August 10th of this year, Ian Anderson will become 77 years old. What is remarkable is that he is still kicking ass on stage, bringing his rock and roll music to his fans all over the world. His influence and popularity around the world cannot be questioned. Why he isn't in the rock and roll hall of fame is despicable and an insult to the Hall and needs to be corrected immediately.
mmmm just like is the case with a band like Yes this is not really Jethro Tull but a kind of 'polished up' tributeband even if/when you bring in a guitarist who looks a bit like a young Martin Barre. I stopped going to Tull live shows quite some years ago already mostly because i did not wanted to see Ian struggeling with his voice and feel a bit embarrassed while watching/hearing it...
I thought I would love this, as I am a Tull fan, but Ian's half-step behind the music while singing is just annoying. I've heard him do much better live.
