Hey all, another recent D1me appearance that I thought worth sharing, this time it's from the very talented and well-known taper Mike Millard and it's really good.

Thanks! A nice adjunct to the live set on the Songs from the Wood deluxe edition, which was from November/December of 1977.
In other news, the impending release of deluxe book editions of Benefit, "A", and the Broadsword and the Beast over the next year or two have been "confirmed" if you are willing to dig through some of the Tull threads on the Hoffman forums. I think only Benefit is on the cards for a 2020 release though (but nothing is really official yet).

Wilson remix or the other guy?
― and i can almost smell your PG Tips (Jon not Jon), Sunday, 4 October 2020 23:56 (three years ago) link
Wilson, supposedly (the Benefit is definitely him since it's been released in non-book format before)
― avellano medio inglés (f. hazel), Sunday, 4 October 2020 23:59 (three years ago) link
Super amped for the shows that will presumably come with A and Broadsword. That band was spectacular.
― and i can almost smell your PG Tips (Jon not Jon), Monday, 5 October 2020 00:38 (three years ago) link
(I realize there were changes between those two tours)
It seems the Broadsword era has a wealth of bonus tracks, but I've been spending a lot of time with 'A' this year so I'm kinda jazzed to see what that one will turn up (and as you note, the early 80s lineup was a fantastic one!)

One more, not as sweet as the '77 one but pretty solid nonetheless -

Interesting to compare this set to Watchers on the Storm from March 1980... only seven months later they've erased every song from Stormwatch from their set!

After six months of no haircut nor shaving, I think this might be the year to be 1970s Ian Anderson for Halloween.

I was hoping they'd loop back around for Benefit, Broadsword excepted, I think I'm off the bus after this one.

Notes:Acquired this from one of the Tull road crew several years ago & then promptly forgot I had it. Does not seem to havesurfaced anywhere, so this should help fill in the missing gaps at The Ministry of Information. The very firsttrack on the tape is the instrumental Quartet, played over the PA in the theatre, and which can be found on theNightcap album (highly recommended). The first instrumental is also incomplete - otherwise the this is the concertin its entirety.

here's an oldie that we've utterly loathed for 16 long years, but now it's resurrected, in a slightly more trickier form that's a little more fun to play -- this one is CALLED . . . living . . . in the PAST

Was talking upthread about Tull-related band Carmen, the debut album Fandangos In Space is seriously fucking amazing. Don't let it slip past you. The way they incorporated dancing into the music is so cool.
I'm placing them alongside Comus and Jacula as a great 70s band that never got very big at all. They were very well liked by some of the biggest bands of the time and toured with or were slotted to tour with them and everything could have went great if not for a series of shit events that destroyed them.
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Wednesday, 10 March 2021 20:11 (three years ago) link
Still, there's 4 albums and I think Visconti produced them all?
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Wednesday, 10 March 2021 20:12 (three years ago) link
Just got the second Carmen double pack, you can get all 4 albums in 2 double packs, first one is slightly scarcer. Trying to think why prog fans haven't embraced them more because there is enough of that in them.

50th Anniversary special about Aqualung... Ian breaks down each song and then it plays in full, very nice.

I don't know Carmen at all, but the wiki features some nutty stuff:
David Clark Allen continued to pursue a music career after Carmen disbanded. He played guitar on Michelle Phillip's solo album produced by Jack Nitzsche and was managed by Herb Cohen during the late 70s. He wrote two songs (Shame and Stay) for Agnetha's solo album, Wrap Your Arms Around Me - produced by Mike Chapman and a single release by Swedish band Katz - Heart Beats Stronger. David was diagnosed with thyroid/throat cancer in the early 80s. After a successful operation and radioactive therapy, he changed his name to Housk Randall - and became a sexual anthropologist/photographer. As Housk he had 5 books published in 4 languages: Revelations, Rituals of Love, The Customised Body, Piercing, Radical Desire and Bizarre Rubber - a photographic fantasy catalogue for fetish designers DeMask. In 1996 he married, changed his name to David Randall-Goddard and established a successful family photographic studio Family Portraits.

As probably mentioned upthread, I've never spent much time with Tull beyond whatever's come on the radio, but yesterday I heard "Hymn 43" for the first time in decades and it kicked ass.
― Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 20 March 2021 13:30 (three years ago) link
David Clark Allen was a really stylish looking guy. He often posts about new flamenco fusion bands on his blog.
I feel averse to posting whole albums but their so obscure at this point I don't think it could hurt too much.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nIP_WlCdtM
Quite pleased to find this
"It's amazing," Opeth frontman Mikael Akerfeldt told Metal Hammer in 2012. "It's a crazy flamenco prog-rock folk record! They had tap dancing on the record and castanets too! Everyone I've played it to has been blown away by it."
― Robert Adam Gilmour, Saturday, 20 March 2021 18:54 (three years ago) link
For some reason the most popular version of the album on youtube cuts off half of the first song, so I chosen another one for the link above.

I will buy this mainly for shelf consistency, since the previous deluxe edition isn't book-sized.
― Jaime Pressly and America (f. hazel), Wednesday, 29 September 2021 15:04 (two years ago) link
Me too, although good quality live recordings for that era are always interesting.
― Maresn3st, Wednesday, 29 September 2021 15:32 (two years ago) link
actually wow, they are including two live sets from 1970, including one on video! that's going above and beyond. especially since these cost around $40-50 and not $100+.
― Jaime Pressly and America (f. hazel), Wednesday, 29 September 2021 15:34 (two years ago) link
This and Stand Up are my two favourite Tull records, or at least the ones I return to all the time, then having Singing All Day, 17 and Teacher at the back end, so great!
― Maresn3st, Wednesday, 29 September 2021 21:41 (two years ago) link
I’ll be getting this tho would love to find a good indie retailer in the States instead of paying £17 shipping 😳. Still hoping they may do a run of earlier ones at some point. War Child, Minstrel, and Passion in particular.

I think I have two copies because my wife was tangentially involved in the reissue process so every time one came out, I would ask her to bring home a copy for me and one for my mate and I think I must not have given him this one for some reason? So, I'm going to message him first.
― Maresn3st, Saturday, 9 October 2021 08:26 (two years ago) link

Not bad, but that riff is pretty monotonous. I get the feeling these older progressive musicians have made their recent music simpler not in the hope of getting played on the radio, but because even their casual fans won't listen twice if there isn't an obvious hook in a new song.I'm wondering now who has done worse harm to the vocal cords, Ian Anderson or Roger Waters.
