Great stuff. Best prog rock album given a new lease of life. Martin better than ever. 🤗

One of the best!

Love this tune, the lyrics paint a portrait a scenario, and a storyline. Nice to hear a master still at it.

Well done,Martin,great sound 👏👏👏

His tone is great. Much cleaner than in the live Tull videos I’ve seen. I saw the Tull in the mid-70s, before Anderson’s voice deteriorated. They were fantastic.

Great! Probably, the most underrated guitar player in history!

Martin brings new arrangements to Tull's classics and keeps them fresh. And... Much better attitude and performance than actual Tull crew. It is great to listen.. Soo light, playful and innovative. Closer to younger people than us. I love it.

Great Band.

Kudos to the vocalist. I'd hate to follow in Ian Anderson's footsteps, but he does justice to the material here.

Martin Barre is prog rock's all time MVP.

Martin is just as much Jethro as Ian. Nick is as much Floyd as Roger, David, Richard or even Syd and Steve Hackett as much as Phil, Pete, Mike and Tony. Nothing is missing that can't be made up. Excellent rendition. Thanks Martin for keeping Tull alive. Naysayers, you still have your HipHop.

NO FLUTE???

Seriously, what changed? These guys have been playing pretty drudgey for years, this is great -- 8:04 -- much better arranged and played. Nice that they highlight Martin's guitar more, and Martin is more consistent in his playing. Love Martin's playing, except the overuse of these parallel thirds ... it's too much.

Why is Martin begging the audience to come back? That sounds a bit desperate.

From what I read Martin Barre was a self starter guitar player right from the beginning given the gift. However playing art rock likely cant really relax or you miss the change so detail oriented, Blues on the other hand if your good enough player? drink 3 pint's and get away with it, maybe Evan enhance the singing guitar solos

I could really do without the singer trying to "do" Ian Anderson with his expressions and mannerisms.

Missing a flute and a distinctive lead singer, like Ian Anderson. Make up with Ian, Martin, and join him on tour as the real Jethro Tull.

Not sure if you know this John but Martin did not leave Tull by choice. It's been about 70 per cent Tull in the last many years he has had this band going. But he has a different take on the material, tending to the more hard rock side, though I think the acoustic section of the show with the 2 women is the best part. Just not a fan of the singer, though I can see as a rock singer he's probably quite good if one likes something like,, I dunno, ACDC maybe. If one likes Tull there is likely alot of merit in Martin's show.
