[TullPoster]

Has there ever been anyone with vocal qualities that could compare to Ian Anderson during this period?

[zdna6969]

wow this a rare gem

[astraela]

Seriously one of my favorite songs...

[kurtizzyflush]

@Nightfall95 Good ear!

[spritelymuse]

Does anyone know why there's an "error" message and it won't play?

[wardka]

This is longer than the mp3 version I have! Does this sound so awesome because it really is one of the better Tull pieces from that era, or is it because we can't really have it? A clean version I mean? I love all those key changes - it just keeps climbing . . .

[abarbar06]

maybe robert plant, David bowie also has/had a really great voice. I like Ian Anderson better still though

[ghellogm]

Ending I mean... sorry of overcommenting

[ghellogm]

By the way, my version is slightly longer, and the beginning crossfades into "No Rehearsal" (which is the last song on the 22 minute tape)

[ghellogm]

It does. "Sailor" is part of a 22 minute studio tape, and before of it there's "Skating Away".

Good song, great melody, although it's quite clear unfortunately that is unfinished :(

[Nightfall95]

Yup, originally on the Chateau recordings in 1973 which then turned into A Passion Play. Also I read somewhere that this connects with Skating Away. The beginning of this song sounds like the last sound you hear fade out at the end of Skating Away.
