      And this song was the hook for 55 years and running. I bought the benefit album when I was 11 and then this album came out and the band exploded on the world stage. We still call him the maestro. As good a front man as you will ever see. So creative and does the lady says it comes from deep in the soul

    Very cool seeing how much you are enjoying this GREAT talent. Ian Anderson is a one of a kind and to think He is STILL making muse even at 75. Never saw a bad show in the 13 or Tulls I have attended. Play more of them, guaranteed winners.

    I grew up in the 60s in a major US metropolitan city. Got to see almost every major rock band of the era ( for $2 or $3 a show). Saw Tull 4 times. BY FAR the most entertaining , accomplished band of musicians I've seen.

    • @GorgeousRoddyChrome
      @GorgeousRoddyChrome Год назад +4

      Indeed!!!
      Interestingly, to me, of the over 600 bands of every rock genre that I saw perform live by 1980 - in theatres, arenas, & outdoor festivals - Tull was definitely the loudest!
      There was a memorable Tull show in an indoor arena where the band "Heads, Hands & Feet" were supposed to open. Before the lights went down, what appeared to be stage hands or instrument technicians sauntered onto stage and began sound checking and tuning. They looked odd, with hats and hair tucked up, and some type of oversize cloaks that made it difficult to tell anything about them.
      Eventually their tuning turned into a very good and somewhat long jam. They finished and the crowd applauded, all with stadium lights still on!
      Simultaneously, as they got up from piano & drum and set down guitars, all with backs to the audience, they pulled off their hats and cloaks, grabbed the instruments, and greeted the audience. It was Tull!
      As the crowd realized what jusr they cheers swelled into a roar! Lights went off and BOOM!... they lauched full force.
      Incredible! Tull played the entire night. THAT was that loudest show I mentioned above.
      Later we learned, from a local article, that "Heads, Hands & Feet" had a day-of-show cancelation, and that this stunt along with a double-length set including an intermission is what the band came up with to make that up to the fans.
      Incredible!
      Loved by many, yet underappreciated in the greater rock universe, Tull was far greater a trailblazer and foundational band than they are credited as.

      @@GorgeousRoddyChrome Dude! They did something just like that at one of their early 70s shows. All the stage hands and techs were in matching white coveralls. After 20 or 30 minutes of setup, there were only 5 roadies left on stage. They whipped off the coveralls, and it was the band!!
      Loudest show I ever saw (and heard ringing for days after) was Ten Years After

      Wow!!!! That show WAS early 70s!!!
      How funny is that?😆🤘
      As you well know, back then info about bands, tours, etc was more scarce than today. The writer of our local article may have heard rumors or just guessed that the "ol' switcheroo" was related to the opening act cancellation?
      Maybe it was something Tull came up with for the entire tour?
      Or maybe the article was correct, and the fake-out was so successful that Tull continued it for other shows?
      Who knows? But I am ecstatic to learn about this from you.🙏

    Favorite band of my youth: I've been following them since I was fourteen in the early 70's. I remember going crazy because I couldn't find long-playing in any store because it was sold out everywhere in my city. This video is fantastic, unique! Happy Holidays from Milan, Italy

    I'm impressed that you've listened to enough Jethro Tull to know how talented Ian is. Now a little quick history for you. Jethro Tull was a minstrel in medieval England. I've never read so, but it's possible he is Ian Anderson's Muse.

      Actually, Jethro Tull patented the mechanicle seed drill in the late 1700s in England.

    I only saw them once during the Passion Play tour. They played for around 3 hours. Totally blown away great showman

    I’ve always loved Jethro Tull, especially the talent of Ian Anderson

    Excellent! You actually noticed that Ian cues the band with those flamboyant hand gestures - it happens too often to be coincidence! Try also ‘Nothing Is Easy’ from this same concert and/or the even more complex ensemble piece ‘Thick As A Brick’ (albeit truncated from the full forty minute plus extravaganza!) from either Madison Square Gardens or Hammersmith.

    He was obsessed with perfection. Refused to allow drugs and alcohol to dilute his art.

    "Channeling his super powers" great way of putting it! Ian, with all his human faults and imperfections, is still, without a doubt, one of the greatest showman/entertainers/artists, of the the last 100 years. It is a "suoerpower" to be this good. He's been blessed and cursed by it. One of the "saving graces" is working with some of the finest musicians of the time

    I was 16 when I first bought “Aqualung” . I’m 64 now and I still play it…… there was just nothing like it, and STILL isn’t ! In my desert island top 5 albums of all time

      Probably in the top 5 of guitar solos. Martin said when he was recording that track to dub in, he looked up and Jimmy Page was standing there watching the whole time.

  • @ronaldelliott4373

    Try the studio recording as it’s one of their greatest achievements still. All the intention of their compositions will be found there. Ian self taught? Yes. Virtuoso? Also yes, and that’s no bs.

    First time I saw Tull in 1975, blew me away. I then saw them at least twice a year until Crest of a Knave tour in NY, Jersey, Connecticut and Florida

    Ian is the smoothest acoustic guitar player around! Saw JT multiple times in the 70’s. Truly one of the best live bands ever! Barrymore Barlow was the drummer, one of my favorite, as a drummer myself.
