Which Fillmore date is planned? I don't know the date exactly, Tull played various shows at the Fillmore in 69. I am not saying it WILL be included in the Benefit box set, I am only whishing.

The band has already completed a new album titled "The Zealot Gene", which can be expected in early 2022. Ian Anderson had this to say about the new signing: "After 54 years in the world of music recording, it is with great pleasure that I now sign JETHRO TULL to a record company which reminds me, in many ways, of the old Chrysalis label — both as an independent and in its later years in partnership with EMI. Here are real music guys with a passion for the best and most creative in rock music. We look forward to a long and fruitful relationship and more releases to come." InsideOut Music label manager Thomas Waber states: "Adding JETHRO TULL to the roster is an incredible honor for us. The band are true innovators of the genre and we are looking forward to working with them on their new album. We are sure their countless fans will be as excited about it as we are." Anderson formed a blues and jazz fusion band in the mid-60s and the name changed frequently until an agent, with an interest in history, booked them as JETHRO TULL, and the name stuck. Ian took up the flute, as he felt he would never match Eric Clapton as a guitarist as and, with a coat purchased to keep out the cold in a draughty bedsit, the image of the tousled, flute-wielding minstrel was born. TULL's debut album, "This Was", received favourable reviews and sold well upon its release in 1968. The commercial breakthough came the following year when "Living In The Past", with its unusual 5/4 time signature, reached number 11 in the singles chart and an appearance on "Top Of The Pops", performing the No. 4 hit "The Witch's Promise" brought TULL to a much wider audience. Musically, a historical theme was developing which Anderson exploited as the creative force behind a series of critically acclaimed albums including "Stand Up", "Benefit", "Aqualung", "Thick As A Brick" and "Passion Play". JETHRO TULL became one of the most distinctive and original bands to fall under the "progressive rock" umbrella and that still sets them apart as one of the best-loved bands of the genre. Over 50 years on, Ian Anderson and JETHRO TULL continue perform some 70 to 100 shows each year around the world. Anderson's energy and enthusiasm for his music still makes JETHRO TULL concerts an experience to savor. The band currently consists of: Ian Anderson - Flute, acoustic guitar, harmonica, vocals Joe Parrish-James - Guitar Florian Opahle - Guitar (album only) Scott Hammond - Drums. John O'Hara - Piano, keyboards and accordion David Goodier - Bass

consequence.net/2021/07/jethro-tull-new-album-the-zealot-gene/Jethro Tull Announce The Zealot Gene, First Proper Studio Album in More Than 20 YearsIt appears that singer Ian Anderson's health issues haven't stopped him from recording new music Jon Hadusek July 13, 2021 | 6:37pm ET Jethro Tull have announced a new album, The Zealot Gene, expected in early 2022. It will mark the prog legends’ first release as part of a new record deal with InsideOutMusic/Sony Music. The news comes as an unexpected surprise and major boon for longtime fans. Last year, the band’s charismatic vocalist and flautist Ian Anderson gave fans a scare when he said he was “suffering from an incurable lung disease” and that his “days are numbered.” He later clarified that he was battling COPD and that it was manageable for the time being, while also explaining that he meant that his “days as a singer were numbered.” Whatever the case, it appears Anderson was fit enough to deliver at least one more Tull album. The Zealot Gene has already been completed, according to a press release, but no further details are known. “After 54 years in the world of music recording, it is with great pleasure that I now sign Jethro Tull to a record company which reminds me, in many ways, of the old Chrysalis label — both as an independent and in its later years in partnership with EMI,” Anderson commented on the new signing. “Here are real music guys with a passion for the best and most creative in rock music. We look forward to a long and fruitful relationship and more releases to come.” Jethro Tull are among the most prolific and longstanding rock acts of all-time. With seminal classics such as Aqualung to its name, there’s no disputing the Grammy-winning band’s place in the annals of rock lore. The new album will be Jethro Tull’s first proper studio LP since 1999’s J Tull Dot Com (not counting 2003’s The Jethro Tull Christmas Album). “Adding Jethro Tull to the roster is an incredible honor for us,” InsideOutMusic label manager Thomas Waber said in the press announcement. “The band are true innovators of the genre and we are looking forward to working with them on their new album. We are sure their countless fans will be as excited about it as we are!” The current Jethro Tull lineup consists of Anderson, guitarist Joe Parrish-James, drummer Scott Hammond, pianist John O’Hara, and bassist David Goodier. Guitarist Florian Opahle also contributed the album, but is not in the core lineup. Stay tuned to Heavy Consequence for details on Jethro Tull’s upcoming album The Zealot Gene.

Interesting that it lists harmonica as one of the instruments Ian plays on the album. When was the last time Ian featured a harmonica on a studio album...Too Old?

Doesn't Ian still play harmonica on New Day Yesterday and Someday the Sun Won't Shine For You now and then ?
I actually have faith that we will see and hear a new Tull album in 2022. The signs, the multiple signs, seem right.

The signs, the multiple signs, seem right. C’mon guys…my question was “ When was the last time Ian played harmonica on a STUDIO ALBUM.” Everybody knows he plays it live now and then. I find it interesting that he’s playing it on the new album. A blues track or two?

I see the "Jethro Tull" name has now been resurrected, no doubt for financial reasons. I do hope its not another like the last two "solo" albums where IA forced himself to sit down and write on particular pre arranged days with a theme in mind already. I don't play those albums much, they sound like what they are, contrived to fit a theme and suffer a great deal ,especially lyrically because of it. I'm half expecting another album containing another thinly veiled old guy lecture on the state of the world, at least one song of lists, and the wheezy accordion playing lead lines.( the possibility of harmonica doesn't thrill me either!). And isn't it now quite old already, and been sitting around since before lockdown? . Still its in our blood, I shall pre order like the rest of you

Last studio album I can remember with harmonica was "Too Old" on Taxi grab. Just off the top of my head though (maybe used on Catfish Rising?). Strangely Ian Anderson mentions in concert that he is not a great harmonica player (or words to that effect) and Martin Barre makes a similar comment about his own mandolin playing. Both sound excellent to me. I would prefer that the next album cuts back on the flute though. Some of my favourite JT songs do not have flute on them..

www.classicrockforums.com/threads/jethro-tull-official-thread.3314/page-149#post-1035872King Crimson’s Jakko Jaksyzk talks music, history, firsts and lastsJuly 21, 2021 You’ve got a great reputation now as a remix engineer, working on the Crimson archives, some of the Jethro Tull stuff, and famously the classic Emerson, Lake & Palmer albums Trilogy and Brain Salad Surgery. What’s the thrill, for you, of plumbing through those tapes? Well, those are albums that I grew up listening to, and I bought when they came out. So they’re familiar to me because they were kind of part of the cultural landscape I grew up in. To then be able to have access to the actual multi-tracks is an enormous thrill and privilege. And really exciting, to hear this stuff in that stage. Emerson, Lake & Palmer in particular was a nightmare job, I have to say, because often on albums from that era, two-inch tape for most bands was a budgetary concern. Two-inch tape was rather expensive. You were quite careful with it. So most of the albums we get there’s maybe three, possibly four reels for an album. Sometimes less. But (laughing) with Emerson, Lake & Palmer, they sent me a hard drive that they’d digitally transferred all the multi-tracks to. And there were forty-two multi-tracks! That was a combination of Trilogy and Brain Salad Surgery. Forty-two, can you imagine? That’s like 15, 20 minutes per tape. The main problem was, there were no track sheets. And all I had were jpegs of the boxes. Quite often, the boxes were either not the original boxes, or (the tapes) were put in the wrong boxes. So it took me weeks to get to a point where I could even start mixing it. One of the other issues was that on some of the longer pieces, what they’ve done is said “Oh, why don’t we use the first three minutes from Take 4 of this tune, and edit to the last four minutes of Take 17 of that tune.” But because I’m mixing in Surround, I’ve got to find that in multi-track form. I have to go looking through all of this stuff to find out which bit’s which. It just took forever. Just before we came out here, I just mixed the new Jethro Tull album. Ian and I get on very well.I’m an engineer because I make my own records, rather than I started out being an engineer. And whilst I may have the technical capacity to do this, I certainly don’t have the mental capacity to sit in a studio for hours, working on music I don’t like very much! (laughing) Which I guess has got to be one of the criteria for a good engineer. Unless you can connect with the music on some level, it’s very difficult to spend that kind of long, detailed time working on something like that. So I’ve kind of stopped doing it.

Mixed sounds nice and close to finished to me. I hope an actual release date is announced soon so I can go full Tull nerd and count days.

Entirely supposition, of course, but given Jakko's previous form with Homo Erraticus and several Tull reissues, I'd say his involvement in the project strongly suggests a 5.1 mix is in the offing as well.

www.rollingstone.de/jethro-tull-album-2022-2332727/After 18 years: New Jethro Tull album will be released in 2022by Simon Laumayer 07/15/2021 Ian Anderson's prog rock band is back.Jethro Tull in the old composition. Now only front man Ian Anderson (second from right) is part of the band A little over 18 years ago, Jethro Tull released their last studio album, "The Jethro Tull Christmas Album". Now the band around Ian “Storch” Anderson has signed a new label contract. The plans for her album “The Zealot Gene” , which was announced in March, are also taking shape. The record is expected to appear in early 2022. EDITOR'S RECOMMENDATION Black Sabbath: Tony Iommi never wanted to see Jethro Tull New album, new label The songs for the album should already be finished. More details and an exact release date are not yet available. Tull frontman Ian Anderson looks forward to the collaboration: "After 54 years in the world of the music industry, it is a great pleasure for me to have Jethro Tull sign with a record company that reminds me of the old Chrysalis label in many ways" the 73-year-old is quoted in a Facebook post by the band. “Here are real musicians with a passion for the best and most creative in rock. I'm looking forward to a long and fruitful collaboration and many more releases ” . EDITOR'S RECOMMENDATION Most underrated albums of all time: Jethro Tull - "This Was" Jethro Tull has released a total of 23 studio albums since it was founded in 1967. Above all, Anderson's characteristic flute playing has shaped the band's sound significantly over the years. In 1989 the band won their first Grammy with their album "Crest of a Knave", and that in the category "Best Hard Rock or Heavy Metal Performance".

Meant to say — and I’m sure many of you know this already — but Ian mentioned a February release date for The Zealot Gene onstage at Brighton Dome, 22nd September. I daresay he’s mentioned it on other dates along the tour as well. Thought I’d just add this detail to the thread. 😉
