Play nicely and burn the candles

A couple of trainspotting items of marginal interest, probably not warranting their separate posts.

In a recent interview, Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull talked about guitarists who played “nicely” – Hank Marvin, Eric Clapton, Peter Green, Ritchie Blackmore — “Precise, accurate, they sang melodies.” This bit starts at 3’20” and wraps up at 5’40” into the conversation.

On other news, Japanese manufacturer of bathroom fixtures Kakudai has released their 2025-2026 catalogue with a cover art that is a remake of the Burn artwork.

It is not the first time this company uses a classic album cover as inspiration for their catalogues.

Thanks to Nigel Young on both counts.
