The • Aqualung • Interview - a Bungey-Anderson presentation


When  a musician is coherent, the night drive evolves into a coherent and uplifting experience.

Jethro Tull, the longest serving cosmic-rock band, resides alone in a corner of the musical landscape, where lyrics rather than melody characterize the band, where poetry rather than pungency characterizes its lyrics and where a grammarian characterizes its doctrine.

Listening to the Ian Anderson 1996 Interview in the Aqualung re-release, the unheralded in the equation is interviewer John Bungey for Mojo Magazine who gently embraces his candidate waxing lyrical about the band.

Bungey underscores the Art of Interviewing by (a) hovering on a distinctly lower decibel track than his candidate (b) plugging into the matrix only to sneak in a question and perhaps find his own bearings in the process and (c) generally stepping back to allow the audience embrace the full fabric of Anderson's oral examination.

Words, Videography, Action - Tommy Peters

Afterword: The writer made the video from his car on March 17th 2011 whilst driving in the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur and listening to the Anderson-Bungey presentation.
