    IA is a gentleman and quite humble for all his accomplishments. I don't think people realize how prolific he has been over the past 50 years. He must be a perfectionist and a workaholic too because everything he puts out is top notch. Whether it's old Tull remasters, new Tull/IA, solo albums, etc. he always delivers for his fans. Tull's heyday may have been the 70s but they put out some solid albums in the 80s, 90s, and even 2000s. Looking forward to this one and wishing you good health Ian.

      Ian is Jethro Tull. He is the essence of their story. The reason why Tull is still a current force of new music.
      All because of Ian's unquestionable brilliance. A creative genius.

      I love Ian… I met him in 2009 in DC after a concert. Great guy, super generous. However I’ve heard that he’s not easy to work with. However I think this is because he has vision and drive… and if one cannot keep up with that I am sure it causes tension.
      Looking forward to the album!

    Inspiration comes and sometimes goes away forever for many composers, but the biggest achievement of this release is Ian's ability to get back his own path in music which is no other than Jethro Tull. Nobody has created something like this for decades and I feel that Røkflote will always be if not unknown, a most underrated great piece of music.

    I have been a Tull fan since 1971 and then of course Solo records of Ian and the other members. I remember Roots to Branches and Dot Com did not have much of an impact at the time. As all of us Tull Fans do, we will revisit all the albums over time and I love to rediscover how brilliant Ian has been over the years and each Album at one point or another becomes my current favorite.

    Sadly never saw Tull live until 11th July '72 though could swear there was an 'Aqualung' tour before TAAB? Anyway Australia was a long way from UK then, somewhat closer now I guess, so lucky indeed for their brisk yet wondrous antipodean tour. Will they tour off this? One can only hope.The tidbits certainly feel familiar, always different, but definitely Jethro Tull. 🤩

    Wise words. I'm trying to write a book in the same vein - and I've written lyrics and music too (written being a relative and loose term😉), I understand that Led Zeppelin took a similar approach. It's that self actualisation thing that Maslow et al leaned heavily upon. In spirit, inspiration, similar with Einstein, Nicolai Tesla et al taking from the Great hall of records, the stream of consciousness etc, living one's bliss.
    One thing is bugging me, the intro music? There's a motif that has so many familiar strains within it, but I can't quite put my finger on it/them🤔😉✌️💜🤞🤔 Yes it does feel like a Tull amalgam, but there's bits of Adam and the Ants' "Ant Invasion" and I forget who inspired them in that track, I know they also tipped their hat to, iirc, Rumble by Link Ray in their 'Killer in the Home" (that's all from memory btw, don't shot me if I have that all slightly wrong😉✌️💜😊). I also forgot what mode Ant Invasion is played in - sorry brain fog, haven't picked up a guitar in awhile either.
