If you’re a Tull fan, or just appreciate someone covering songs with love and care, check out Stewart Wood. He’s covering through pretty much all of the Tull/Ian Anderson back catalogue.
All the videos have a nice little introduction about the song, and what he likes about it. And sometimes he’ll add on a little extra at the end about chord sequences (for the music/guitar nerds among us).
He’s not the greatest singer in the world, but his guitar parts are spot on. I’ve spent many happy hours going through his stuff.
I share his view that Flying Dutchman is a great song, and his interpretation of it is a delight.
Paging @Twang …
He’s squinting at his crappy old monitor, trying to figure out what the OP is about….
Yeah, nothing is easy…
It’s a nice evening, perhaps he’s sitting on a park bench.
Only Jethro Tull cover you need…
I’d never knowingly heard Jethro Tull when I bought Iron Maiden’s The Trooper in 1983.
At the age of 13, you play both sides of the single as often as possible.
B Side is Cross Eyed Mary – went out soon after and splashed that weeks paper round money on second hand copies of Aqualung and Thick As a Brick (£2 each if I remember correctly)
Nice version
Very nice. I admire his dedication and nerdiness. Must give it a go. My folky duo does a mean Locomotive Breath and Mother Goose. Must work up Baker Street Muse.
