Marc Almond feat. Ian Anderson - Lord of Misrule www.outinperth.com/marc-almond-teams-up-with-ian-anderson-for-new-single/Marc Almond teams up with Ian Anderson for new single15 Dec 2019 | Filed under Culture,Music,News | Posted by admin Marc Almond has released the first single from his forthcoming album. Lord of Misrule sees him teaming up with flautist Ian Anderson from Jethro Tull. In an interview with San Francisco based website 48 Hills Almond said he’d been working on the new album with producer Chris Braide and it would be released in February of 2020. “It is really different and I hope people will like it as much as we do.” Almond said. Almond also commented on his recent Twitter rant which saw him take aim at people who identify as labels other than lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or heterosexual. Almond said it was absurd that people took his comments as being transphobic. “I was accused of being transphobic, which is absurd. Me, of all people!” the singer said. Chaos and a Dancing Star will be Almond’s 26th solo work, he also made five albums as the vocalist of Soft Cell and two as Marc and the Mambas.
Of interest, there are 3 images if IA recording his piece for the video in 2016 here: jethrotull.proboards.com/post/66828

Marc Almond feat. Ian Anderson - Lord of Misrule Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull plays flute on the song Lord of Misrule. Almond says it was a song written with one of musical heroes in mind. “I’ve been a fan of Ian’s and Jethro Tull’s since I was a teenager – in fact, one of the first records I bought was the single Witches Promise and the album Benefit by Jethro Tull after a pretty wild performance on Top of the Pops at the time. Folk-infused blues rock. I’m also a fan of the prog bands that mixed a theatricality with rock such as Tull, early Genesis, Van Der Graaf Generator and E.L.P. Ian heard I was a fan and I was approached to see if I would take part in Ian’s Christmas Cathedral shows. I’ve guested at a few and took part in a performance of Ian’s Tull opus Thick as a Brick at the Royal Albert Hall. It was a surreal experience to sing Witches Promise with Ian on stage recently after I’d bought the single at 13. A circle complete. Chris Braide and I wrote Lord of Misrule with Ian in mind and he plays fantastic flute on the track. When I was 13, at Aireborough Grammar [in Guiseley], me and my best friend Frank Catteraul were huge Tull fans and had the longest hair in class in tribute. Sadly Frank is no longer with us, but he would have been amazed and (I’m sure) delighted that I ended up working with Ian.” Link

Marc Almond: Chaos And A Dancing Star Album ReviewBy Geoff Ford -31 January, 2020 LinkJethro Tull legend Ian Anderson guests on the upbeat Lord Of Misrule adding a playful flute as Almond’s sings of a dramatic collision of apocalypse and seasonal festivities. “It’s probably fair to say that I wrote Lord of Misrule with Ian in mind,” Almond notes, “as I’ve always thought there was a touch of pagan mischief about him. It’s a kind of alternative Christmas song.”

Who honestly knew that back in the day when Soft Cell were the "in thing" that one day Marc Almond would own up and confess his liking for Jethro Tull and prog rock in general ?
Lord Of Misrule – featuring flute playing from Jethro Tull’s Ian Anderson – is a gorgeously chaotic anti-Christmas number, the fluting summoning folksy dancing, the text suggesting the dark wishes of Yuletide.Link Those of us who were teenagers when Marc Almond appeared on Top of the Pops, eyes heavily kohled and wrists creaking under the weight of studded leather cuffs, could never have envisaged a collaboration between this new emperor of Soho-inspired synth pop and the crazy-haired creature from our hippy sibling’s Jethro Tull albums. Is that a flute? Why is he standing on one leg?
However, with his tendency to keep us guessing, Marc Almond invited Ian Anderson to collaborate on the single Lords of Misrule, released late last year.
“I was and still am a huge Jethro Tull fan!” Marc says. “I’m pleased to still work with interesting, great producers and musicians – and that includes Ian Anderson. Maybe it’s because I’m older and I’ve been around so long that I don’t feel such a pressure to have hits.”
Lords of Misrule was taken from Chaos and a Dancing Star, Marc’s new album, released yesterday. The title is inspired by a quote from Nietzsche’s Thus Spoke Zarathustra. “One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.”Link
