For those of us fortunate enough to have seen Tull on the "Too Old to Rock n Roll" US tour, Bach's Double Violin Concerto was Martin's solo piece at the beginning of the encore. This 1985 arrangement is very cool, but there was nothing like hearing Martin take the stage alone and tear up this piece with distorted guitar at high volume! There is a recording from that tour on youtube called, "Jethro Tull: A Sackful of Trousersnakes". Check it out, Martin's solo begins at the 2:14:33 mark...and play it loud!
Used to have a white Barcus Berry electric violin just like this one in the video. Eddie Jobson is phenomenonal on both keywords and violin. Legendary in fact.
I have been a Jethro Tull fan since I was 12 years old. I heard them do re-arrangements of Bach before (Bouree in Em), but never heard this one. This is bad ass!
Whoa, where'd this come from? Eddie Jobson compliments Tull music so well. I guess we just have the A album and this? I do have memories of a great concert in 1980 or so.
There's a whole live show on DVD with Eddie and Mark Craney in Tull, it's great. It's on the bonus disc of the remastered A album. th-cam.com/video/A0KD4ZQjkG4/w-d-xo.html
I remember Eddie in UK warming up for Tull during the storm watch tour. Eddie was awesome in UK obviously Ian was listening some nights and recruited him after the breakup of UK . Listen to their stuff to hear Jonson at his finest
I dreamed I went to Bach's grave and dug him up. I found him erasing sheet music as fast as he could. I asked him,what are you doing,Sir? He replied,"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm decomposing!"😂😂
Jobson was the best musician to join the band. It's a shame it was only for a year, but someone as talented as Jobson probably doesn't respond well to Ian's "Micromanaging".
Eddie Jobson, uno de los músicos más subvalorados del rock progresivo. Genio de los teclados y el violín. Roxy Music; King Crimson (álbum U.S.A.); U. K.; Jethro Tull...Un currículum majestuoso.
Benefit was my first J.Tull LP and bought it for the band title not ever hearing this band at all . Not a mistake that most people thought Jethro was really Ian A. Real name not the title of a band, so funny but so cool finding this new band in young days to play at home on my new stereo after landing a job at gm . LoL~~~
Love the sus4 chords on the keys starting @ 5:27 Great stuff always loved Tull and Jobson on the keys and violin was the icing on the cake (pun intended)
Yes? I'm still here. This video is still awesome. I see that Eddie starts out on a CS80, which is cool. Martin is rockin' the Bach as well. Best band ever.
Yes. Little known trivia: Jobson wrote most of this piece when he was 13 or 14-years-old, a lot of it isn't Bach, just written in the style of Bach when EJ was a kid. Absolutely true story.
Children of Dombas - Oleg Russkikh Kazakhstan performed by A. Rosembaum I saw a dragonfly in the yard The door opened and ran barefoot, Something rumbled like a thunderstorm Flew all around somersault. Ash fell my dragonfly, Settled our house with a mountain of bricks, Mom was gone and dad was in tears Something terrible was shouting into the sky. Evil clouds danced above me, The world was on fire, no one extinguished it, Someone in khaki carried me in his arms, Someone in white was cutting and sewing me. I tried my best to hold back my crying. But when, suddenly in the ensuing silence, The doctor suddenly cried I realized that I won't be big anymore. My summer is dying in me I'm so scared that I'm screaming But who is to blame and who is not? I don't know... and I don't want to know... I have to endure a little, And when I'm in heaven I, on all of you, will complain to God! I'll tell him everything about you...
The European "A" tour was early '81. This is one of only TWO single stage appearances Jobson made in the following 27 years, in 1985 and 1989, both guesting with Tull.
A proposito di grandi violinisti del rock ,oltre a Eddy JOBSON che è fenomenale.... Mi permetto di citare anche altri che sono altrettanto straordinari es JEAN LUC PONTY, DARRYL WAY, GREG BLOCK, STUART GORDON rip, ROBBIE STEINHARDT rip , DAVID CROSS, MAURO PAGANI, FRED FRITH, perché oltre ad essere un grande chitarrista è multistrumentista ed altrettanto straordinario violinista, GRAHAM SMITH e ce sarebbero altri tutti di alto altissimo livello!!!!!!!!!!!!

Big Kudos to Dave Pegg and Martin Barre for their amazing playing as well.
Who else but Jethro Tull could pull this off so well and with such a sense of humor ?
I could only think of Gentle Giant capable hitting the Contrapunkt that well
Frank Zappa, he is the only other one that might have - other than Frank. I am not sure- Fuckin Jethro Tull RULES. !!!
Eddie Jobson, the first violinist inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (2019) !!
Art Rock
They haven’t inducted Nash the Slash or Jean Luc Ponty or Charlie Daniels?
@@AlfredFJones1776 Nope. John Cale of Velvet Underground played the viola, but Jobson is the first and only ROCK violinist.
Yeah, in Roxy Music
Robbie Steinheart..
@@bikerhighmiler8998 What about him? He's not in the R&R Hall of Fame. Jobson is the only violinist.

I used to have a white shirt like his. And I used to have hair on the TOP of my head. I'm still working on becoming phenomenal and legendary though.
CONGRATS TO EDDIE .. PROG AWARD.. LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!
Never heard Martin Barre, Dave Pegg & Eddie Jobson play so tight together!
And Ian!
Agree! It appears all band members are in a very good mood and very much enjoying this event!
Bach demanded it!!!
I've never seen Eddie smiling before🎵☺
Beautiful performance⤴
This is the very first thing I ever saw of Jethro Tull and I remember I couldn't believe a band like this existed.
Absolutely incredible!! 🌟
I have been a Jethro Tull fan since I was 12 years old. I heard them do re-arrangements of Bach before (Bouree in Em), but never heard this one. This is bad ass!
What an AWESOME bass player, band is too:)
Dave Pegg is a totally amazing bass player, and he doesn't recognize it himself. He just does it. Folk-rock trained!
Incredible….Jobson is such a Virtuoso
Jobson is a great musician!
Bach….one of ,if not the very best Masters of all time…
Agreed, although much of this music isn't Bach, it was written by Eddie Jobson at the age of 13 (his first string quartet).
what a wonderful music !!!!!...this is music for our ears boys !!!!!
Eddie Jobson is the greatest
So GREAAAATT !!!
Just so classical and Loved the Cake.
Fantastic!
Very great Performance 👍
Love Jobson's folded up sheet music to fit in his pocket! :-)
Amazing!
Excellent!

Outstanding performance! Thanks for posting this gem...
Stunning performance...¡¡¡ YEAH...😎😎😎
Hearing this for the first time in 2022. Amazing!!
Jobson y Anderson son dioses mitológicos del Rock, traspasaron la barrera de lo humano
Really stellar!
For me - simply phenomenal!
Eddie is beyond human
This Bach piece was an old standard of Jethro Tull ... really impressive at the time I first heard it. Still rather good!
Most of this is Jobson, not actually Bach.
Bach is loving this, wherever he is!
I dreamed I went to Bach's grave and dug him up. I found him erasing sheet music as fast as he could. I asked him,what are you doing,Sir? He replied,"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm decomposing!"😂😂
huh! jobson site-reads it while playing flawlessly!
Jobson was the best musician to join the band. It's a shame it was only for a year, but someone as talented as Jobson probably doesn't respond well to Ian's "Micromanaging".
Most violinists learn this piece pretty early on... from personal experience
really doubt he's sight reading this.
Doctor Ferdinand He mostly was in since his main band UK was opening for jethro tull at the time
oh please disregard that, i didn’t check the date on this. that was true in 1979, but not in 1985
Muchas Gracias Sir Remy !!!

and Frank Zappa!
Eddie the man, the musician.
That was AWESOME !!
EPIC
There's talent there young lads
Benefit was my first J.Tull LP and bought it for the band title not ever hearing this band at all . Not a mistake that most people thought Jethro was really Ian A. Real name not the title of a band, so funny but so cool finding this new band in young days to play at home on my new stereo after landing a job at gm . LoL~~~
Another fantastic sidemand (Eddie) and there has been "a few" over time in J.T.
Awesomeness
Love the sus4 chords on the keys starting @ 5:27 Great stuff always loved Tull and Jobson on the keys and violin was the icing on the cake (pun intended)
excellent
Tull was my favorite band for a reason, and this pretty much sums it up.
docsketchy
Yes? I'm still here. This video is still awesome. I see that Eddie starts out on a CS80, which is cool. Martin is rockin' the Bach as well. Best band ever.
Wow!
The forword drive in Bachs music is so inspering to al genres of great misic.And this is no exeption
Super , nemá to chybu!!!!
Jethro Tull,ever.
Jobson is an effing genius,
Yes. Little known trivia: Jobson wrote most of this piece when he was 13 or 14-years-old, a lot of it isn't Bach, just written in the style of Bach when EJ was a kid. Absolutely true story.
The Best
I'd love to see any other rock band try to pull this off with such perfection.
Um, on second thought, maybe not.
Prog Rock Heaven.
Imagine what Barriemore could've done with this .
In the studio, yes - but I prefer Doane Perry as a live drummer.
All musicians are excellent but Dave Pegg is sensational.
Was it my imagination, or did Anderson's party blower briefly catch on fire when trying to put out the last candle around the 5:00 mark?
Yo pienso que Mozart y otros grandes músicos eran como Ian Anderson: irreverentes, locos, carismáticos, genios...!
Eddie steps it up!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I prefer the bit they did of this song in the interlude of bouree from "a little light music album.
And the 2nd movement ??? 😍
Πολύ καλή παρουσιάση από το δάσκαλο...
That's interesting, when I saw the "A" concert, Jobbo had a crystal violin ... I wonder what happened to that?
justgivemethetruth He owns so many he probably brings what's best for the time.
Jeez - listen to Pegg go.
He obviously loves playing these intricate lines.
Of course Pegg loves it! Steve Hackett said Bach is the all-time greatest bass writer!
Who is playing bass? I'm loving it!
Dave Pegg
What a show off!!😊
from 1:17 to 1:19 isn't this speedy Terminator theme?
Children of Dombas - Oleg Russkikh Kazakhstan
performed by A. Rosembaum
I saw a dragonfly in the yard
The door opened and ran barefoot,
Something rumbled like a thunderstorm
Flew all around somersault.
Ash fell my dragonfly,
Settled our house with a mountain of bricks,
Mom was gone and dad was in tears
Something terrible was shouting into the sky.
Evil clouds danced above me,
The world was on fire, no one extinguished it,
Someone in khaki carried me in his arms,
Someone in white was cutting and sewing me.
I tried my best to hold back my crying.
But when, suddenly in the ensuing silence,
The doctor suddenly cried
I realized that I won't be big anymore.
My summer is dying in me
I'm so scared that I'm screaming
But who is to blame and who is not?
I don't know... and I don't want to know...
I have to endure a little,
And when I'm in heaven
I, on all of you, will complain to God!
I'll tell him everything about you...
I don't understand? Is this a prayer for Ukraine?
@@UnityFromDiversity Yes. for the children and women killed and maimed by the Nazis of the Union of Europe in Ukraine.
I wonder if Yngwie has covered this piece.
Было дело.....................................................................
YAMAHA CS80
1985? Eddie left in 1980.
1985 is correct, 1980, 1981 and 1985
The European "A" tour was early '81. This is one of only TWO single stage appearances Jobson made in the following 27 years, in 1985 and 1989, both guesting with Tull.
Then I was lucky enough to catch him . An early Whitesnake line up opened for them..
@@666kr and JS Bach was born in 1685.
the drums are from 83' so it works
I think it was a very valid and good attempt, kind a poor result
No😂
Mind blowing banality.
You shouldn't speak about Bach that way.
@@musicprofessor1 I haven't. I have, obviously, spoken about the rendition. You shouldn't speak about such thigns at all.
