I've listened to Tull through the 70s 80s 90s 00s 10s 20s ... as long as he is out there or selling albums. RocFlote was one of the best Tull albums - about the 3rd album where I can listen through the whole album and not want to skip a single track ... like Under Wraps, TAAB and probably others if I could think of them.
IA was THE greatest frontman I’ve ever seen, brilliant musician, composer and leader of my all time favourite band of all time. The operative word is “was” and, for me, Tull isn’t Tull without Martin Barre, another brilliant musician. Hurts me to say it but it’s time to call it a day.
Thank God it is not up to you ... RocFlote is one of the best Tull albums, and he could not keep doing low-profit albums if he did not tour, or keep the band employed.
@johndortsch6494 0 seconds ago C'mon man. The guy's almost 80 years old. I saw TULL for the first time in the early 70s (Thick as a Brick). He was amazing then, and it's still amazing to see a legend perform. If you want to see someone perform with voice enhancement software, go see the Doobie Brothers. They sound 'perfect'. Ian Anderson is going to be who he is. Thank you for posting this. I love it!
Look, Ian wrecked his voice in 1980. Yes, he could've rigged up some voice thing, or hired a singer and just played flute and guitar. And yes, he is almost 80. But people do want to hear Ian's voice and flute. Still, this was a bit disappointing.
1974 “My that was a wonderful audition. And starting Monday you will be our lead vocalist. Congratulations!” I doubt it. It’s hard to get old and pass up things you used do well. But age. Then death. 100% true of all of us
Why do the old gems in so different form and tempo when there exist new, fresh and good song where the band and Ian can show what they can do. I'm a true Tull fan.
The new material might not bring in the crowds. I first saw Tull in '72 as a schoolboy. Fave band of all time, but I won't see him torture these songs anymore. Such a shame.
@@stevejones1921 I agree. I've seen Tull many times and the top band set was in the 70s. It's a pity that I always compare Tull and other bands with Tull of the 70s.
It breaks my heart to say it, Jon, please stop, you have done a wonderful job. keep playing the flute. I saw like this in Santa Rosa, CA in 2016 and it was till a tad better but you do no one a favor, the least to yourself, we love you and JT
This venues sound/acoustics seemed to work against the band.I’ve seen many other performances that were easier.I still think he did an amazing job.Heck we all would love to be doing the same as we age.
Voice needs to be forwarded more prominently in the production, while backed by the instrumentation. I cannot clearly 'hear' the power of the voice delivery. Interesting wrap up.
I wish Ian would stop touring. He just can’t do these great songs Justice any longer . It’s downright painful to listen ……. By all means continue to make albums - he can still write and play the flute! What is it with these guys who just can’t call it a day -after living a fairy tale life! Ian 77 , McCartney 82 , Jagger 81 , Richards 81, Ringo 84, Dylan 83, Waters 80, Steve Howe and his tribute YES 77……. Is it the adulation they can’t live without ( certainly not the money)? When do they look in the mirror and say- job well done, fantastic run, but …………..
Supply and Demand. As long there is the passion and love to perform, they'll do it. (Of course money plays a part too). Quite a few still go out there and perform for the same reasons.
The band is not good is very bad this is not Jethro Tull just Ian Anderson and background members . Do you realize that in each presentation they play the same song ,locomotive breath , that’s because Ian Anderson and friends are not able to play Most of Jethro Tull songs due lack of qualities of members and Ian . Currently Ian can not sing and can not play acoustic guitar . His obstinacy continue, he has to understand , it is over .
@@paolo60333 No Jethro Tull was the best Prog Rock band until 2003 when they released The Christmas Album. Then Ian Anderson destroyed the band by firing old members as M Barre D Perry A Giddings and J Noyce . Then he formed a band with friends without the abilities to be member of JT . Besides that Anderson has lost all his abilities except the flute .

Having seen Jethro Tull all through the '70s and '80s, it's just so hard to watch this!!

My favorite band 🎉🎉💯💯🍺👍
Me too ... by a lightyear
Not bad for a 77 year old. Everything that';s gone before has been so wonderful I think he's beyond criticising.
Still having a go. Wonderful.

He probably needs the cash he has a big estate to keep going

Thanks for posting.
Locomotive Death. It was on it's last legs when I heard Jethro Tull play it live in 77.
Martin Barre blows this Mimic Away..Tone and Attack.. Holiday Inn Performance..Ian living in the Past is Sad
¡Qué buenos momentos les debo a estos tipos! ¡Gracias por siempre!
Brutal.
Please give up , you was the best but sadly when it’s time it’s time
Tull is one of the best. Enjoyed it very much.
There's no Tull without Martin. But it's still good to see the spirit live on !!!

This is actually damn good!
Why O Why does he still go out and try to sing these songs?
its Ian Anderson...not Jethro Tull

David Starkey on bass, back from cancellation!
Todavia en la brecha que grandes .
Ich liebe die Band - 9 x gesehen nach der Wende! - Einfach phantastisch. Many Fans in der ehem. GDR.

Grande Ian. Sempre in forma splendida.
Brutal

My favourite tull member, John
Really?
martin Barre is back?
I blame the dreadful recording ,it was a disgrace.
widać niewiele się zmieniło - szkoda że jakoś nagrania słaba trochę
It’s a Jethro Tull cover band. And not very good either.
This venues sound/acoustics seemed to work against the band.I’ve seen many other performances that were easier.I still think he did an amazing job.Heck we all would love to be doing the same as we age.
The sound is awful.

Not nearly as good as he used to be to be . Martin Barre’s shows actually sound more like the classic Tull .
recording sucks he might not be that bad he still has the balls to perform
Damn the band really sucks ass. Miss Tull.
Voice is terrible
Give up Ian. Please...
But only live singing, the albums are still fantastic.
@@NuntiusLegis yep I agree....
Hey man let him play.

The band is good or even very good but Ian...what a disaster!
I imagine 50 years ago if someone auditioned before him singing like this he would have to old from bursting out laughing

@@javierllerena5756 Yes, ok. Never liked JT after their early records. After Aqualung true JT experience was over forever
I last saw Tull in 1970. Great shows back then.

i always wonder why this keyboard player always destroys the legendary John Evan Locomotive breath solo..its such a pain to watch..
John O'Hara is a thoroughly decent guy but he is a session players he unjustly occupies the seat of John Evan who was the manic madrigal magician
No Martin barre
It has been 13 years
@martinjude66 it wasn't the choice of Martin or Doane. This isn't Jethro Tull.
@@chrisgale5634 Tull was dead with Barre. An entire decade without new album. He got replaced, four great new albums, next one in the making.
