Twang discusses the imminent re-release of the "Too old to rock
'n' roll: too young to die!" album with Jethro Tull supremo Ian
Anderson.
Ian is as complete of answer as ever and at one point your
correspondent actually gets a word in edgewise, daring to disagree
with the great man about something.
In part 2, deadbeats and old greasers Twang, Rec Room, Steerpike
and Beany convene to share their views on the interview and an
album which many Tull fans consider to be something of a curate's
egg, whilst agreeing that a 1976 concept album on the transitory
and cyclical nature of fashion in a world of cynical media
exploitation was uncannily prescient.
While it is no Tull fan's favourite album, the panel agree there is
much to enjoy and rediscover on this curio by the band who changed
direction and mood with every release, always sounding like
themselves and never like anyone else
