On November 2nd 1975 was Jeffrey Hammond-Hammond's last show with Jethro Tull. The 7000 seat Elliot Music Hall on the campus of Perdue University was filled to capcity. The folks in West Lafayette Indiana were treated to Jeffrey's juggling skills, his normal props were rumored to have been replaced with some real horse shit. So on that night Jeffrey rid himself of his stage attire and the extra Hammond that Ian had attached to his sir name.
And to really let it all set in this appeared in the December 20th 1975 edition of New Musical Express..Jeffrey has returned to painting his principal interest

Read More: Ian Anderson Says Jethro Tull Will Never Get Back Together by Nick DeRiso February 24, 2015Anderson is pushing back against those who want a reunion of longtime members of Jethro Tull, saying he prefers to work with the current lineup. “I am rather bemused by the fan gossip surrounding who might be, or should be, at my side in concert,” Anderson recently wrote on the band’s official website. “All of the musicians in the current band have performed as members of Jethro Tull during the last decade. They are fine musicians, wonderful people and my closest friends.” Well I'm not so sure about them being friends let alone Ian's closest friends. It was a bemusing article for sure...:-)

THE GRAND SLAMBOVIANS TO PLAY BOSTON www.slambovia.com THE GRAND SLAMBOVIANS TO PLAY BOSTON (CAMBRIDGE) ON MARCH 15 (Slambovians’ A Box of EveryThing Tour Comes To Johnny D’s) The Slambovian Circus of Dreams (AKA The Grand Slambovians) will be performing at Johnny D's on March 15 at 8:00 pm. Johnny D’s is at 17 Holland Street, in Somerville, MA. Everyone 10 and older will be admitted, children need to be accompanied by grownups. Tickets are $22. The venue number is 617-776-2004. The website is johnnyds.com. "Rootsy psychedelica - songs rivaling any in a rich, intensely original, defiantly quirky canon." - Elmore Magazine Johnny D’s is one of the final shows of the A BOX OF EVERYTHING tour by The Slambovian Circus of Dreams (AKA The Grand Slambovians). In 2014 the New York band put together "the greatest Slambovian hits you've never heard" - the release, A BOX OF EVERYTHING', is just that. With a bit more firepower behind the band ('Box' is the first Sony/Red distributed album in their decade long career), a bigger audience worldwide was reached and as the year long tour comes to an end, the band is bringing their brand of rootsy psychedelica to home territory at Teaneck's Mexicali Live. Formed in Sleepy Hollow, New York, the Slambovians are pioneers of the alt-folk/americana genre and paved the way for DIY before it was fashionable turning down major label deals all along the way. THE NY TIMES says of the Slambovians, "Their songs are imbued with mystical stirrings and idealism... they take the stage by storm!". Their fiercely independent selves present not only quirky Americana and Zen-like anthems, but a universe entirely of their own making. Likened to an array of artists including the Waterboys, Jethro Tull, The Decemberists, a quirkier Tom Petty or Buffalo Tom with an exotic instrumental arsenal, their "dusty Americana ballads" evoke Dylan, Cracker, or the Wallflowers. UK'S MAVERICK MAGAZINE calls them "Mightily impressive and hugely original… the cool end of americana". "The Hudson River Valley's best kept secret."- JamBase.com Showtime is 8:00 pm. Doors/Dinner 6:00 PM. The Slambovians are Joziah Longo - songwriter/vocals/guitar/harmonica, Sharkey McEwen - guitar/mandolin, multi-instrumentalist Tink Lloyd - accordion/cello/ukelele/theremin, melodica and Eric Puente, drums/percussion.

"Everything we do, consciously or not, is show business. A lot of people pretend the show business thing doesn't exist. They say, "Look, we are down-to-earth honest real people." I don't think there is an honest person in show business. Every time you go in front of an audience you become an act."...Ian Anderson ..November 9th 1968

Hi Sonet To my knowledge there are 3 Norwegian red Sonet singles they are:
Norwegian
T-9557 1969 Bouree/Back To The Family (Picture Sleeve) T-7792 1970 Witch's Promise/Teacher T- 7863 1971 Life Is A Long Song,Up The Pool/Dr.Bogenbroom,From Later,Nursie (Picture Sleeve)
Sweden also released 2 singles on the Sonet label
T-7792 1970 Witch's Promise/Teacher (Picture sleeve) T-7792 1970 Witch's Promise/Teacher (Picture sleeve) Blue Vinyl T-7863 1971 Life Is A Long Song,Up The Pool/Dr.Bogenbroom,From Later,Nursie (Picture Sleeve)
The Norwegian singles are much rarer than the Swedish singles. I have 2 of the 3 Norwegian singles and are missing the Witch's Promise/Teacher. Last I price I saw for a Norwegian Bouree Back to the Family was on EBAY not to long ago and it was starting at 400 dollars, the condition was good to very good. I have never seen the other two singles for sale anywhere, but I did acquire my copy of Life Is A Long Song and Bouree from a Tull trader many years ago. Not sure I would be willing to part with them, PM me with an offer I can't refuse, and maybe I will consider selling them. But will gladly keep an eye out for them
The Swedish singles are not difficult to acquire they are regularly seen for sale in various markets., The regularly go for 25 dollars and up to 50 dollars on a good deal . The blue vinyl Sonet is regularly sold for under 50 dollars the black vinyl one can sell for 30 to 50 dollars. Although I did see it going for 25 dollars not long ago. The Life is A Long Song EP also will show up on different sites for under 30 dollars.
Thanks for swinging by Sonet, let me know if you need any more information, I will gladly share it with you. Charlie

That was a great snippet there Pat. Rather interesting the people who were on board, it is too bad that the movie never got made. I bet it would be a great chapter in a book on Tull. Just thinkin round corners..
