It’s 2023 and I’m just now hearing and seeing this for the first time. You two are simply amazing!!!!! I’m a lifelong Ian and Tull fan. Have attended many many concerts since 1971. You have nailed Ian’s voice from the past. Congratulations are in order,
Tenho 67 anos. Acompanho o Jethro desde a década de 1980. É a banda da minha vida! E poder assistir a esse vídeo, constatar que as novas gerações também curtem essa música única, me deixa muitíssimo feliz, e certo de que Ian Anderson já está na galeria dos imortais. É o Jethro Tull!
Mind blowing. Musical perfection from both, and Paul has found out how to channel Ian Anderson's voice and delivery flawlessly. Simply amazing, and beautiful.....
Oh my God! I never expected to get a response from you, Marcie! I am thrilled! I've been an avid lover of music my entire life, and I was so happy to come across your video here. I was a teenager when Jethro Tull came upon the music scene, and I fell in live with their music, as well as Ian Anderson's entertaining theatrics immediately. You and Paul did the group more than justice! I still can't believe I'm corresponding with such a talented & gifted musician such as yourself! (I'm in the process of learning piano on my own, but I know I will never reach your level of musical expertise). Thank you for your unexpected reply here, and may God bless you and Paul in all that you do. Dave....
Very nice version. Benefit was the second ever LP I bought (1972 I think) and Sossity was my favourite song on the album in those days - played it over and over. Been a Tull fan ever since then. Thanks for posting this video.
I have watched both of you perform many Jethro Tull songs and I cannot create superlatives to express my amazement at the quality of your renditions. The vocals, guitar is spot on. The flute is amazing. Keep it up.
Marcie, Paul. We appreciate you Usually covers don't approach the original. Paul's voice perfect tone. IMO. I saw Tull in 72' Listening in Columbia, South Carolina. I'm so happy I stumbled on to you
Hey Marcie Nice to meet you Sat. WOW you are right I would not have recognized Paul if he knocked me over! Can't believe I missed this performance. I was on the Empty Sea mailing list around this time. Love that studio.
Awesome..........My best friend played the new JT. album in my bedroom with a Black light..........as a young teenager/ musician, I knew that I was instantly hearing something REALLY different.
Lovely! I never compare covers to originals because it's important to recognize effort and talent independently....and therefore I applaud your rendition, effort, and execution!
Always one of my favorites. I've been to a couple of Tull concerts. Paul and Marcie are truly gifted; it's as if they've channeled Ian Anderson. You can close your eyes and it's like being at a Jethro Tull concert. One of the best covers of an artist, period!
Greetings from Pakistan and an old Tullie .! You guys make a good team for JT cover songs. Sossoti is one of Tulls not so common song. Anderson has probably never done it live. Keep it up. Would like to hear more of such songs which are rarely heard. Would love to have guys do Journeyman, one of my favourites.
Thanks for your kind comment. "Journeyman" is a great song, but that signature bass line would be sorely lacking in any rendition of it we'd perform. 🙂
Thank you for reminding me, with your incredible rendition, just how truly great a song this really is. Unfortunately, now I can't get it out of my head. I guess that's not such a bad thing. Thanks again.
another great one.. that is a very difficult song to do.. that you took it on and did such a marvelous job. I would like to see you live if you're still performing when this Covid mess is over..
Wow, that's a pretty good rendition and your voice even sounds very close. Sossity was always one of my favourites, although uncle Jethro has written some great songs and music over the years. We always thought of him as the family musical genius.
This is one of my favorite songs from Benefit....you guys do a really admirable job here....have watched a number of your videos...there are a number where you guys are really "on"....some of the best "Tull Tributes" I've seen.
He sounds just like Ian Anderson who I`ve seen live with Tull. Missed a chance to see him solo- DAMN! Her flute is a little more sanitized than Anderson but she plays perfectly. Plus I think she`s cute.
I like how you are able to emulate Ians voice so closely. Great Job.!!!
You nailed Ians voice! Stunning!
Jethro Tull was in the early seventies my favorite band
and Benefit my first bought l.p.
This is simply awesome.
Listening quite often - you should be awarded by Ian - perfectly played all of Ian ' songs !!! Blimey, thousands thanks !
it's good to see people who appreciate this music enough to cover it. well done
Must be a joy to be able to play these songs together....there have been few in my sphere that would enjoy this,...but I always will.
Wow, with a touch of reverb on the vocals you really become Ian, Brilliant! and Bravo!😊
More please and thank you.
this so glorious! Flawless! ...
Jethro Tull : 1970-1973 at their peak, especially live ! Magic, unique and amazing !
Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull have quite a unique sound and you delivered this beautiful song very well.
Excellent music, brilliantly covered!
Great cover!

The best cover of Ian Anderson's unique voice that I've ever heard.
Very nice! The soul of Jethro Tull!
Beautifly delivered.

Huge Tull fan and you did a most excellent job on one of my favorites 👏👏👏
I could listen to you guys all day
A fantastic cover. I'd love to see you in concert...
Beautiful flute playing...just mesmerising to watch ...
Avid Tull fan. This is pretty good indeed. Enjoyed.
You both are amazing! Is it possible for you to do some more Tull as I have worn out the ones on you tube.
Of course! Join us this Saturday for an online performance! ruclips.net/user/liveeGIG3-2Z_pw?feature=share
Oh wow
Wished ian anderson sing that good now.
No es facil hacer un cover de esta hermosa cancion,y lo hacen exelente, feliciaciones y viva Jethro por siempre
those progressions are just great.
Always one of my favorites. I've been to a couple of Tull concerts. Paul and Marcie are truly gifted; it's as if they've channeled Ian Anderson. You can close your eyes and it's like being at a Jethro Tull concert. One of the best covers of an artist, period!
one of my jt favourites! that slight vocal efx makes it perfect! lovely flute!
Special effect for singing? Electro Harmonix chorus?

JT played Sossity (in medley with Reasons For Waiting), during Benefit tour. I ain't sure about later years though.
That is beyond exceptional. I hear a young Ian Anderson. I have no doubt Ian thinks very highly of this video if he has seen it. Well done!
Thanks so much for your kind comments!
FAntastic! really great version of a classic song. Some really intricate guitar picking.
always been 1 of my JTull favorites, great cover!! cheers
Thank you for reminding me, with your incredible rendition, just how truly great a song this really is. Unfortunately, now I can't get it out of my head. I guess that's not such a bad thing. Thanks again.
Absolutle perfect! Congratulations! Martin Vokroj from Czech republic!
Did I see Paul and Marcie at Huntington Long Island?
Thanks for your comment, Michael. We (Paul and Marcie) performed at the Jethro Tull convention in Huntington in 2014. 😊
Would love to see you do Jack-a_lynn!!
I literally applauded at the end of this video! Incredible!
Thank you, Buddy. That's very kind of you!
Wish I lived in Seattle, just to see you both perform. Amazing!!!!
Thank you, Bill!
Thanks so much for your kind comments, Bill. Much appreciated!
Well done. One of the best songs ever.
A great cover of the fantastic Jethro Tull.
another great one.. that is a very difficult song to do.. that you took it on and did such a marvelous job. I would like to see you live if you're still performing when this Covid mess is over..
Nailed it, not dead solid perfect but man, nailed it!
EXCELLENT!!!
Wow, that's a pretty good rendition and your voice even sounds very close.
Sossity was always one of my favourites, although uncle Jethro has written some great songs and music over the years. We always thought of him as the family musical genius.
Marcie!
very close congrats
Perfect so excelent song! Paul and Marcie WOW!!!
tolles lied, schwehr zu spielen.Bravi
Benefit is one of my favorite Tull albums , well done I really like it few can play Tull y'all did good.

“Impossible musician to cover”
😆👏Love it!
Muy buena version !!!!! Saludos desde Argentina
Wow! So great!
Brava , lui sembra lan anderson. Complimenti veramente bravo
Pouls voyce are super great/full. He could stand in for Ian who unfortunally have great problems with his voyce. Super cover, more plase !!!
Great job.. guitar, flute and vocals
This is one of my favorite songs from Benefit....you guys do a really admirable job here....have watched a number of your videos...there are a number where you guys are really "on"....some of the best "Tull Tributes" I've seen.
Tull1996 thanks so much for your comment. Much appreciated!
Buen cantante, le llega mucho a la voz de Ian!
Great version!
He sounds just like Ian Anderson who I`ve seen live with Tull. Missed a chance to see him solo- DAMN! Her flute is a little more sanitized than Anderson but she plays perfectly. Plus I think she`s cute.
