Wow, I didn't expect this... I thought how dare anyone attempt to cover a Tull song. But, I am astounded, this is immaculate. Absolutely magnificent !

How does he sound EXACTLY like Ian? That’s crazy!!! 😲

INCREDIBLE. UNBELIEVABLE. THE MASTERPIECE OF IAN ANDERSON. I WONDER, GUYS, HOW MANY HUNDREDS OF HOURS YOU WERE REHEARSING... IT IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Truly phenomenal.

You made my heart smile and swell. Then tears of joy filled my eyes and ran down my face.❤️‍🔥💖🫶

Voice is spot on, and the head movements and shifty eyes are just like Ian too..... Plus the flute. Nice job.

When I hear music this pure, this beautiful, this genuine, I am overwhelmed with unspeakable emotion, and I end up crying.....

How absolutely wonderful

Love your to homage to Tull. Your are both great.

Bravo, !!!! Excellent job. You both play and sing beautifully.!!!!

His voice is spot on. And great guitar and flute. Well done. Splendid.

Superb!! Absolute perfection 😊. Thank you both for this outstanding and wonderful performance.

This is just impossible. Such beauty, my god.. You two are IT... Feels like i am witnessing a miracle...

Wow, what a wonderful cover! Absolutely breathtaking!👌

This is what I call a great cover, one that shows a meticulous detail to remain true to the original style. The instrument mastery is pretty obvious, and perfectly made to cover Ian.

What a performance and quality of the song. Thanks for sharing.

Brilliant edit! To me the best parts of the song. Acoustic only.

Beautyfull !!!! Ian's struggling with his voice in the last few years ,this guy should tour with ian, his singing is gorgeous and a beautyful flute . Well done !!!!

What an incredible vocal.....I've always imagined Ian's voice would be hard to reproduce but you absolutely did!! Great performance ftom you both. Thanks!

It's just........(speachless)!!! Thank you!

I just love this performance.

Truly inspiring! I have been playing this over and over practicing the lessons learned in Paul's tutorial...fantastic feeling of finally getting this after 40 years! So awesome, guys. :

Well heck you got this down. When you got to "Do you believe in the day?" I was completely entranced.

What an outstanding performance by both of you! Just loved it. TAAB unplugged!

That was awesome! Hit on all my favorite parts of the song!

What can I say that hasn't already been said here. As a self taught musician and aficionado, all I can say about TAAB is that for the last 50+ years no performance/recording has had such a predictably exhilarating effect on me than JT's original acetate rendition. Only thing that comes dangerously close is Ludwig Van's 9th! And you have somehow you two have achieved a remarkable, probably unmatched facsimile. Amazingly faithful, respectful vocals. I feel such a kinship with both of you! Thank you.

Best Ian vocals I've ever heard. Congrats on your excerpts and how you covered this magnificent piece of music. Utterly listenable more than any other. TAAB Unplugged!

I've loved the music of Tull since my teens (I'm 68 now). They're one of my all time fave bands.

Everything about this is amazing. Thank you.

Don't normally last through Tull "tributes" but you two are great. I would pay money to see you. Keep Tulling.

Oh my gosh. The voice is identical to that of Ian. How is that possible? What an impeccable performance. I hope Ian hears this...

Over fourty years ago when I was in tenth grade in High school my history teacher made the class listen to the whole " Songs From the Wood" album ( he was a big fan ) and I liked one of the songs , so I bought the album and it's been one of my favorite bands ever since , and this couples version of this song is quite good .

What do I think?..... AWESOME!!! BEYOND BELIEF!!! And that goes for all the songs Paul's band does. There does not seem to be any limitation to what Paul's band is doing with Jethro Tull's music. I would like to see a couple of songs from the album, "Songs from the Wood", if you happen to see this comment. Thanks for all the great music from this legendary band.

Spectacular! I I saw Jethro Tull in 1972 on there thick as a brick tour. I close my eyes and I couldn’t Tell the difference!

I had the pleasure of playing bass with Paul in “The Jethro Tull Experience”. He is the real deal and absolutely channels Ian when he is on stage with his authentic accent (he’s a Brit), vocals, flute playing , guitar playing and, when in character, the look. Perhaps even more impressive is the fact that he also fronted a Rolling Stones tribute and perfectly nailed Mick Jagger as well. Talented musician along with his wife, Marcy, who is a fantastic flautist, drummer and vocalist.

Speechless. Thank you!

If i had any musicial talent to build up a Jethro Tull Cover Band. My choice is your vocals. Never thought i say this. I love Ian.

Absolutely lovely!! These two solve my greatest issue with live Tull over the past 50 years: a lot of the wonderful flutes lines go missing during performance because Ian can’t both sing and play flute at the same time!!! Such a wonderful piece of music! Hope I’m hearing it for another 40!!

Exceptionally talented.

Phenonenal! A flutist friend (RIP) and i used to do similar parts of this suite at local bars while the rabble booed us and screamed for lynyrd skynyrd and mettallica! You two sound great and i liked the Aqua Lung Ending. Cheers from Buffalo NY

What i wouldn’t give to have a DVD of the 1972 concert that i attended. I was on the 5th row on the floor center. These were fold up chairs and after everyone scooted up a little closer i was about 25 feet from the stage. I had just turned 21 years old. Over all these years and the 100’s of concerts i have attended, Thick as a Brick 1972 stands above them all.

Mind Blown!! Great performance; several times I anticipated Martin and Barrie kicking in. Great work!!!

This is the one tribute band that I thought that I would never see, and I've seen a lot of them. Because there is a certain kind of complexity to this music, and instrumentation, that it would take a very unique talent to reproduce this sound. This is very impressive work by this band. I would think Ian Anderson would be amazed at how well his music and legacy is commemorated through this band's performance.

Incredible!! You nailed it. Voice, expressions and movements. Flute great too.

Just stunningly beautiful. Thank you

Tull.... Most underrated band in history. Brilliant!!!

Not only does the singer capture more than a touch of Ian's madness, he sounds like Ian too - something about the effects or EQ on the mic. Good guitar work, too. Well done, son - well done!

Awesome voice,Ian would be amazed,how close he is, genuine can't beat live music.❤

Thank you for this wonderful presentation of Jethro Tull

Thank you, Greetings from EAST- Berlin. ❤❤❤

Outstanding ! Amazing rendition . Thank you

Very well done ! I wish Ian would make Paul sing in the band, really. And you chose one of my favourite section of the whole work in the end.... Splendid.

I see the last comment was 9 months ago. I have only just heard of you two and played this. It is staggering. Oh what music to my ears. I saw Tull in Norwich UK YEARS back. The small venue went black and as the lights came up Ian emerged from this little tent on stage. It was a brilliant night. Now I am 70 and you brought back so many memories. Doing this song you are Ian with wild eyes .Wonderful guitar work and flute and that voice. It IS Ian. Thank you for giving me so much joy. Good luck in all that I hope you’re still doing.

Awesome performance they really gave this beautiful song its full credit for a time we feel we are hearing Ian Anderson

I’ve been aTull fan forever and this is awesome

I pcked up my old beat up guitar and played along with you guys < thank you this 6 string still has a heartbeat in it !

One of the best... maybe the BEST cover I've ever heard!

Why..........Has it taken me sooo long to hear this!! I'm a fan right off. Hats off to you, Madame and Sir. Well Done!!!!!

Just seen this. Absolutely brilliant both of you. Superb playing and singing.😃

THANX , IT'S OUTSTANDING , THE VERY BEST EVER VOCAL AMONG ALL TULL' COVERS !!!!!!!!

So nice

Very good, congrats! Jethro Tull forever. Paul and Marcie Forrest they're wonderful. By Milton for Brazil.

Amazing and outstanding! Thanks you!

This is absolutely wonderful.

belleza , dignisimos musicos para interpretar este cover 😍😍😍😍😍!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well thought, this magnificent work can be sttriped down to a guitar, a voice and a flute.

I thought it was a tape of Anderson singing until I saw Paul actually singing. Listening to this cover underlines what a phenomenal song writer Anderson is. As for Marcie's flute playing, it may lack Anderson's attack, but that is well made up for by her beautiful lines.

One of the best covers - wonderful music - had the pleasure seeing you in Huntington New York 2014!

no easy task...love the "side two" version...believe in the day

Outstanding, took me back to the days of my youth

I became intrigued with your measured and articulate rendition. It kept me through the complete set. Thank you for your crafting of a revered classic from beloved I.A. and JT.

Absolutely great version of this song. The vocal was amazing too! Bravo!

I have been playing Tull since 1974 acoustic guitar and vocal. I have heard a lot of covers but yours definitely has the best Ian Anderson sounding vocal I've ever heard. I do thick as a brick but I don't do the "where the hell was biggles" part nor do I put Aqualung in there, but the rest I do as you do. I must say I thoroughly enjoyed it and I'll be listening to some of your others! Maybe you could do the vocals at the next JT concert since Ian has lost his voice...

Outstanding performance.

Really good cover. My compliments sir.

That was fantastic! Great performance by you both!

out efin standing ! no one does the light the sun on the back side, flute is perfect ! awesome awsome ! the effects on vocal are great

A time when instruments had to be played. Poetry to music. Old age is the price we pay for being there when this music was new and first played. A price well paying. Well done again, excellent.

2 years and still come here to hear you again! :-)

Stunning. One of the best covers of ANY song. Amazing.

Superb. The playing, phrasing and pace are spot on. Really top notch.

That performance is just incredible. Took me straight back to early '72, when I first heard this.

Brilliant cover well done from a huge Jethro Tull fan

Hello, everyone! Jumping in once again to thank all who have listened and left their lovely comments recently. Paul and I are very grateful for the positive feedback! We hope in the months to come, to record some more acoustic covers of Jethro Tull music and post it here. Paul has also been meaning to record some instructional videos and hopefully you'll see some of that too. In the meantime, let me know in the comments which songs from the classic era you'd like for us to cover! And... if you haven't already done so - we'd love for you to subscribe to the channel!

I want a DVD of this. A beautiful performance

It is amazing what you can discover on KZfaq...the first band i ever saw when i was 15 in liverpool in 72 i think. I was the only boy in school who got a ticket. The band appeared on stage as radiés then opened with the nearly release thick as a brick. My dad was horrified when he picked me up with all the long hair!. Lovely version here ...an unexpected please to come across..

This is superb, the best out there. Unfortunately Ian can't sing like that for many years. Thank you so much!

This is amazing, what a joy to find this. Well done.

Wish Ian would hire these two for future concerts. Marcie plays the flute, Paul sings and Ian could just stand on one leg.

I watch and listen to this several times a month. It just sounds good to my ears and I truly enjoy it. If there is a CD I would buy it!

A bit late to the party, but holy heck! That was such a terrific cover! I’ve been playing for about 50 years, always have loved TAAB, and have decided to finally learn it. Thank you for giving me a model to which I might aspire! 👍👍

Holy sh*t! Saying you're a cover band is an injustice. Amazing stuff Marcie and Paul. Sheesh.

Far too few people go for side 2, and this is *perfectly* executed. Can't get over how similar your voice is to Ian's.

The best thick as a brick cover I ever heard and even rivals, or surpasses some of the later versions that Jethro Tull has put out.

I love that he can imitate Ian’s mannerisms. You really sold it! Nicely done! You’ve made a new fan today.

Formidable!!! 👏👏👏

I often come back here to hear this masterpiece again and again... wonderful!

My soul needed this. Thank you.

Wonderful !!!!!❤❤❤

Wow! Very Impressive! I can't believe the vocals...excellent guitar playing...and as for Marcie...her flute playing is so spot on!
