropping the needle and thrilling to the intro.
Featuring contributions from Noddy Holder, Jack White, Richard Hawley, Suzi Quatro, Holly Johnson, Jimmy Webb, Pete Waterman, Norah Jones, Mike Batt, Graham Gouldman, Miranda Sawyer, Norman Cook, Trevor Horn, Neil Sedaka, Paul Morley, Rob Davies, Lavinia Greenlaw, Brian Wilson and Mike Love. (R)
Broadcast on BBC Four, 3:00AM Tue, 25 Feb 2014 Available until 3:59AM Tue, 4 Mar 2014Don't rush of for a cup of tea around the 28.40 mark

Not exactly a TV appearance but JT got a mention on 'Pointless' tonight, BBC1 17:20. They were a pointless answer for the question 'name any of the first 100 albums to reach no.1 in the UK charts'. This apparently covered 1956 to 1971 so 'Stand Up' just made it. Comment from the quizmaster was 'well done if you go that one'! Indeed, because it would show an exceptional knowledge of quality music....

Hi all. I was wanting to give everyone a heads up about a new Tull podcast some mates and I have launched, titled Three Thick Bricks. We plan a chronological album by album, track by track, review, with the episodes released monthly. We're not experts, just long time Tull appreciators, and wanted to get together to reminisce about our long lost youth, banter about our personal connection to Tull and have an excuse to revisit our favourite albums and explore albums that we haven't listened to. Our introductory episode has been released and the This Was episode should be out in the next week. I hope some of you can join us and we'd love to hear your feedback. You can find the podcast episodes at at our homepage
We also have a Facebook pageAttachments:

What a great podcast combining two of the things that make life sweet: Tull and friendship. Thank you for the effort and willingness to share...it is appreciated. Thank you. One of the main motivations for doing the podcast was not just to revisit Tull but an excuse to get back together after many years and revisit our lost youths through something that we shared a love of (not all of it, as the varied and sometimes strident opinions in the podcast show ). It is as much about friendship and our shared history as it is about Tull. Mouse Police.

One of the big ones. Aqualung is up at threethickbricks.com. A bit of disagreement among us over whether this is a great album (which of course, it is ) or not so great (crazy talk ). Hope you enjoy it and we'd love to hear your feedback and opinions on the album. Mouse Police.
