Cool.

I have everything he’s ever put out, even the weird stuff like an album basically devoted to his deceased cat, Rupi.

( still trying to learn to love The Secret Language Of Birds)

Divinities is a good one, though.

J-Tull Dot Com was just bizarre.

Homo Erraticus sucked. I don’t think I’d ever had that experience with anything else Ian has done with or without the various iterations of the band. He’s ten years older than me I think, and has basically lost his voice, so, if he wanders in somewhere nearby, I’ll go see him one more time, but may not enjoy it. Last time was the Jethro Tull lineup of the time (I think Martin was still in) and he had his usual vocal fatigue problems develop during the tour. He had them set up a little cafe table and chair, under a spot, somewhere in the back of the stage, to take long breaks, and the band did a lot of jamming, so, not bad at all.
