Well, I gotta agree with him on For a Thousand Mothers. It's not a bad song, but Ian's vocals are buried. Love that flute line though.
 
(by the way, the version on Live Aisle of Wight, no better. Might even be worse)

I assume you bought the Aqualung remaster. You really should pick up Living in the past if you haven't got that. It has some great songs from 1971 too

But it doesn't have "YOO WERE ONLY SHEVENTEEN," aka, Led Zep w/flute, does it?

I confirm!! This is an absolute must have from the first era, chronologically between Aqualung and TAAB.

However, i've been choked to read on the CD that they simply removed some pieces to make the whole fit into one CD...What a shame! I don't know the vynil, so if someone has it, that would be highly interesting to know about these "extra" pieces. Moreover, there's maybe another CD version which features all tracks.

Yeah! And Ian didn't dedicate it to no one! Not cool my friends...when's Martin Barre get his own?

i think the extra song on vinyl is one of the songs on Benefit. I know it's on one of the remasters.

Uh, hmm. Just so happens that Benefit is one of those albums I keep next to my computer. Tracks found on both albums (unless I'm mistaken) include: Singin' All Day, Witch's Promise and Just Tryin' ter Be (all bonuses), and Inside (album proper). I think some versions of Living in the Past include Alive Well and Living In, or perhaps Michael Collins, Jeffrey 'n Me? Those are the ones on the vinyl, not on the CD (which is why I'm usure about them), both off the album proper.

Right, right! Teacher was on Living, and it's a Beneficial Bonus.
