I've been a drummer for over 50 years now, and I'm Still amazed by Clive Bunker and others like him. There is no amount of practice in the world to play like these guys. The only thing you can do is find your Own style and perfect that.
🎼Piano is a percussion instrument, so bob away, Lee! I saw Tull in November 1970 at the Ohio Theater in Columbus, Ohio. Awesome… seriously awesome. Yeah, I was 17 years old. There will never be another group like Jethro Tull. Thank you for playing the memories.🎼☮️
I saw them do this "Kind Permission" live and the showmanship was excellent to say the least. They then went on to do some songs from Aqua Lung album and then into Thick As a Brick" ending with a few more songs from Aqua Lung. Quite the show! Always top shelf show.
Great reaction. I go back and forth as to who's a better drummer, Clive or Barrie, and I think I decided Barrie, but then I listen to this again and I remember how much I love Clive!
Congrats dude! 👏💪🎉 Not a big fan of the first one either but Dharma is pretty wild! And you've still got the BEST ones left! Prepare for some truly great Tull next time! 🫶
I don't get how such a phenomenal and unique band with their mind-blowingly varied repertoire (and which sold a very significant number of records back in the day) could also somehow be under the radar for so many music fans? And don't get me started on the ridiculous Rock and Roll Hall of Fame situation.
I want to 2 thumbs up this one. This IS the definitive version of Dharma for One! Too bad you can't see them during By Kind Permision of. The back and forth is fun to watch.
Ladies and Gentlemen the incomparable Jethro Tull!! Loving L33’s journey down the rabbit hole. If he makes it to the bottom he’ll definitely bump into me down there looking for the Hare who lost his Spectacles…
Classical Tull (pun intended); You're right about 'By Kind Permission' being like Bouree - it is also inspired by a classical piece although unfortunately I cannot remember the composer or the piece.
This was a VERY IMPORTANT LESSON today, my friend, to get a glimpse of what Jethro Tull really is. Try to avoid unnecessary comparisons with others. Just listen to Jethro Tull ... 🙏🏻 P.S.: When are we taking on TOTRRTYTD? 🍿😉
Overall, this is a real interesting collection. It combines some UK only singles, a pair of live tracks, a few unreleased gems, remixes of a few tracks and throws in the US only version of Teacher. A great album that almost shouldn't be a great album. Let me just say the remixed "Song for Jeffrey" is far better than the one that appears on This Was. "By Kind Permission Of" appeared in the middle of their set, but was edited here appear if it was the opener. See the Benefit album box set that has 2 concerts from this era and By Kind Permission... is not the opener.
They did a little cheat to make the album side feel like a mini-concert. The band's stage intro was stitched onto the front of Ian's intro to "With You There To Help Me" (evidently the 3rd song that night) which then cut out the song and jumped to John's piano solo. So it wasn't the opener that night, but John probably did play up the classical pastiche because of the venue. Funny that you referenced the old joke in your comments over Clive's solo... how do you get to Carnegie Hall? "Practice."
Didn't tune in 'till 9:15 or so and much to my surprise was a snippet of Beethoven's Pathetique Sonata No. 8 in C minor, Opus 13. Along with the Beatles, Beethoven is right there at the top of my list. Don't really think too much of the rest of these two. A lot of good techniques signifying very little. But to each his own.
Surely this band will be played and enjoyed by our children's children's children
@@pmoran7971
Sounds like a plug for the Moody Blues!
@@chrisjenkins6120 Indeed.
Definitely, and stop calling me Shirley.😉
Dont't call me Shirley
If the overlords allow
I have always considered that the Glen Cornick / Cive Bunker combination is one of the best in rock history
I agree… they are a force of nature together!!
Two AWESOME tracks! Thanks Cora for sponsoring this album and thanks L33 for bringing us to enjoy it. Blown away by how good this is! ☮️❤️🎶

Congratulations Lee. Keep going not just for yourself but for the family as well.

I have been waiting for you to react to Dharma for One. I agree with you. Clive Bunker is an amazing percussionist.
Great reaction. I go back and forth as to who's a better drummer, Clive or Barrie, and I think I decided Barrie, but then I listen to this again and I remember how much I love Clive!
Precipitous fun!! The joy of music!! I 🖖🏼😉🎶❤️🍁❤️✨️🕊
The ultimate John Evan is the entirety of "Thick As A Brick"...just focus on the various keyboards all the way through.
Or the bass
Totally agree, and he is also very prominent on Passion Play and Warchild. Great keyboardist who created atmosphere with his playing.
Congrats dude! 👏💪🎉
Not a big fan of the first one either but Dharma is pretty wild!
And you've still got the BEST ones left! Prepare for some truly great Tull next time! 🫶
The drum solo is insane!
What a flippin' versatile band of artists. Makes me want to reinvest in a turntable and vinyl
Super Performance!! What more to expect from one of the best Live bands! Bravo Jethro Tull ❤

John Evan never got enough recognition for his talent. The same goes for Glen Cornick / Clive Bunker and how well they played off of each other.
Wow ... a couple of blow you away solos. Now you'll know why Tull concert goers would yell 'Who ya who ya" lol
One of the best bands of all time! Thanks, Lee

Dharma for 1, brilliant real rock epic.
Love Tull Tuesdays. Great choices, Cora and Ford. Keep up the good work, Lee. Blessings all.

Ian was reading Jack Kerouac when he wrote Dharma for One.
You will be surprised by Tull on the Rock N Roll Circus - it's the only filmed example with Tony Iommi on lead guitar!!
Nice jacket!
Brilliant 🎉
"By kind permission of" - John actually uses some parts of well-known classical compositions here but I´ve forgotten which exactly.
More early live Tull, see "Live at the Isle of Wight 1970" the DVD or...? Includes early version of 'My God'- it's different.
@@barrysimmons1210 He's got the video, and now that he's heard all the tunes he can watch it :)
Wond'ring Again and Life's a Long Song are definite musts if you aren't doing the whole side.
John's piano gags were inspired by Victor Borge, much like Rick Wakeman's of the same period (as heard on 'Yessongs').
Classical Tull (pun intended); You're right about 'By Kind Permission' being like Bouree - it is also inspired by a classical piece although unfortunately I cannot remember the composer or the piece.
Clive Bunker made one of the best drum solos of that era...It was the best period of JT.
Yes and also check out Jon Hiseman Time Machine
@@jimhardiman3836 You are right. One of the best i ever heard and i worked 35 years in radio station...thanks !
Hello, folks ... 👋🏻

P.S.: When are we taking on TOTRRTYTD? 🍿😉
Coming up shortly, next album I think.

Always interesting to hear, but not my cup of tea. The Tull I’ve really liked a lot is the song Living In The Past.
Just an idea, did you already react to CCR?
