Ian Anderson is a GOD!!!!

Songs From the Wood is my favorite Ian Anderson/Jethro Tull CD...

Every once in a while I whip it out and my kids think I am crazy, whirling around like a madwoman...

"Every once in a while I whip it out and my kids think I am crazy, whirling around like a madwoman"

I think I'll have to agree with them 😉
 
Jethro Tull is actually the last rock concert I saw. Meriweather Post Pavilion, Columbia, Maryland, September 1982. Suddenly, at 35, I feel old. 🙁
 
An all time favorite...

Aqualung my friend
don't start away uneasy
you poor old sod
you see it's only me

I must be getting old 🙁
 
. . .Looking for a sign that the Universal Mind has written you into the Passion Play. . .



Skating away on the thin ice of the new day . . .
 
Hmmm. Maybe I should have phrased that differently... 'Whip it out' must have given you all quite a visual... 😱

Oh Athanasius, I forgot about that song! That line sums it all up so well.


How about,

"He who made kittens put snakes in the grass"

Let's bungle in the jungle...

😀
 
Well, at least some people actually know what I'm talking about. I'm impressed! 😀

I only have 2 CD's

Rock Island
Root to Branches

I have a tape as well:

Living in the past

I need more. 🙂

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with those songs.... (excluding Bungle..)

amish
 
Isla:

He's a Lover of Life but a Player of Pawns; the King on His sunset lies waiting for dawn.



<< Bungle in the Jungle >>

rocks 🙂
 
So you ride your sails over the fields
and you make all your animal deals
and your wise men dont know how it feels
to be thick
as a brick
 
Hehe. I saw Jethro Tull a few times starting in 1971 and was never disappointed.

With profound apologies to the demigod Frank Zappa and his many masterpieces, if I were allowed to have only one LP, it would be Thick As A Brick, even over FZ's Fillmore East and Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon.

My other Tull favs are:

Aqualung, off course
A Passion Play
Minstrel In The Gallery
Living In The Past
Too Old To Rock N Roll, Too Young To Die
This Was
Songs From The Woods

Discography with lyrics

Aqualung midi

Hymn 43 (Jethro Tull)
 
so fly away Peter, and fly away Paul........

One White Duck





Proposition, deal. Flying button feel. Testicle testing.
Wallet ever-bulging. Dressed to the left, divulging
the wrinkles of his years.
Wedding-bell induced fears.
Shedding bell-end tears in the pocket of her resistance.
International assistance flowing generous and full
to his never-ready tool.
Pulls his eyes over her wool.
And he shudders as he comes.
And my rudder slowly turns me into the Marylebone
Road.

(try to guess this one)


by far, my favorite Tull release is Minstrel in the Gallery

second time I saw them in concert I had the pleasure of Ian singing a verse of Locomotive breath to me &quot;on his hands and knees&quot; about 18&quot; from my face......and my hell, he's an ugly dude.
Last concert I ever went to was when they performed with only 3 members, Ian, Martin and Barriemore(?), doing acoustical.
The funny part was that it was a much younger crowd that usual, and in very atypical form, some young girl jumped up on stage and rushed Ian. It took him by quite surprise, as they are not really the kind of group that attracts screamy teen girls.
