I'm Listening To....

Jethro Tull - Stand Up

40 years old next year and still a fine album - tracks like We Used To Know are far superior than anything the current sensitive singer/songwriters like James Blunt & Damien Rice can make, yet the album still rocks............

PS - Does anyone remember the original cover?

Although 1984 was around the same time as the classic 'Marguerita Time', which is widely accepted as the Quo's magnum opus. :lol:

Yep. Chas'n'Dave on coke.

I met Francis Rossi a few years back (at a garage in London). Told him I saw them on the 84 tour at The Apollo....

FR: "Did you enjoy the gig ?"

BF: "Aye - it was magic !"

FR: "Good, good.....I don't remember a f*cking thing about that tour" :ph34r:

(Which tallies with Danny Baker recalling seeing a comatose Francis Rossi being "foot-dragged" to the dressing room/portakabin less than 1 hour before they played Selhurst Park in July 84 !!!!)

You can never get far enough away from The Effing Anniversary Waltz.

Saw them at the SEC last year. Never played that pish live. Just all the old Quo classics. Magic. As good live now as when I first saw them around 1980. (Well almost as good). :)
