Here is the interview: Ageless Troubadour- A Chat with Ian Anderson There is also a companion piece about some of the early recordings and various pressings: Early Tull on Vinyl Enjoy.

Bill:

Thanks for sharing this, and of course for writing it. I'm a huge Tull fan and also respect (as Ian obviously does) the work of Steven Wilson. I love that he was so complimentary and respectful of what Steve does with these early recordings. Nothing like when one hero of mine mentions another like that. Thanks for asking that questions.
