“A bit young to end up in a hospice.”
He was a hippie degenerate. Alcoholism and drug abuse.
Ian Anderson despised hippies, so that’s probably one reason he didn’t stay with them very long.
“It would be a crappy world if there was only one approved music style we could listen to.”
That is such an ironic comment given that that is exactly how it was in the hey day of bands like Jethro Dull.
Thanks.
That is a perfect example of what I mean by worst music ever made.
You’re welcome...I hope you had it turned up. :{)
But he was a hippie.
“Are you projecting your own self loathing onto a dead musician whom you never met?”
Maybe, but truth or accuracy is what matters.
Give up your idols.
And if you liked that one so much...try another. (granted, this is just a cover)

If you think there was only one music style then you’re a bigger idiot than you sound like. Heck Tull themselves went through more than one music style in that era. Really coming onto this thread just to insult a recently dead guy is a sign of poor character. Not to mention your demonstrably have no taste in music.
No he wasn’t. You know nothing of which you speak.

Sorry. You’re overreacting and exaggerating a bit. You had to look far and wide to find an FM station that played Jethro Tull.
You can always change the channel if you don’t like music. And find another thread if you don’t like the topic.
Yeah ok.
Long haired liberal prog rock musician. Not a hippie.
I grew up in all this liberalism when these guys were like gods. All the dope smoking and worship of rock stars.
It has had a very negative effect long term on society.
That’s really I’m saying.
The death of a fellow like this causes some reflection on the decades passed and how we are in the state we are in.
You obviously didn’t go to high school in the 70’s.
You don’t know he was a liberal, lots of people had long hair, prog rock wasn’t hippie music, and they were a blues band when he joined, and his further bands were blues bands also.
See you’re making stuff up, you don’t know anything about him or the music. You’re lying about a dead guy, and it’s rather pathetic. You are, quite simply, scum.
See post #25 for a song featuring his work. Heck, don’t bother, here it is again. (Bouree)

I did. You can have the last word.
This is important to you.
Kind of proves my point.
He was a Stand Up sorta guy...
