Ziet er heel goed uit !! Ik ben zelf vanaf 1969 al geinteresseerd in Jethro Tull. De LP 'Living in the past' heb ik voor de derde keer moeten kopen omdat ie gewoonweg VERSLETEN was !! Ben in het bezit van een videoband over Jethro Tull en de nodige cd's !! Groeten van, Jan Breukelman Emmen |

Beste Jan, Wat een goed idee, deze site! Ik weet niet of ik zo snel zou durven je suggesties aan de hand te doen, maar schroom niet om mij eventueel te berichten, als ik iets voor jou kan betekenen! groet, alex van den bergh |

| Hi,Iam thrilled to enter 1 of my favorite band's website and I couldn't have been happier than to be here.I simply love almost all works of TULL,Iam really mad about IAN ANDERSON'S style of writing.I feel he is the best lyricist of all the contemprory rock bands,its INDUBITABLE.Iam longing to see TULL's action in INDIA. My respect for his command over the ENGLISH language is IMMENSE. My favorite numbers are:- AQUALUNG,BUDAPEST,WEATHERCOCK,HEAVY HORSES, THICK AS A BRICK,HARRY'S BAR,TWO FINGERS AND MANY MORE. I thank you for having given me this wonderfull opurtunity to describe my favorite band. Keep up this good work.ALL THE BEST. With Love ARAVIND. | ||

Dear Friends, I want to thank all of you visitors for stopping by and signing this guestbook. Your comments really are encouraging. Without the help of many of you it would not be possible to collect all this information on the lyrics of Ian Anderson. Kind regards, oh, and stay tuned, for there is a lot of new information added soon. Take care, Jan |

I am 18 years old and I'm about to graduate from high school in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. My aunt and my dad listened to Jethro Tull when they were in school and they still do, so I was brought up on it. My boyfriends is practically obsessed with the band and with Ian Anderson, since his dad is, too. He listens to it a lot more than I do, but we both really enjoy and appreciate the music. I'm a jazz saxophone player (I'm actually going to double major in jazz performance and literature and minor in Latin and philosophy) and the flute parts in Tull's music inspired me to pick up the flute, so I now play jazz flute as well as saxophone and clarinet. This is really a great page. I enjoy it a lot and I visit it often. Thanks. Ginny Grant |

Beautiful site!!! For years I've been singing,"a hin-a-humma hin-a-humma way out west. All that fits in the pockets of their Sunday best..." in Part of the Machine. Now I can finally rest! I've been a Tull fan since 1973,and have had the absolute blessing of meeting Ian in front of the Edinburgh Playhouse where they were playing that night. I was vacationing there and staying a block from the theater. I saw some people running and I asked,"What's going on?' When a girl said,"It's Ian Anderson," I flipped. I ran like the wind, and there he was, in all his glory. I said,"You know, I came 3000 miles to see you." He lifted one eyebrow and said dryly,"Oh, is that all?"Everyone laughed. I'll never forget it. Keep up the good work. |

I'm a big fan of your page. Jethro Tull has always been a great love of mine and I'm glad to see someone else shares my tastes. Currently life finds me in San Francisco California, USA, not exactly Tull friendly territory. It is nice to visit and walk amongst the green for awhile. Please feel free to e-mail. Keep it up!!

Jan, Awesome work!! Being relatively new to the net I never realized there was anything like this on the greatest band alive. I've always wanted to speak with Ian and ask "What did you mean by that?" I guess this is quite close to that. I see you've been a fan as long as myself(since the late 60's). I'm from Pennsylvania, first saw Tull in Cleveland,Ohio (Thick as a Brick Tour) in the early 70's. Last time was back in Cleveland (Catfish Rising Tour)in the early 90's which my son bought us tickets for my 42nd birthday. After the concert he said"I knew they were good by growing up hearing your records,but never realized how good until seeing them live!" Another generation sold!!! Have also traveled to Pittsburgh,PA and Buffalo,NY to see the Minstrel but it's been too long! Please send any info when available on any upcoming USA tours. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!! |

I am so impressed with this JT site. The very first song I EVER looked for on the Web, was JT's Living in the Past, and then Fatman. I expected to find 0 hits on Tull, and instead find your well crafted, complete treasure chest of information. I thought I was one of only a few who "dug" JT, and have often wondered who he was, and wanted to know more about his music. You have provided this for me. Thanks. Could you add links to MP3 songs, for each set of lyrics. I'd love to hear some of the (previously unknown to me) religious type songs, now that I've read the words. I'm not joking, I really appreciate this site, and your work on it. "Art" |

Wat een ongelooflijke website, zeg. Ik was op zoek naar de lyrics van "Requiem" omdat ik dat altijd op de gitaar speel, maar niet precies verstond wat Anderson zei. Ik ben uren blijven surfen op deze site. Fantastisch! |

This site is delightful, i really appreciate the work you've put into it. I've been a Tull fan for a long time, as well, and it's nice to finally see ALL the words for old favorites that have eluded me. Being a pagan, it's especially delightful to view all of "Songs from the Wood". Keep up the good work! |

I just stopped by this page and have found it to quite interesting. Having been a tull fan since the early days, I too am mystified by andersons lyric's. Sometimes I feel he was only talking to me as i listened and tried to make sense of where he was coming from. But any way i believe I will stop by this site again. thanks |

Hey... ...I've been a regular Tull listener only a month. I bought the re- mastered 'Thick as a brick' album - it's mind boggling. (It contains also a live version and an interview). Your homepage was surely the best way to introduce me to Jethro Tull. Keep it up - and thankx - Antonio (I'm already looking forward to go to buy 'Aqualung' and 'Minstrel in the Gallery' tomorrow - after your great explanation). |

This is the first time I have visited your site. Very, very good. I have been a fan since I first heard "Bungle in the Jungle" (believe it or not!). I have been fortunate enough to attend 13 concerts including the convention in Burlington, Vermont. I love all things TULL and have found that all the fabulous sites on the net was like opening a door to all the fans around the world who also appreciate this band for their enormous talent. They will NEVER be surpassed. |

Hello fellow Tullian (is that what we call ourselves?), My name is James Patrick Albanese and I live in Essex Junction, Vermont,USA. I love all things Tull and appreciate the effort you must have spent in setting up this site. The 1997 American Jethro Tull Convention was right here in Essex Junction. That was a great day for all who attended both the convention and concert afterwards. I will start browsing through your annotations and see what someone else's thoughts are on Ian's lyrics. Until next time--JP Albanese |

Ha die Jan, Ik was de name van je page vergeten, maar via de TullRing is het een fluitje van een cent. Je bent nu inderdaad internationaal bekend!!! Grappig dat er zo veel sites m.b.t. Tull zijn in de wereld en dat er zo veel verwijzingen naar jouw site zijn. Daar kun je trots op zijn. Alleen the Jetro Tull Archive geeft nog geen vermelding. Moet je wat aan doen (of proberen), want die komt bij Alta Vista steevast bovenaan terecht. Loopt het een beetje met aanvullingen van elders in de wereld? En waar komen die zo al vandaan? Zo merk je in ieder geval dat het net de wereld echt kleiner maakt. Ik heb nu je e-mail adres weer, dus ik mail je binnenkort. Oh ja, ik ben ook trots op je. Mag wel hè? Pierre |

Thank you for putting together such a wonderful page, I just 'surfed' by for a quick visit, but you can be assured that I will return, next time with my Tull albums playing whilst reading the annotations, so that I will further my understanding Ians words, I have always found his songs to be very sexual in content, but with out fully understanding why, you page will certainly help. Thank you once again. Keep up the very good work. Susan |

Very interesting. I will return to get more informations and find out more about Ian Anderson and his band. I haven´t paid attention to Jethro Tull lyrics. The song was the first attraction but now I became curious and I want to know more about Jethro Tull. I´m Brasilian and as you see I don´t have a good English but I think that´s very important not just listen to the music but try to understand what it means. |

Just found your post to the Saint Cleve Cronicle. I intend to spend more time in the future browsing your site. From what I've seen so far, I like it. You have obviously spent a lot of time with it. My site is in it's infancy. I intend to add reference to Tull someday. I can't imagine trying to "compete" with the work you have done. May well refer to your site. Will check in again later. Keep up the good work. |

Hi Jan, Thank you for this tremendous gift, for a very long time I thought I was unique in the profound reverence I have for this band. I have always found this music playful and inspiring, now matter how down I got I could always raise me spirits by listening to Jethro Tull. Musically and lyrically this music is uplifting and so often cuts to the very bone of what life as a human is all about. If I were every stranded on a desert island and could have only one piece of music to ever hear again, it would have to be Thick as a Brick. I could never tire of the fascination of this piece of music and could not imagine knowing I'd never hear it again! |

Hi! I'm writing to you from El Salvador in Central America. I've been a fan of JETHRO TULL practically since I was born, listening this music thanks to my older brothers (i'm 30 old,and the older one was born in 1953). This site is excelent (I can't find a better word to describe it). Excuse my english. LARGA VIDA AL MAESTRO IAN ANDERSON. |

Hi Jan, just to say as a relatively new net user but long time Tull lover (I first was fortune enough to see them in Salisbury early 69)that I do appreciate your site. Having been somewhat out of touch for many years its good to know that the band are still going strong with what seems a substantial following. Anyway, regards Dave |

Great web site! I read the St. Cleve Chronicle and I am glad there are other Tull fans. Having been a Tull fan since the late 60's, I now in my 40's listen to Tull all the time. I have seen them perform 10 times since '73. Unfortunately, they don't come to Denver, CO any more. They should play at Red Rocks amphiltheatre again or go back to the small venues like the Light and Dark tour (my favaorite #9). Keep up the great work. I will be impatiently waiting for the next release, be it JT or IA solo. Kind regards, Ken Herrmann |

Great site. We have been Tull fans since 1970 and while living in London saw the Broadsword concert at Wembly and as you might guess - IT WAS GREAT! I didn't know anyone could sing so long and play the flute non-stop and not loose his breath. Then, 12 years later in Atlanta, Georgia, Tull at the 25 year concert was EVEN BETTER. I,m sure you have the box set - outstanding. This guy is unreal in the best sort of way. After all this Ian has common sense and he is down to earth. I wish more people in this world could be the same as far as attitude. |

Dear Jan, I am also a lover and student of Ian's lyrics. I am age 25 and live in Arkansas, USA. I have all of Jethro Tull's albums. I have attended six concerts during three tours. I hope and pray for more. As far as I know The Jolly Jethros have only played in Arkansas twice. So I drove many hours to Chicago concerts twice. I love Tull! Thank you for designing this reference webpage. I look forward to learning from it and contributing to it possibly. My friend, who travels to Europe, told me that Ian is nicknamed the "Flute Man" in Europe. He's enough minstrel for me! Kinley |

I am very pleased you have already done what I intended to do. I was going to write a page dedicated to Nightcap. A brilliant work (especially the latter half of the album, I visualize the whole play of the "failed" passion play but yet IMHO it make a passion play look like the disaster) I do have a reccomedation though. You really need a background. That dull grey makes your page look boring, and uninteresting. A few animated gifs, or even a site map with a navigational bar instead of your plain text. If you would like I am very willing to help, or with your permission, I will mirror the site in my own image give you full credit for all the work. I really do applaude the effort you have put in. Backgrounds, buttons and banners, are NOTHING compared to what you have accomplished, but still, it would make your GREAT website perfect. |

My job has me in front of a computer with web access much of the day, so I have devoured your page. I have been a Tull fan since my late teens, and in those few years listening to Ian's lyrics has been like waking from a wonderful dream: just as the warm, pink mist of sleep is begining to evaporate. I know something special has happened, but I can't quite put my finger on it. But, Jan, now I understand! Thank you, thank you, thank you... and thank you once more. |

Excellent site -I am especially impressed by the annotation of SftW and HH (two of my favorites).
