Simply genius. No-one has ever written songs as poetic, unusual, and unique as Ian Anderson, and I doubt if anyone will. He is the Mozart of Rock Music.
@@alwilson3204 " I have always referred to Ian and his merry band of misfits as a treasure" . Many live shows from mid 70's to late 80's and then the 50th Anniversary Tour, and beyond. So many extraordinary performances. Minstrel in the gallery, indeed !!
А попробуйте перевести это, например, на русский, чтобы было и поэтично и понятно. Колоссальный труд! Но некоторые песни прямо на века и среди всех языков и народов!!! Великий поэт и музыкант и человек. P.S. За Heel the sky отдельное спасибо! От души!
True minstrels in our time. They had such a wide ranging style, they were so much more than the usual verse, chorus verse band playing songs that went in tiny circles, with everything in 4/4 time. They were unique and had a long history of great musicians coming and going in their lineup. I shall miss them dearly.
This Band has enriched me for almost 50 years as I listened as a child in the early 70's my older brothers playing the band on the old record player.I was hooked for life.
Me too!! I was 13 when I grabbed songs from the wood from my brother...then it was Yes,close to the edge,then houses of the holy I'm so grateful for such j magnificent music..
@@nick666gof7 Barlow didnt play flute. That was a tape ... Ian even joked about it. But Barre does play flute .. that's kind of how they met .. they knew of each other as flute players.
I don’t have words to describe Jethro Tull, to me this band is too too much above the rest of all progressive rock bands and Rock bands , this is the only band can mix and change different styles with perfection and Jack A Lynn is a demonstration of that .
My son and I saw TAAB last year in Milwaukee. The audience showed complete respect and simply enjoyed the show in silence. We were not cretinous, nor were we ignorant.
Since the album Stand Up I knew, Martin also plays the flute. Now I really could see this! As usual through the decades, great performance by Jethro Tull!!
Oh, I love this. Best Tull are these traditionaltype songs like in the album "Songs from the Wood". JT is just the best performing traditional folkrock- type music. Am I right here? Yes I am.
If you aren't already familiar, it might also be worth having a listen to the Sandy Denny era of Fairport Convention (and indeed her own band Fotheringay). Apart from her wonderful songwriting, if there is a more beautiful voice in popular music, I still have not found it! .
All these comments about how great Tull "was" in the past tense. Tull has two beautiful albums in the past 2 years, and another scheded for 2025. Can't wait.
I will not only write about this video, I am going to write about one of the best babdas that gave rock music, I am 55 years old and listening since I was a teenager with iluciones and eager to be me mismo.Soy of Argentina
Jack-A-Lynn...If you saw it..Good for you...It is the best pure Tull song..I wish.It gives you an idea how good the music was...This tune didn't make it on an album
No band was as Jethro Tull, the only band that played many different styles, the best band of all progressive rock bands. This song is really so beautiful, too sophisticated and smart. One of my Jethro Tull favorite songs .
Great combo! Jack-A-Lynn is one of my all-time favorite Tull songs. Getting psyched to see Ian Anderson in concert next month and Martin Barre in December.
I think that Ian Anderson said of his entire group of musical colleaguess he was the only one never drawn into any vice, and for rockers that is usually 100 proof
Front row Seattle Coliseum in 76, Ian was jamming on his flute and looking straight at me and my girlfriend. Thought his eyes were gonna pop outta his head right then and there, they were almost touching us I shit you not. Glad they stayed in his head so he could amaze a few million more couples like he did us that amazing night.
I originally thought the song "Jack-A-Lynn" was a song of longing for his wife Shona, who's middle name is Jacklyn. I then read several other comments from Tull scribes who said he wrote this song about one of his favorite cats..........
I guess I should have been more specific...This great tune had to wait for the 20th anniversary set to be introduced..It wasn't released on Aqualunge,Thick as a Brick,Songs from the Wood,too old for Rock and roll,Crest of a Knave,RockIsland...It wasn't released to the mainstream...It had to wait as junk
Heh heh. You are obviously too young to remember vinyl. Plastic albums could only be about 25 minutes per side. Left out because the album was full. BatB was released pretty much at the divide between the death of the vinyl album and the dominance of CDs. Still, the only thing to miss about the old album was the jacket art, and the all too rare occasion of interior material. If you get a chance you should pick up Thick as a Brick in the vinyl just for the interior stuff.
I heard 7 different other Tull song chords that you never hear used anywhere else in JAL before he even sang. Plagiarizing from himself! One White Duck, Wond'ring aloud, Pussywillow, Nursie, Deadbeat to an Old Greaser, back to wond'ring aloud, geez!
Willie Finn Well it was about his wife, her middle name is Jacqueline, but it's also being away touring, he had made several songs that are about the being away on tour & i guess not seeing he wife & eventually kids...
@frkaz911 Technically...They thew odds and ends that didn't make the cut..I know Jack-A-Lynn from that Box Set...It didn't make Tulls final cut...How is that?..get it the second time?
Much balder now, but no longer particularly skinny! He is over 70, so no surprise. The great voice is long gone, but his flute playing is probably better than ever.
Simply genius. No-one has ever written songs as poetic, unusual, and unique as Ian Anderson, and I doubt if anyone will. He is the Mozart of Rock Music.
I totally agree, cheers.

First Tull album I ever heard, still holds up. Spring of 71
No one moves on the stage like Ian.
Jack A Lynn must qualify as one of the greatest album outtakes ever.
👍👍👍❤❤❤

Quite right. It confirms IA's brilliance that he consistently connected with top-rank supporting players.
This Band has enriched me for almost 50 years as I listened as a child in the early 70's my older brothers playing the band on the old record player.I was hooked for life.

I'm so grateful for such j magnificent music..
Pretty neat that Martin Barre plays flute here. These guys were amazing.
Barrymore Barlow also played the flute.
@@jamestipping5126 remember him standing above his kit in Ian Anderson pose at the finale of a number ... can't remember which one?
@Nik Nic @james tipping
god almighty. Barriemore! this is incredible. if you ever remember which one, please share here
Songs from the wood

This is huge. This band was so tight. Never better than in the 70s, but always great. JT was at the top of their game with this one.
funny growing up in the 70's, I thought things were awful. Much worse now, feel sorry for the kiddos.
I've been in a Jack-A-Lynn mood lately. Love this song. How it builds...
Damn, he’s great on that guitar!
He is a fantastic acoustic guitarist....but doesn't get much credit for it.
He knew he compete with Clapton and others late 60's. Made the right choice
My son and I saw TAAB last year in Milwaukee. The audience showed complete respect and simply enjoyed the show in silence. We were not cretinous, nor were we ignorant.
This is one of the best of Jethro Tull.. Nostalgic!!
C'est très juste ! Un clin d'œil pour David Pegg !
Tull is so ingrained in memories and emotions. Over time that connection does not dim.
A lot like they were the acoustic/woodwind section of rock history.
Seasoned musicians lives are better because of JT musical storytelling.
Since the album Stand Up I knew, Martin also plays the flute. Now I really could see this!
As usual through the decades, great performance by Jethro Tull!!
Ian Andersons poetry & stage performance combined with Martins guitar artistry of & of course the irish flute
They are a journey thru time
Martin Barre is always my favorite guitarist.
Oh, I love this. Best Tull are these traditionaltype songs like in the album "Songs from the Wood". JT is just the best performing traditional folkrock- type music. Am I right here? Yes I am.
You are very right
Those are my favorite Jethro Tull songs by far

Unski Tunkio and traditional R &B, traditional jazz. Right?

Really? That's awesome..
Tull in the form of Ian Anderson knocks another right out of the park... cheerio and thanks...
Jack A Lyn is breathtaking

wowwwwwwww what piece............Beautiful Ian Anderson!!
Ian Anderson is a great, great guitar player
Fantastic song writer
I agree. Possibly the best of the outtakes. A great 90's version on the 25th Anniversary package.
Jack-A-Lynn...If you saw it..Good for you...It is the best pure Tull song..I wish.It gives you an idea how good the music was...This tune didn't make it on an album
Absolutely supreme as fk. No band can ever replace Tull in my lifetime. I am glad that I was born in the time of Ian.
I Agree !!
Me too.
Yes!....and Zeppelin and ELP and Eagles and Joni Mitchell and !!!!!!
Me to, im so glad i got to see them in the 70s, Jack O Lynn is a masterpiece
I wish Ian Anderson/Jethro Tull would tour the states... I'd love to see these guys again. No one puts on a better show!
Un grand monsieur incomparable
Jack-A-Lynn...one of my all-time favourites
Was there ever a band as versatile and fabulous as Tull , name me one ??
Zappa. In 71 I got into Tull and Zappa. To this day that's 95% of what I listen to.
Queen, esp early stuff. Led Zep. Exalted company tho.
The Carpenters?
No band was as Jethro Tull, the only band that played many different styles, the best band of all progressive rock bands. This song is really so beautiful, too sophisticated and smart. One of my Jethro Tull favorite songs .
@@tixximmi1 Geez Get a life !!!
Love this song..first album at 13 songs from the wood,then aqualung..genuis
Great combo! Jack-A-Lynn is one of my all-time favorite Tull songs. Getting psyched to see Ian Anderson in concert next month and Martin Barre in December.
I do love this song as my name is jacqueline last name anderson! I have loved ian anderson for years. such a huge talent, and dam good looking.
Your a Special Girl , Jacqueline Anderson !!!!!
I was thinking the same thing, he has a beautiful physique!
I watched this concert in Istanbul ....They played four concerts in Istanbul 1991
I think that Ian Anderson said of his entire group of musical colleaguess he was the only one never drawn into any vice, and for rockers that is usually 100 proof
Ian smoked and Zappa didn't do drugs.
Front row Seattle Coliseum in 76, Ian was jamming on his flute and looking straight at me and my girlfriend. Thought his eyes were gonna pop outta his head right then and there, they were almost touching us I shit you not. Glad they stayed in his head so he could amaze a few million more couples like he did us that amazing night.
Wow so beautiful.
So many memories ❤️
The Coolest guy ever lived
❤❤❤👍👍👍 Great Song, Thank you.
...the lead guitar sound at 4:57 and beyond ,wow !!!
Beautiful
Sometimes it's one becomes balder one becomes better!
Magical
Muy bien felicidades lo mejor de lo mejor jetroo tull

Reminds me of Hugh Lowry. Beyond talent.
Great ...
Two timeless J.T. classic
Master of the bridge

Cheers guys, you'll go far. :-)))
Most of Ian Anderson songs got 0 dislikes. that seems so fair..
Who says that he can`t play a guitar?! But not many play the flute..
Gracias kosto veninga por subir el video!! (Y)
Martin is crazy insane tallented
Lord Barre, steady as always
I guess I should have been more specific...This great tune had to wait for the 20th anniversary set to be introduced..It wasn't released on Aqualunge,Thick as a Brick,Songs from the Wood,too old for Rock and roll,Crest of a Knave,RockIsland...It wasn't released to the mainstream...It had to wait as junk
nice
Grat song Jack A LyNN Great son mother fuckers Jehro TuLL Rules in may mind
hi surely his best Jacqueline broadsword and Minstrel Aqualung
Ian: The One.

Barrymore Barlow an excellent guitarist and also a flutist 👏👏
i have a feeling you meant to say Martin Barre
@@JabrHawr esp since BB is a drummer, and here drumming is doane perry. its ok tho
@mtoesperto when you play like he does sometimes attitude fits the bill
Это самое лучше,что я слышал.,
well said!
WTF is wrong with the rock and roll hall of fame? Why aren't they in it?
Who really cares? The RARHOF is merely a corporate joke.
Yep and NWA is... SMH.
The Mothers Of Invention !
Zappa and Tull since 71. Love them both.
Is there any live version of Mother Goose back from when Ian still had his voice? I can't find one on RUclips.
I heard 7 different other Tull song chords that you never hear used anywhere else in JAL before he even sang. Plagiarizing from himself! One White Duck, Wond'ring aloud, Pussywillow, Nursie, Deadbeat to an Old Greaser, back to wond'ring aloud, geez!
Dave Pegg is channeling Rick Nielsen...
Rich Rolwing Nielsen for the win!
loved the intro into the opening chord progression. I cannot find tabs for it anywhere :(
Maartin Allcock, Andy Giddings joined later that same year
Come again?
Fucking amazing
What the hell are you wearing Ian?
jack a lynn contains great playing and a heavy metal ending. but what or who was jack a lynn? mother goose was always great....typical tull.
His cat
Jack-A-Lynn is inspired by Ian's wife. Her middle name is Jacqueline.
Willie Finn Well it was about his wife, her middle name is Jacqueline, but it's also being away touring, he had made several songs that are about the being away on tour & i guess not seeing he wife & eventually kids...
13 dislikes??? Warning, Neanderthal men are coming!
5:05 IA Signature Move
Lack of space on vinyl?
@frkaz911 Technically...They thew odds and ends that didn't make the cut..I know Jack-A-Lynn from that Box Set...It didn't make Tulls final cut...How is that?..get it the second time?
Lord of the bard..Black lives matter..
Very good to hear Jack-A-Lynn live! Anyone know if it's Maartin Allcock or Andy Giddings on keyboards? Think it looks like Maartin?
It's Maartin Allcock on keyboards.
Could it be Don Airey? I thought Allcock only did the Rock Island tour...?
Barre on fruit , haha some band
is he pissed off or something? he looks like...u know...doesnt look like him,doesnt look crazy at all
Ian's looking skinny and bald, yes?
V. Stan Leisenring It can happen as you get older!!!!!
I wish! lol (On the skinnier part)!
He looks pretty muscular to me
V. Stan Leisenring I think he’s gorgeous!
Much balder now, but no longer particularly skinny! He is over 70, so no surprise. The great voice is long gone, but his flute playing is probably better than ever.
Very poor recording
Such a great song, but the band seems bored.
Guitar fingering in better celtic style.
Guess this was his no flute playing period
thisistheworldtoday. I was thinking that live he cannot play and sing at the same time, like in recording it is a simple process.
