Pin Me! As one of the originals that was privileged enough to be in that crowd on that day, I must say I had a superb time, I was 19 & this was the way I wanted to be. Welcome to my world.
You truly witnessed magic then lol I've seen Jethro Tull 2 times in my life, I'm 32 now and both times were brilliant but I can only imagine the time you had back then in Tulls prime with this line up. God bless you sir. 🤝🏴
Their performance of "My God" from this concert was a good example of Ian Anderson's vocalizing through his flute during his solo, while standing on one leg.
Been waiting for you to review this. The 'This Was' version is a lot shorter and if I recall correctly was just an instrumental; another live version like this one is on the 'Living in the Past' album.
I saw Jethro Tull in concert in late 1969- just a few months before this performance. They were a new band at the time and I didn’t know who they were. Mind blowing,
@@docnflossie7351 at least the past is still on video for us to enjoy, you have lots to go at, sensational Alex Harvey band,Camel, Cactus, Frank Marino, Ozric Tentacles Gong, it Bites, ❤️❤️❤️
Strange that Ian didn't play flute on this at the Isle of Wight.. A later Carnegie Hall concert has Ian on flute for Dharma for One and it's superb. It's on the Living In The Past album and was also released in other formats e.g. the whole Carnegie Hall concert on vinyl and on CD in the "Elevated Edition" of Stand Up.
This was Tull's best lineup in my opinion. Clive Bunker on drums, Glenn Cornick on bass and of course, the great Martin Barre. On the original album track, the guitarist was Mick Abraham (sometimes singer/blues guitarist) from 1968's "This Was".
Hairbrush - you mean to tell me that people were able to stop watching this? Tabarnak, I couldn't look away, Clive is a monster! Great choice, and terrific reaction as always, much love from Canada!
BTW that video is great, but I think that the live performance on Living in the Past is even better. Now it’s time to listen to Glenn’s bass solo on Bourrée from Stand Up
My favorite Tull album is actually the compilation double album "Living in the Past (1972)" which has many of my favorite Tull songs on it along with a "live side" that included the Carnegie Hall version of this song.
I read that years before this, they were so bad that every time they played, they changed their name in order to get booked again under the new name. At some point while they were being Jethro Tull they got called back for a second gig and that was the longest streak they had and it's continued to this day
Lee. FYI the band took their name from an 18th century agriculturalist farmer who invented the horse drawn seed drill and plow. Just thought you might be interested.
I'd never heard this tune, so like, thanks, man. "My God" is another gear that Tull goes to in some cases. "Songs From the Wood" is the mistrel Tull; just another one of their wheelhouses.
I saw Tull a few times in concert back in the 70's but l just saw Martin Barre not that long ago at a small theater in LA. He played the Aqualung album in its entirety and ended with an encore of "Teacher ", my favorite Tull song , really great concert 💖🎶
There is another live version of this song, on the “Living In the Past” compilation. That album is a compilation of the JT singles from the period up to “Thick as a Brick,” most of which are not album cuts, but true single releases, or b-sides to the album cuts. Well worth your time to listen to not only the version of “Dharma,” but the rest of the album. Essential Tull.
The Doors also played at this Concert at the Isle of Wight in 1970. One of their last performances. The three greatest Rock Music Festivals were "Monterey Pop" in 1968, "Woodstock" in 1969 and "Isle of Wight" in 1970.
Hi Bob, it wasn't until last year that I ever heard of this one which took place right before Woodstock. I've asked other rock music enthusiasts, and they had no idea either. I know it wasn't quite as big but any clue why it appears to have been so far under the radar? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_City_Pop_Festival

Ian sang it all. He mentioned Martin doing vocals, in the playful deprecating way he would often speak of Martin while in concert. If I’m not mistaken, the codpiece is a year, or so, away. The lighting worked quite nicely with the lower Frazetta, and the McCartney Lyrics.
When you see John Evan cross over to Martin's side, they together vocalized " Dharma, Darma , Dharma" in the background while Glen Cornick was jamming..
@@yes_head L33 is a drummer. Danny Carey is a drummer. Danny & L33 are both interested in progressive drumming. Rick is good at interviewing quality musicians. Danny shares techniques and influences.L33 is interested in learning more about music. Dannyand Rick are interested in sharing musical knowledge. So… if you can’t make that connection, I can’t help you.
Clive Bunker and John Bonham were friends and would have contests to see who could do the longest solo. Bunker said this performance was 'embarassingly' long. lol
Loads of enthusiasm in your reaction. And how often can one hear the word scrying as part of a reaction? Did Clive perform for the people? or was he showing off? Maybe a bit of both? Keep Reacting!
I know, I'm even surprised I dropped that one in there! But it fit lol. I am fantasy nut so you might hear all kinds of weird words here 😂 thank you for watching my friend!
Ian may have had an anti-hippie issue, but with Tull's look and the type of performances they were doing back then, I think their legend would have been at a different level to this day if they had done Woodstock.
Hairbrush. Yes I think this is fantastic. There's another live version on the " Living in the Past" album. I love their first album too. More blush but still great. From the first through "Broadsword and the Beast" Tull NEVER disappointed! Pure entertainment on steroids. Enjoy!
Very good drummer BUT. Barry Barlow was THE BOMB!!!!!!! The Great Led Zeppelin drummer JB said " Jethro Tull's Drummer. is hands down the best drummer in Rock music, don't listen to the drum solo's he said, they all kinda sound the same as we rock drummer ran out of idea's and just try to play fast - listen to the songs on the albums and when they play live to see and hear who put's in the best melodic drum playing the sound and how the drums relate to the song and make it better, when you do that Barry is so fucking great!!! I agree, the drummers from Rush and ELP are so great. but Barry play drums like a guitar player plays melodies

And this is what your grandparents were up to. Pretty mind-blowing.
I was lucky to see Clive guest at a Martin Barre concert just a few years ago. He's still a great drummer.
Clive Bunker is so underrated.
He's a Fantastic drummer!
"Nothing is Easy" is another excellent Tull track from this live show in 1970. Great guitar solo.
Their performance of "My God" from this concert was a good example of Ian Anderson's vocalizing through his flute during his solo, while standing on one leg.
one of the greatest live performances of all time!
The Witches Promise was also an excellent live track from this concert. Has to be seen to be believed!
In case you missed it, Lee reacted to My God a few months ago.
Yep, l was there and remember Tull's set vividly my bruvvah. Sweet memory. Thanks

Clive also played with Steve Hillage in 77/78 also saw him with Hillage a couple of times
Had a drink with Clive 2005
I’m envious. Steve is on the list of heroes I never got to see live.
My loss.❤

ive gotta go with glascock and barriemore Barlow for me but both great
These guys are tight even back in '68 they were tight. They stop and start and change directions on a single beat

Clive Bunker is one of the most overlooked drummer in rock history. A really fantastic drummer!
BTW that video is great, but I think that the live performance on Living in the Past is even better. Now it’s time to listen to Glenn’s bass solo on Bourrée from Stand Up
God I remember when I looked like the audience . Happy days!!!

What a brilliant piece of music! That drum solo! I agree with your comment "Moby Dick..." Too right!
I love early Tull.
And what a concert! So many British greats! Should be called THE Prog Rock Concert.
Earnrdt that award as Best Heavy Metal Band....this is the moment...😝
I remember driving my mom's 68 Chrysler 300 to buy my 1st Jethro album Stand Up. (I still have that cd in my Subaru.)
This was Hendrix’s last concert before he tragically died. RIP
Lee, like the T-shirt. My first concert 1971, Forum in LA, Jethro Tull! Stand Up and Benifit, just amazing.
I read that years before this, they were so bad that every time they played, they changed their name in order to get booked again under the new name.
At some point while they were being Jethro Tull they got called back for a second gig and that was the longest streak they had and it's continued to this day
Clive has always been a beautifully fluid drummer, a large element of jazz in his playing but always tasteful and always appropriate to the music.

A fun performance…
🙂a neat solo that fit and wasn’t boring!
The Moody Blues played at this, too.
The music festivals of '69 and '70 really helped launch so many bands. The Isle of Wight especially. It was a short lived festival unfortunately.
Woshhh ! We was fortunate to grow In that era have All this Wondefull music !!
I saw Tull a few times in concert back in the 70's but l just saw Martin Barre not that long ago at a small theater in LA. He played the Aqualung album in its entirety and ended with an encore of "Teacher ", my favorite Tull song , really great concert 💖🎶

Well worth your time to listen to not only the version of “Dharma,” but the rest of the album. Essential Tull.
I believe the Dharma of the title is Ritchie Dharma, who was a drummer who later played with Mick Abrahams, the original Tull guitarist before Barre.
A little known fact is that before Mick Abrahams, Ritchie Dharma also played with Ian Anderson, John Evan and Glenn Cornick in The John Evan Band.

@@nyrocks5580 Wight is an island off the U.K. Harder to access, I'd imagine.
I love how the rest of the band goes off for a piss and/or a smoke!
The Who at the Isle of Wight! Waaaat are we waiting for? The Who at the Isle of Wight is legend, killer stuff.
Great energy .

Rick Beato has a new interview with Tool’s drummer Danny Carey. Pretty awesome.
Which has what to do with this?

This is the Tull I feel in love with back in the day (yes, I’m old). There is another live version on the Living InThe Past album.
This is hard-core Tull! I love the energy and passion they put in their music
Ian Anderson appeared (to me) to be clad in a one-piece "union suit" long underwear under an open bathrobe tied in front.
Listen to the live version of this song on the 'Living in the Past' album, the whole song is a lot more cohesive.
It was Jimi's last festival too.
Love it.
Clive Bunker and John Bonham were friends and would have contests to see who could do the longest solo. Bunker said this performance was 'embarassingly' long. lol
Is the Best versión in the Carnegie Hall but i liked me to.

Ian Anderson is the singer. He also plays the flute and some-time guitar.
I am very aware of that lol I've done like 5 albums of theres lol
I'm sorry, Lee. No offense. I love your channel.@@L33Reacts
Ian may have had an anti-hippie issue, but with Tull's look and the type of performances they were doing back then, I think their legend would have been at a different level to this day if they had done Woodstock.

Have you heard The Impossible Drum Solo by Buddy Rich yet?
The drummer just takes over! He could use a hair brush, though.
John Bonham recognized Clive Bunker as thee greatest drummer, he ever heard. Go figure
It’s not a codpiece it’s a packet of fishfingers

Well put,..I always considered Barrie as one of the tastiest as far as versatility and creativeness,...so appropriate for Ian And Tull.
Gosh, Clive threw in everything but the kitchen hairbrush.
"I don't know who's singing".....Look it up! Very unimpressive.
The Best versión in live is in the Carnegie Hall in My opinión.
