We Used To Know (Stand Up - released 1969)
With You There To Help Me (Benefit - released 1970)
Ian Anderson appears on stage at around 5:50 to play dueling flutes with Paul
With thanks to Steve Harrison, who took this footage.

Is this for real?!? Absolutely phenomenal. I play about 400 songs on acoustic guitar. 398 of them are Ian. No one never has or will cover him like you, sir. Bravo.
Mark - thank you so much for your kind words. They mean a lot!!
The voice is spot on and great flute playing along with the stage movements.
Thought I was dreaming… We Used to Know, (a favourite track), a young Ian Anderson and old Martin Barre! Paul Forrest take a bow! What a star! Just amazing
Fantastic voice and performance!! Thanks, Paul!
What an honor. Great job! Kudos to Ian as well for sharing the stage. I didn't think he'd ever give up the spotlight like that, even for a little while.
Thanks for your comment, Anthony. Yes, Ian was unusually gracious in that regard.
Martin: Hey Ian, there's this guy who can sing better than you. Do you mind sitting this one out?
Ian: OK, but only if I can swoop in at the end and show him how it's really done!
Started watching without checking info, saw a 1972 Ian Anderson without a codpiece and an old Martin Barre, thought wtf, then, after a double-take realized he was the special guest. The short beard and the fuller hair should halve been a clue, but I swear if you did a voice print analysis , his voice would be almost identical to Anderson's 😮
Outstanding and absolute perfection 😊
Much better then the actual Band! Ian is done
That’s the Tull sound from the old days!
You got the voice down 👍🏻
Fantastic
Absolutely the best job of covering Ian Anderson I've ever seen. Fantastic!
Damn dude, I'm a huge Tull fan. You sounded just like Ian from the 70's. That was awesome!
Woah! That's just like young Ian! I'm so curious how the licensing works for these various tribute artists such as those who do Pink Floyd and Gabriel-era Genesis. There definitely needs to be more Tull tributes like this! There are some good ones on youtube in terms of music, but no one nails Ian like that!
I love this performance. I can't help imagining what it must have been like for Martin Barre to be performing with the old Ian. Thanks ... I'd love to see more of Paul Forrest. Such a great homage!
Excellent Ian Anderson impersonator.
OMG! OMG!
The voice, the MOVES, OMG.
The voice, OMG! The MOVES, OMG! The moves! The VOICE!
This is *insanely* excellent. And no, I am not an employee or stockholder or are connected whatsoever with Paul and Marcie Forrest :)
Thanks, Bill, check's in the mail! 😉🤣
It is an excellent version. Absolutely hits the spot.
Great job dude..seen many Tull concerts since the 70's, they were an event. Saw Ian a few years ago, it was an event but kinda sad to see too but I'm still an Ian Tull fan for sure
Fantastic
Awesome. Love these songs... well done.
Sounds good and some of the early antics of IA were nicely reproduced, but the real IA still moves in a more energetic and precise way to the music - at least in 2008. :-)
That was great
Bravissimo, this gentleman has Ian down to a tee, absolutely brilliant.
Perfeito.
Parabéns!!!
He is very good. It would, however, be unrealistic to expect him to caper and clown about like Ian. Kudos from a die hard Tull fan!
You have to watch more of this talented performer!
T(r)ully amazing
🎉🎉🎉🎉💯💯👏
The mannerisms and presentation are almost identical. Have to take a long, hard look to see whether or not it is IA up there!
Martin barre should ditch the band he's currently with and join forces with this bloke.
Exactly
Couldn't tell if he had a cod piece...not that I was looking
Ian ! Time to stand down.
Someone copyed someone, Who came first jet or egale
The Tull piece is earlier, but as a huge Tull fan I must admit I find the Eagles' rendition better.
