Is there a fully acoustic version of this song that Tull and / or Ian have done? ie, no electric guitar or drums. I see fully acoustic covers everywhere on RUclips, but none by the band themselves.
Remember when this came out. Off the success of Aqualung this was a worthy successor and rocked hard. Haven't heard it in over 30 years and I AM LOVING IT.
I talked to him in person for 5 minutes backstage of the Carefree theater in West Palm Beach Florida one on one. I was definitely in awe. Wisdom flows from his presence.
@willcate Hi my man. I'm 50 and saw JT once only in Portugal, but quite a few times abroad. It's my favourite band! Have lots of written stuff about them and know a lot about them. They're just great
Jethro Tull,Queen,Fleetwood Mac,Roll'n Stones,Grateful Dead,Lenord Synard,Pure Praire Leauge,& many more,oh the 70'S what a time,great music,great bands,& life was a slower pace.
i`m 55 and just saw the band here 2 weeks ago,his voice is pretty well gone but i understand after all the years but it was still one the best Tull concert i`ve seen.Martin is so underated as a guitar player,he`s a genius!
Likewise -- I'm fifty going on 51... Turned on to Tull when I was about 12. Have seen them twice, and both times it was superb. Love all of their 70's era stuff. Nice story, birdfriend02 ... God bless.
If I had an andersonian beard I'd eat it in small bits punishing myself for ignoring the most imaginative and magic band in 20/21 centuries... as far as now... well, at least my 3 children listen to them with their iPods evoking sensation at school, so my life is not lost yet... please God, let them live and play maaany years more!
@plepeiltis Absolutely... Definitely one of rocks Classic albums.... what bothers me is how fans who claim to be into Jethro Tull can only relate to Aqualung or Thick As A Brick after that they have know knowledge of their other great music & I think it's a shame....... Minstrel In The Gallery is great as is Heavy Horses & Songs From The Wood etc...
@shampoovta I have to say something here... Are you a real Jethro Tull fan? Seriously... I'm with you here I agree this albom kicks ass it surely does... but how in the world can you say your a Jethro Tull fan & say that you were not into Aqualung? Aqualung is an absolute masterpiece of an album it is up there in the ranks of Rocks all time CLASSIC albums & you were into it! I'm a bit confused man... but hey you like what you like I guess!
@willicat441 Very nice wiilcat. Nowadays what "offends" is the lack of talent out there...My son is learning 3 instruments at 13, and has goals to be a multi-instrumentalist educational band leader. *crosses fingers*

@gumborific I agree. I played Wind Up at an 8th grade graduation dance in my first garage band. The soft piano intro, I changed the words to "I don't believe you, you've got the whole DARN thing all wrong"..... as I didn't want to offend the chaparones with "Damn!'
I've listen this band since I born and... God... I love them. I'm 24 and this band is a great part of my childhood! My father was a great music master! XD
@shampoovta Aqualung is an album with fabulous characterizations of the human condition. Ian's 1st wife co-wrote the first few lines of the title song which I always found interesting. It is more of a rock and roll sound than their folkier stuff. Some of the work that really cemented Barre as a top rock guitarist. I just can't deny Wind Up as one of the best last songs on any album ever. But I listen to it less than the other albums...maybe I should get back into it again.
❤
This song is extraordinary, and also the other beautiful "Moths" and the powerful "Orion"
Is there a fully acoustic version of this song that Tull and / or Ian have done? ie, no electric guitar or drums. I see fully acoustic covers everywhere on RUclips, but none by the band themselves.
How incredible that so much talent can fit in 4 minutes and 9 seconds
I was born in 2450 this was an instant classic back in 2387
Always wondered why they didnt do this live, hell the song was pretty much recorded live at the mobile studio
Remember when this came out. Off the success of Aqualung this was a worthy successor and rocked hard. Haven't heard it in over 30 years and I AM LOVING IT.
never got the popularity they deserved...bono...ffs...shit
Nice "video"...wasted my time.
Miaow! I'd like to make friends with the armadillo in THOSE trousers.
Most Awesome Vid!!!!!! Grate Pics!!!!!!!!!! Would Love To Hearer Ian And The Boys Play This Live!!!!!!!!!!!
Most amazing and interesting voice. Great lyrics and melodies....
Love the shots of the late great Mark Craney. You should get them on his memorial web site.
Fuck me, what happened to Mark
Jethro Tull is so great. I saw Ian Anderson and his gang in 1978 at MSG in NYC.
I talked to him in person for 5 minutes backstage of the Carefree theater in West Palm Beach Florida one on one. I was definitely in awe. Wisdom flows from his presence.
I'm 32 and I love Tull! "Minstrel in the Gallery" is my fav Tull album. Nice combination of Ian's acoustic songwriting and his prog ambitions.
grasp ye thy sword from off yon wall, mount thy steed and lift thy voice with ours in triumphant song, brother, for RAGNAROK IS UPON US!!
Minstrel in the gallery is an amazing album and they sound amazing in this one. JT are amazing.

Jethro Tull,Queen,Fleetwood Mac,Roll'n Stones,Grateful Dead,Lenord Synard,Pure Praire Leauge,& many more,oh the 70'S what a time,great music,great bands,& life was a slower pace.

been a huge fan for 20 years. thanks to my old friend Brian Wilson for introducing me to Jethro Tull. Ian Anderson is a genious!
yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
@shampoovta They certainlyh do have a varied sound..but that is what makes them what they are. Tom Loughlin Jr Utica NY

I'm 55, and have been a Tull fan since I was 15...Best live performances I've ever been at..
Ive been a Fan since i was 12 And always will be Love Tull
LOL... I have been listening to Tull since I am 20 (I will be 62 in January)..
This would have been so funny on the new "Thor" movie soundtrack.
@birdfriend02 I'm 63 and still love them. Also Fairport Convention - who's bass player Dave Pegge played with Tull in mid-70s
I've listen this band since I born and... God... I love them. I'm 24 and this band is a great part of my childhood! My father was a great music master! XD

You are SO Right On, Snailbarf! Botticelli. YES!
