      The ones giving thumbs down are the people complaining about how it's not as good as the Roland Kirk version, which I'm sure Ian would agree with.

    Check out Roland Kirk's version. It will blow you away. He played multiple instruments at once. I don't remember what it's called and I'm not sure Ian does this or not, but Kirk breathes in through his nose while at the same time exhales through his mouth. Therefore he doesn't have to take a breath while playing. He was phenomenal.

    Ian was the source of a major disagreement between me and my father, who had (at the age of 12) won a city wide flute contest which offered lessons with Marcel Moye. I regard Ian as the only flutist to successfully integrate the instrument as a soloist in rock music. Roland Kirk was Ian’s inspiration and was totally unique.

But with age, sometimes (or bot with age), like so many people, when you do all that jumping and moving on stage during live concerts under the hot lights, his face turns a bit red ! But it's got nothing to do with drinking, I think !

    As good as this rendition is, I prefer Ian's playing style from the 60's/70's. It was a lot grittier and raspy sounding. I know it's because at the time he was self taught and playing it "wrong", but the style fitted blues & jazz so much better than his more recent, refined style.

    • @Eleventhearlofmars
      @Eleventhearlofmars 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes sometimes the less you know about your instrument the better it can be, Ian’s earlier more breathy rasping flute sound suited the songs better, some of Jethro Tulls earlier 70s concerts show this to definitely be the case.

    With all due respect to Jethro Tull, the progressive rock band, I think you're giving this performance way too much credit and I don't think you've heard much Roland Kirk. He in fact, pushed the boundaries just about as far as they can go. This performance sounds amateur at best. I've heard 8th grade jazz combos swing better and have more interesting vocabulary. They should stick to Aqua Lung and leave jazz to the professionals.

    Ian didn't abandon sax for flute. He traded his electric guitar for a flute just a few months before Tull's first album (68). This song is also featured in that album as a tribute to Kirk.
    Ian only played sax for a year or two in the mid 70's. He thought that as a flautist he also needed to play sax but he didn't like it very much.
