Martin's Acoustic Tull Disc

[Dan]

Martin has samples of his new acoustic Tull Disc up on his Player.
Some songs:
Fires at Midnight
Home
Moths
One Brown Mouse
From A Dead Beat (?)..
... and sorry to say a couple I don't recognize from the short clips. Help me out lads and lasses.

Sounds great, but I can't hear anything more than you.

We were hoping to bring Tull fans a few surprises with the new record. We'll know this week.

Great, great stuff. I can't wait to hear the entire thing!!

This really does sound good. I love instrumentals, so this is awesome for me I may end up liking this version of "Home" better than the original.

Great guitar work on Moths. The others I don't recognize as Tull songs, but they sound really good. It's also good to hear Martin on acoustic--I've grown so accustomed to his electric sound.

Thanks a lot for the heads up Dan. This is great

I so can't wait for this album and to see him live again later this year. Beautiful!!

A record deal is eminent if not completed by now. Stay tuned for more details on the new CD and Martin coming soon.

Great! This album could so easily have become a KTel "easy listening album, with pipe and slippers", but luckily Martin has too much talent for that - its intricacies put pay to easy listening options, thankfully!

For the most part it sounds pretty amateurish and basicaly the same as any previous Martin's solo acoustic stuff. I'm not excited at all!

Amateurish? Martin?

[Tullabye]

Those snippets are very disappointing. Geez Martin show some creativity. I don't want simple melodies with Martin playing flutes and whistles. Give me something like Protect and Survive (all guitar!!!) off the 25th Anniversary album but those samples are pretty boring.

Martin's new disc is available for pre order @ Amazon UK.
TM, any idea if this will be released via Amazon in the US?
I pre ordered 2 copies anyway.

Hey Danno, I'm aware that Martin's new disc is not up on Amazon US yet. According to Martin this album is definitely being released in the US

I have heard that it is delayed. The new release date is Oct 7, or that is when Amazon UK says.

Also you can not pre order on Amazon USA. Which makes me wonder if the record company has reservations about a worldwide release. Or at least a release in the USA. I am hoping that I do not have to order through Amazon UK, but it is looking more like I will have too.

I did pre order two copies from Amazon UK and I got this message the other day about a delayed release. I hope it gets here by Christmas: Dan
