Nothing personal, though I don't subscribe and stick with channels that often and I float around. Point is, it's so good to see you're delving further with your insightful reactions with more of one of my favorite old bands, Jethro Tull. Thanks a heap for more of this stuff! Here, in more recent years, there is the unfortunate further deterioration of Ian's voice and odd hesitations in his vocal mannerisms. By the way, did you think he had a little, you- know-what on the roof of his house? Lol.
I can't believe you only have 34.5K subscribers. It is such a joy to watch you deconstruct Jethro Tull. There are many reaction videos on UA-cam, but almost none of them are as pure as yours. Thank you for the magic.
I´ve known the "Heavy Horses" LP since the mid 90´s, and, though I´ve always liked it, I used to feel like it was a LESSER work in comparison to "Aqualung", or "Thick...", but, lately, I have REDISCOVERED IT completely, and it has become one of my FAVOURITES. Its Heaviness, its delicate Folkishness, the amazing electric guitar work by Barre, the magical orchestral & keyboard arrangements, Glascock´s beautiful basslines, the intricate, yet Blunt, Barrie´s drumming, plus, of course, Ian´s genius at all the rest, make it a MASSIVELY INTERESTING & FULLFILLING ALBUM, indeed!!
Since first, watching a video a few days ago on your channel, I’ve been kind of fixated with Jethro, Tulll’s dangling, right pinky. Is it possible that an order to do his technique that he developed superior hand and arm strength, such that he did not have to use his right hand support the end of the flute. He needed the freedom to be able to move his fingers in the matter he wanted to. Basically, he came up with a completely different way to hold the flute. He modified his grip in order to get the results he wanted. I think this is pretty fundamental and set them apart from your style. This is fascinating. Keep making videos please
The technical curiosity and points are very interesting. It adds to my love of Ians playing. I've noticed Heline that you don't do much, if any commentary about their compositions, about the overall songs, but what you do bring to us is the interesting aspects of his playing the flute. Love it.
I've never seen this live performance, Toward the end of your playing, it did very much sound like Ian. I very much hope that you will get to meet him someday
Everything from Tull's folk trilogy of albums is great, but I've always had a soft spot for "Heavy Horses." Would love to hear you react to "And The Mouse Police Never Sleeps." It has a pretty fun flute part on it!
One of the best examples of Ian Anderson bending a long note is the very last note of "Strange Avenues" (1989). It's heard best on the studio recording but you can also find a concert video. Also, the concert version of "Farm on the Freeway" features such a bend, also at the very end. It's impressive that Ian Anderson only uses one hand and his mouth for that.
The most unfortunate part of this is that Ian can *barely* sing in this performance (and it's from 18 years ago), but he's a better flautist than ever. Never heard a single person do glissandos that smoothly on a flute, and he makes it look completely effortless.
It's an odd thing. I'm pretty sure he really should have had the nodule surgery back in the 80s after his voice failed in the tour to support Under Wraps. That said, I saw them in 2009 and he was singing really well. In fact, watching this video, it makes me wonder if he doesn't have the mic set a bit too low and if that results in the voice not being so well detected by it and thus dropping out - so it sounds like weaker than it is. Clearly not anything like as strong as in the 70s or early 80s though.
@@jonathanmercer7109 Yeah, I've seen performances where he just knocks it out pretty easily despite all, Montreux 2003 comes to mind, and this is not one of those times. He still sounds pretty decent in the studio, but boy should he ever just hire a singer.
I’m surprise he can sing at all. “Ian Anderson revealed he is suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a disease that causes obstructed airflow from the lungs, making it difficult to breathe. In an interview with Dan Rather on "The Big Interview" Wednesday, the Jethro Tull frontman discussed his health struggles.May 14, 2020”
Hi Heline. Thank you for that video. Talking about that "supersimple to do" overblown trill, you have seen and heard it in the beginning of "Cross-Eyed Mary", one of the earlier hits.
in a previous video you commented that his fingers are straight and when you play yours appears to be curved. if he is using straight finger is that how he get the half notes easier than you can?
There is a teen aged female that plays all Jethro Tull bass lines. on bass guitar to many many Tull songs. she is on you tube, Oh my god she is so great !!!!!!
I can understand you having a thought that the song may have a " dirty" meaning because Mr. Anderson does reference "dirty" things in some of his songs and I've seen him do so in interviews as well. I enjoy his humor and innuendo. Lol
It would be interesting to compare this to the studio version from the Album. Ian's voice deteriorated in that time, but his flute play got more complex and the band performed way more freestyle.
It seems to me that every single expert that tries to decipher and deceminate I. A. techniques. All of them sound very slow and somewhat amauterish by comparison, when they try to reproduce his playing techniques. We must remember that he is playing this live in front of 50,000 +
Very good reaction! I enjoy your channel. You are a pleasure to watch. I'm by no means musically talented, but I do enjoy good music. Started with rock & roll in the early 1960's, and now moved to primarily classical. At 73 years old, I to listen to music that pleases me. ❤
Min 6:00 Don't forget his flute is connected to an amp with a lot of gadgets like sustain, reverb and octave perhaps even auto tune making it sound a lot easier and better on chromatic runs.
Ian claims that he damaged his vocal chords singing on the "Under Wraps" LP ! The oriental sound, I call British folk sound. Reminds me of Steeleye Span.
I love live music and I like that you use live performances for these reaction videos, but this is one song I suggest you listen to the recorded version. which. musically, is much more interesting than this, if only for John Glascock's wonderful bass playing.
On the original recording of Weathercock on the album Heavy Horses, there is more drumming of the type that makes it sound like a Scottish marching band. Sadly that's missing in later recordings and this performance. Give that a listen and see if you think of Scottland instead of the Orient.
Awesome song; the sound of autumn. Much better to listen to the original album version (or a live version from the late 70s) when his voice was great and the band sounded like they really meant it. In comparison, this is the supermarket version.
He cares the flute now. He describe the flutes the his career. "With our first trip to America, my French Selmer flute gave out and was replaced with a US made Artley, a basic student model sturdily made for the school band trade. At one time I owned more than twenty Artleys, in various states of repair (or lack of) and each tour in the seventies started with my finding the best bits to put together to make up three playable instruments for the duration. Having given most away to charity auctions over the years, I retain only a couple, now largely unplayable. For a while I switched to 600 series flutes by Pearl, a Japanese company, and then more recently in the early nineties to Sankyo Silversonics and the US-made 2100 and 3100 Powell flutes. I use the Powells for recording and take a Sankyo and a Powell on tour. The intonation and sonority of the Powell is better, but the Sankyo blows more loudly and easily, especially when the player’s lips are fatigued and thus less articulate. The Powell has a narrower bore and a more demanding “Q” or “P” headjoint than the free-blowing Sankyo raised shoulder “NSR1” headjoint. My practice, or kitchen, flute is a Yamaha student model, cheapest in the line, and well recommended. I take it on holiday and leave it assembled when at home to pick up and puff on whenever passing. It undoubtedly helped when I gave up smoking, a good few years ago."
Where does flutist come from and when did it start to be used? Because I've always refer to myself as a flautist. I'm not a professional just played for my own enjoyment for about 50 years.
I can understand your concern that 'weathercock' might be a rude reference. However, the word 'cock' shows up in many nonrude references. Of course, it is another word for rooster. It is suggested by some articles that 'weathercock' come from a sculpure of a rooster often being placed atop them. However, I think that is likely wrong. 'Cock' seems to have a common meaning in something that turns. Hence, there is a stopcock, which is a faucet handle of sorts. A specific type of that is a ballcock, which seems even ruder til you know what it is. When a horse lifts it's tail, the tail is said to be 'cocked'. When a person wears his hat at a sporty angle, the hat is said to be cocked or to have a jaunty cock. When the hammer of a gun is pulled back in readiness for firing, it is said to be cocked. All of these have the common sense of something being turned from one position to another. So, if you come across the term 'cock' in English, you needn't assume it is rude - but then we also like our puns, so people will often have double meanings used regarding words like cock or ball.
As someone who has never even tried to play the flute, can I just say your detailed explanations and explorations are really interesting - I would never have guessed that was the hard part of the piece! Lovely flute playing from Ian here, but overall I prefer the original, more up-tempo version of the song. Give it a listen sometime, just for fun.
I think that I would trade my sonic screwdriver for his flute. Yep. *wink wink* Incidentally, I don't believe that Ian plays an open hole flute. At least not that I have ever seen, and I am an avid, albeit self taught, flute player too.
I totally agree with you!! imagine what a moment ... as soon as Heline should see Ian entering in her house for an interview ... I'm sure that Heline smile will light all the room! And for us a spectacular video to enjoy!
Hello Heline. Have you tried to sing play the flute like Ian Anderson? It's fun to dig into your knowledge about flute and music. Give Ruusa and Sylvi a big hug and hope Alma is coming home soon. 💙💙🎼🎼🎶🎶
The studio version on Heavy Horses is very martial in its sound, with stereotypical military drum cadences and heavy downbeats. Ian's singing in this one deliberately subverted that, with lots of syncopation and anticipated/delayed beats. Personally, I prefer the original sound, but I can understand not wanting to sing everything the same damn way for 40 years...
What you are calling flute is more commonly called the recorder. The other one you demonstrated and called a whistle, is usually referred to as a metal flute. The most common flute in most parts of the world is the bamboo flute - just like your metal flute, but made of bamboo. There are many more variations
i just found you a week ago and already you are starting to grow on me! i would love to support you but i do not do ANY electronic money. i am strictly cash and checks. if you can figure out a way to make it work, i would be glad to help your channel
Toi Ian ei pysty enää laulamaan niinku ennen 70 luvulla. sääli. ääni pettää. oon käyny Kulttuuritalolla keikan ja se ääni pihisi ja katosi ku vanhempaa matskua soitti ja tää oli 20 v sitte 😭

At the end, you mention him doing that technique elsewhere. Was it in "cross-eyed Mary'? That's what it sounded like to me.
Oh yeah that was it!
Love your TARDIS mug!
Great reaction. You sure picked up on that glissando thing quickly!
Loving your TARDIS coffee mug
Check out early Chicago, maybe start with "it better end soon" live versions. Would love to see your reaction.
in a previous video you commented that his fingers are straight and when you play yours appears to be curved. if he is using straight finger is that how he get the half notes easier than you can?
Ian was bemused when he played Columbia, SC & heard the football team were the Gamecocks. Many a weather vane features a rooster.
There is a teen aged female that plays all Jethro Tull bass lines. on bass guitar to many many Tull songs. she is on you tube, Oh my god she is so great !!!!!!
Why don't you contact him and ask him how he does it? Might lead to an amazing conversation!
Do you need an open whole flute? Is it “double tonguing?”
I can understand you having a thought that the song may have a " dirty" meaning because Mr. Anderson does reference "dirty" things in some of his songs and I've seen him do so in interviews as well. I enjoy his humor and innuendo. Lol

Northen European with a splash or Middle Eastern influence.
I may be wrong.
The man that made that singlehandedly made the flute cool
So it’s fair to say you’re learning from Ian Anderson?

I'm sorry, but your demonstration of talent with the flute was beyond subpar. For you to rate a magnate such as he is improper.
