Thank you!! 😁

Forget the mysteries of the universe. I would love to know what Ian Anderson and Martin Barre were laughing about in the back haha

Fabulous!!
And I love that "You Can All Join In" photo. I've been keeping an eye out for a copy. (Not easily found in the US and I'm too cheap to pay shipping lol)

Wow, who would have thought a Jethro Tull single would be playing in 2025? haha

I haven't heard anything from the new album yet. I enjoyed the last two albums but rarely listen to them. I wish he would have put out an instrumental Tull album because many of the melodies are phenomenal!

That seems to be where the "marmite" comes in, haha.
I love Geddy's voice but I know a lot don't. We like what we like, nothing wrong with that at all.

I knew Rush was big but I'm in the US and I don't believe they had nearly the same level of success in the UK.

Ha! I never thought of it that way! Maybe?

Maybe nowhere near as much as Rush but I think Tull could be described that way. :)

One of Tull's most beautiful songs.

Awesome, Chris - thanks! :)

Wonderful!
Merry Christmas to you, Mrs R, and the rest of your family. 🙂

Such rare footage from that tour!

This is such a fabulous song!!

😂 Hilarious!
December 17, 2024 at 3:42 PM
Ha! How is it?
I'll admit, I'm having trouble wrapping my brain around the concept, like something just doesn't feel right - like it's AI-generated 😂

But I guess if Billy Idol can release a Christmas album (and Jethro Tull, haha), then Rob Halford can too.
December 17, 2024 at 2:15 PM
Oh that's not a problem at all. To be fair, the Tull Christmas album isn't really "Christmassy" for about 1/2-2/3 of it. I much prefer seasonal to the overly sappy anyway. :)
December 17, 2024 at 2:14 PM
Oh, and I was clearly unaware of Martin's, so I need to scare up a copy of that now.
December 17, 2024 at 1:16 PM
And I didn't realize Rob Halford had a Christmas album! 😁
December 17, 2024 at 1:16 PM
Oh no! :(
Didn't you order from Burning Shed and you live in NY? What is it doing in LA? (Sorry if I am slow and missing something. I also get stuck on tiny details lol.)

I have that Alvin and the Chipmunks album! haha
Haven't heard it in decades but loved it so much when I was a kid.
December 17, 2024 at 1:16 PM
I meant to ask, did you get your Tull Christmas box yet?
December 17, 2024 at 2:23 AM
Thank you!
She gave me a bunch 20 years ago and I thought that was all of them. I must have found about 30 more in the attic that I never saw before in my life.
December 17, 2024 at 1:29 AM
Oh I loooooove the Chateau tapes!
I think hearing them is the reason it took me 20 years to settle into and accept APP 😁

But we all like different stuff, nothing wrong with that at all. :)
