Tonight on O’Reilly’s program he had a tribute to Tony.
Some wonderfully moving clips of Tony playing the flute.
We have lost a dear dear friend when we lost Tony and the world is so much poorer for his loss.
RIP, Mr. Snow.

The next time you try to make me listen to Jethro Tull on the phone, from 2400 miles away, I’ll listen, just because of his good taste in friends.
At least, this friend.

I’ll admit that my opinion of Ian Anderson was negative. Until now.
Classy tribute. Unlike many liberals, Mr. Anderson knows that everything in life isn’t about politics.

Most liberals have been taught that anyone who disagrees with them is a hateful person to be scorned.
I believe Mr. Anderson’s liberalism does not run as deep as he would like to think.

I sat in the audience a couple of years ago at a Ian Anderson concert in Washington, DC, emceed by Tony.
Tony played several pieces with Ian...including a couple of great flute duets.

God's peace for your soul and your family, Tony. We will miss you. And thanks for the kind words for our friend, Ian. You, too are "an old-fashioned gentleman".

I believe Mr. Anderson’s liberalism does not run as deep as he would like to think. OK, I wanted to get to the end of the posts before saying anything, until I came to yours. Ian has been making music for over 40 years under the Tull banner. I would urge all of you to give it a listen. The musicianship is unsurpassed (which album? Pick one! Songs from the Wood and Heavy Horses are my current faves, but I own all 40 albums.) Good man, good mind, good music. By UK standards probably a conservative, just my guess. He is in my top three of people I would like to meet before I move on.

Saw him in concert in the 70s and it was one of the most memorable I’ve seen and that includes Elvis.

Just read “Curcumin is the yellow pigment of turmeric, the primary ingredient in curry powder. Laboratory tests have shown that curcumin helps dissolve the abnormal amyloid formations of Alzheimer’s disease.”.
Eat lots of curry; doctor (Mojid Fotuij at Johns Hopkins)also recommended curcumin 200mg per day capsules.
Look after yourself, noname, and stay strong.
