Jethro Tull brought that fire! 🔥What a killer performance! What should we check out next from them?
A good bet for a follow up is My God Live from from the Isle of Wight show. Its a showcase for Ian and the flute.
Aqualung Live at Madison Square 78 really shows off the band and especially guitar Martin Barre but no flute solos
Jethro Tull is the name of the band .... Ian Anderson is the lead singer and flute player.
Jethro Tull was another of those amazing groups that no one these days knows. Sad. They were unique like no one these days is.
So good!!! This performance was absolutely amazing and I can’t wait to hear more! Thanks for watching with me!
Jethro Tull are a British progressive rock band formed in 1967. The group’s founder Ian Anderson plays flute & acoustic guitar & is the lead singer & quite a showman. They've had a lot of different members over the years. They had a lot of great songs such as "Thick As A Brick", "Aqualung", "Living In The Past", "Songs From The Wood", "A New Day Yesterday", "Cross-Eyed Mary", "Bungle In The Jungle", "Sweet Dream", "Life’s A Long Song" etc.
Thanks for the info and all the suggestions! Definitely a band I am going to dig into! Crazy talented! 🤘🏻
A personal favourite of mine that's rarely mentioned is Skating Away (on the Thin Ice of a New Day)
And they're still rocking. They recently released another album.
I suggest that you listen to the album "Crest of a Knave ". That was the album that beat Metallica for the Grammy. Listen and you will see why JT won!
Yes Yes YES!!!!
Jethro Tull is the group. Ian Anderson, lead vocalist, combat-flutist... it's John Evan on the piano there, I think.
Fun Fact: Tommy Iomi (of Black Sabbath fame) was a member of Jethro Tull in 1968 and 1969.
Wow! Super cool! They were absolutely phenomenal and such a great band! Thanks for watching!
Jethro Tull From the 70s, and early 80s are the greatest live band of all time.
Tommy Iommi was a member for about 2 weeks at the end of 1968. He never actually recorded with them and only appeared with them (miming) once in the Rolling Stones Rock And Roll Circus film "playing" A Song For Jeffrey....then he left.
@@BG-id2cv Tommy said that the band were very disciplined ,they would promptly start working at 9.00 am.He had never worked in a band like that before.
Aqualung, cross eyed Mary, teacher, New day yesterday, steel monkey, roots to branches, ect. Enjoy!
Anyone in Metallica wishes they could shred like Martin Barre and have the showmanship of and versatility of Ian Anderson. And these guys did it 100% analog other than a few pedals.
Minstrel in the gallery!!!
These guys have such range and depth and talent you could flip through every album they've put out what about 20 of them? 30 of them and you'll never be able to anticipate what's coming.
You won't like every song, but you'll be impressed with the talent
The drummer's name is Barrymore Barlow who just happened to be John Bonham of Led Zeppelin's favorite drummer. For another good track try Thick as a Brick live in Madison Square Garden
Appreciate it! That’s a tune that keeps getting suggested! Gotta check it out for sure! Thanks!
In fact, Led Zeppelin asked Barlow to join them when Bonham passed away.
The band is called Jethro Tull.
Gotcha! Thanks for clearing that up for me! Have a great one!
Jethro Tull invented the seed drill. This band have a fine sense of humour.
Haha 🤣 No doubt! They are also crazy talented and entertaining to watch! Thanks for stopping by!
@@setonhillstudios I like your accent and you have a good ear.
@@mojobag01 Appreciate that! Yeah, the accent I’m stuck with 🤣 From the South!
That intro, THAT INTRO!!! so dynamic, so epic, one of the truly greatest of all time, starting with lyrical bluesy piano, introduce some guitar changing things up, them BAM! it just launches into the song, it kinda subverts expectations going in, genius
Great point! Such a cool way to get into it! Thanks for the insight and stopping by!
John Evan (keys) never gets enough credit
It was John Evan’s band that Ian joined in 1968.
As already pointed out, Jethro Tull is the name of the band. They were named by their booking agent after an 18th-century agriculturist for one gig - and the name stuck.
The change of pace at about 9minutes is to 'Land of Hope and Glory' - its sort of the UK's unofficial national anthem.
Jethro Tull invented the "seed drill", which kinda revolutionised farming in that seeds were dropped at consistent height in the tilled soil and thus ripened at the same time. This is important to not have "almost ripe" crops mixed with "ripe" and "past ripe" ... to have maximum production. It also sped up the sewing process, which had been done by hand before.
Oh now you are getting into the good stuff!
Thanks for watching! Such a killer band! 🤘🏻
I really feel for you young ones who never got to see these bands or even buy their albums when they first came out.
Yea, we definitely missed out on a lot. Better late than never to discover them though!
Cross eyed Mary Aqualung
Minstrel in the Gallery love love love Jethro Tull!!!
Best concert I ever saw!!!
Let’s gooooo! Thanks for sharing! Always love hearing the memories!
Jethro Tull invented (or refined) the seed drill in 1701. If the band had been more into reaping than sowing, they might have been called Michael Menzies, inventor of a mechanical thresher around the same time.
I seen this band multiple times but the Under Wraps tour was off the chain. All the instruments were covered in sheets ie: an old house and a man came out in a lab coat pretending to take notes and pulled the sheet off the microphone closest to the stage. A naked woman then ran off the man took off his glasses hat and lab coat and it was Ian Anderson, the band then came out revealing all the instruments and proceeded to start the show.
That is EPIC! I wonder if there is any footage of that anywhere? What a way to start a show! Thanks for sharing!
One of my faves, I never get tired or watching this or watching people react to it.
I can see why! Such a fun and entertaining band! Can’t wait to hear more!
Thick as a Brick is another good place to start. Or Aqualung
Appreciate the suggestions and you stopping by the channel! Have a great one!
One of my all time favorite songs.
Jethro❤🤗
Absolutely loved their show when they came to South Africa in 1994. Ian Anderson is also something else!
Awesome! Thanks for the memory and swinging by the channel! Have a great one!
Jethro Tull is the name of the band. Ian Anderson is the lead singer
Thanks so much! Have a great one! 😁
My first concert ever was his Songs From The Woods tour at Hoffheinz Pavilion in Houston. Many in the audience were smoking weed, but Ian and band members were always sober and musically tight. To this day it is my favorite concert ever. Ian is a genius. Go deep down that rabbit hole, my friend, and you will become a big fan.
That’s awesome! I’m sure their entire catalogue is incredible!
I have seen Jethro Tull band, Ian Anderson is the man.
I have seen them play fourteen times. First time I saw them was in1977. The last time I saw them was 2015. A tour of the u s was announced for this year 2024, Thank god chicago is one of the stops again. What you mean, jethro tull will have toured in six different decades.
I took my 19-year-old daughter to see them in 2015. Still a great show.
Ian Anderson still could jam on the flu. Te and all the instruments still, it is dancing around. Only his voice was not as strong as it once was.
Looking forward to seeing the band in ian anderson one more time. Still one of my favorite bands.
You're gonna know Ian when you see him! 😆❤️✌️
They all look as if they just walked out of the forest. The Band of merry men! ❤
Check out "My God", Either the live version from the Isle of white concert, or the studio version from the Aqualung album.
Education ain’t free..
They took the name from an O.G. farmer/inventor from back in the day.
Jethro Tull invented the seed drill , and Heavy Metal🤘🏽
My dude! We need to get together and play some soon! 🤘🏻
Aha! I knew that name sounded familiar, but I sure couldn't connect it with this...shaking my head and wandering outside in a daze...
LOL You handled that one well, my man! Great comments.
Thanks so much Milton! Hope all is well! This band was unreal. So talented!
It's taken me three reactions to stop crying after watching your Bread reaction. 😆 I'm okay! 😂
Definitely a tear jerker that’s for sure! Thanks for hanging out! 😁
Jethro Tull are great live, their performances are full of energy, humour and really great music.
Locomotive Breath (from the fantastic Aqualung album) is usually their encore piece and as such will have a mix of other songs (this version had, I think, 'Land of Hope and Glory' and 'Back Door Angles'). Glad you picked this video as it has that great piano intro (similar to studio version) which others seem to miss.
As a drummer you might like to hear 'Dharma for One' live (it's a long one) - I think it might have been Barriemore Barlow on drums on this - but they have had several different drummers in the band.
Appreciate the suggestions! Yeah, the whole band was insanely talented on this one and the drummer was on 🔥
Yes, try this out kids
For something completely different from them, check out their album Heavy Horses (yes, an album about farm life!)
In 1989, the Grammys introduced a new category, Best Hard Rock/ Heavy Metal album. Metallica was the favorite to win, Jethro Tull members didn't even attend the ceremony because they thought they had no chance. The voters weren't really ready for Heavy Metal, so they voted for the 'Hard Rock' side for Crest of the Knave. (A good album, but not one of their best.) The next year, the category was split into two- Hard Rock and a separate Heavy Metal.
Appreciate the info! I was unaware just how talented they were! So good! Thanks for watching! 🤘🏻
Quintessential English prog eccentricity this is why they're revered in the rock world.
The transition is land of hope and glory (unofficial 2nd UK 🇬🇧 national anthem)
They were absolutely phenomenal in this performance! Can’t wait to hear more! Have a great one!
Drummer - Barriemore Barlow
English musician.
Jethro Tull won the 1989 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance Vocal or Instrumental - despite being a progressive rock band.
If this was such a surprise you should of course check more Tull. The songs "Minstrel in the gallery" and "Songs from the wood" might give the spectrum. Other similarly very skilled artists are Gentle Giant - check "Free hand" live 1978 - and Frank Zappa, test "Montana" live 1973 remastered. You will be surprised in the same way.
Awesome! Thanks for all the suggestions and hanging out with us! Can’t wait to dig deeper down the rabbit hole! Have a great one!
Energy & Emotion is what Ian Anderson was about with Martin Barr on the lead. Having seen Jethro Tull several times live all I can say they are masters on the stage and their music is beyond most.
Yes they did get their roots in the blues. Check out "Stormy Monday" on You Tube look under Jethro Tull 20 years Album. The list of songs by this group that I listen to is much too long. If you liked this performance, you would enjoy most, I always like a live cut of "Nothing is Easy". Of course to listen to a master album of "Thick as a Brick" is beyond a journey. They are best known for the Aqualung album which this song was on.
Others to enjoy " Life Is A Long Song" ; Songs from the Wood" ; "Too Old To Rock 'N' Roll (Live)"; "Pussy Willow"; " and of course "Living in the Past" but the list could go on.
Appreciate the suggestions! Energy and emotion is a great description of this performance! So much fun to watch!
Yes, I got to see them 3 times, mostly in Detroit back in the early 70's. Always a fantastic show!
@@suecook1326 Wow! So awesome!
Barrymore Barlow is the drummer. He is absolutely brilliant!!🥁
So good! Thanks for sharing! 🥁
Hey, man, welcome to my favorite music for the past half-century. If you're really gonna get into Tull, you have to understand how they perform. You commented on their transitions in the performance, but what you may not realize is that this performance has more in it than "Locomotive Breath" (from the _Aqualung_ album). It's that to about 8:30. Then there's a sort of circus-sounding ad-lib jam for a while. Then they start "Back-Door Angels" (from _War Child_ ) around 13:10 (when the red hat comes out), and it's that until the end. Tull does this a LOT in concert, to the extent that you never really know what combo you're gonna get until you actually see it.
As for what to see from Tull, well, that's quite a project there. Figure from 1969 to still producing albums today (yes, really), with enormous shifts of styles, mountains of exploration and reinventions, and quite an array of band members over the years (*always* top-tier talent, rest assured). As the most basic introduction, I'd say listen to these albums : _Stand Up_ , _Aqualung_ , _Thick as a Brick_ , _A Passion Play_ , and _Heavy Horses_ , which will get you through the first 10 or 15 years. There's a TON after that (as well as a lot from those same years, all fabulous, that I left out for brevity), but those will get you started.
My personal opinion has always been that, in the same way that we study Shakespeare today, people 400 years from now will be studying Ian's lyrics as poetry. (Ian Anderson is the singer of the band. I'd say flautist, too, but he actually plays dozens of instruments.) I've always regarded him as The Bard of modern music. Listen a while & you'll likely see why.
Again, welcome to the wondrous music of Jethro Tull, & thanks for your reaction here. Cheers.
Wow had no idea that they were transitioning in and out of songs like that! They’re an amazing group for sure, excited to hear more!
Thick as a brick live Madison Square
Garden 1978
Thanks for the suggestion! Can’t wait to hear more from them!
The Madison Square Garden show is great, but I think the Tampa stadium version is even better.
welcome to the world of Tull. You can see from this video how great a band this is especially live because they sound just like the studio versions with some variations but absolutely amazing . So start your journey by listening to the album Stand Up 1969 through A 1980, Each album ( one every year)) was completely different from the previous
This song is off the 'Aqualung' album that was released in 1971 and went to number one in the USA - that's when they should have won a grammy, by the way Jethro Tull is the name of the band the vocalist, flutist and song writer is Ian Anderson. The drummer is Barriemore Barlow, check out his drum solo its brilliant. Check out 'Minstrel in the Gallery' and 'Thick as a brick'.
Appreciate all the info! Yeah I definitely jacked that up! 🤦🏻♂️ Such an amazing band though! Thanks for hanging out for a bit!
The drummer is none other than Barriemore Barlow. John Bonham's favourite drummer.
They were a PHENOMENAL band. One of the best ever, not to mention their own genre.
Barrie Barlow one of the best drummers ever that very few people are aware of. Check out live Thick as a Brick. Live Tull was perpetual energy, playing the most complex music and just goofing off at the same time. They were the Monty Python of rock and roll and genius Ian Anderson was the ring leader.
Drummer at this time was Barriemore Barlow.
Jethro Tull is the name of the band. No one in the band is named Jethro Tull. Tull is mainly Ian Anderson's baby, along with Martin Barre, the guitarist. Anderson is the flautist, lead vocalist and acoustic guitarist as well as the predominant songwriter and lyricist.
A friend of mine saw them in Vancouver and said at one point the stage went dark and quiet and then a phone could be heard ringing. Then a spotlight came on the front of the stage and a scuba diver in full gear climbed up out of the dark onto the stage and answered the phone. I would assume this was the tour supporting the Aqualung album. 🤣
Other songs worth checking out?
They cover Johann Sebastian Bach's song "Bourée". That might be interesting.
Aqualung
Bungle in the Jungle
Song for Jeffrey
Driving Song
"Christmas Song" is one of my favourites
"Thick as a Brick" is a good one but it's a 40 minute song.
This was fun. I'd never seen or heard this version of the song.
Gotcha! Thanks for the info! Wow, I bet that was a killer show! They are crazy talented and are very entertaining! Would have loved to have seen them live! 🤘🏻
I have saw 2 times live on stage.Fantastic music and fun with Ian Anderson🤘
So awesome!
Cross eyed Mary is another great one.
On one of the earlier studio albums is a radio edit where the host says something like "this sounds like someone played the flute over Cream"...😅❤
U younger dudes so sorry u missed it😢we hippies’ music was an adventure I’m still living❤June👩🏻🦰
I know right! 😞 BUT at least I’m finding it now. Better late than never I guess. Such a great era of music!
I love people's first reaction.
The whole Bursting Out album from this tour is great!
Sweet, I bet it’s fantastic!
I once was the only contestant in a Trivia Quiz who correctly answered the challenge, "Name the 17th century British agronomist who invented the seed drill." Jethro Tull, of course. 😁 I remember Ian Anderson continually having to explain that, no, he was not Jethro Tull.
Thanks for the info! Yeah I had no idea but you learn something new everyday! He is such an energetic frontman! So fun to watch!
I heard aqualung that hit me hard and I really loved it. I heard Bou'ree next and then Locomotive Breath and I was hooked and needed more! That was late 70s and there has never been a bad song of theirs.
Aqualung keeps popping up in the comments! Definitely have to check that out! Such an epic performance on this one! Thanks for watching!
What to recommend you watch …… 😂😂😂😂. I began putting together a playlist of my favorites last summer - and mind you, I go back to 1969 with them - the playlist is approaching 200 now. This particular concert I can watch over and over, but it’s a very deep rabbit hole with endless variety. Ian Anderson is mostly seen playing flute, guitar, and singing, but he also plays a mean harmonica, mandolin, and pretty much anything else that crosses his path. And he is responsible for most all the lyrics as well as much of the music. The musicians he surrounds himself with are all top notch too. Have fun exploring!
Thanks so much! I could tell they are crazy talented just from this one clip! I cannot wait to check out more from them!
Tull top check out... Skating Away on the thin ice of a new day, Aqualung, Thick as a Brick (full 45 minute album version) Living in the Past, Too Old to Rock and Roll Too young to Die.
I checked out Aqualung here on the channel and loved it! On our homepage look under the playlist ‘Bands • Groups’ and you can find it! So good!! 🔥
The flutist is Ian Anderson... Jethro Tull was the inventor of the steel clad plow back in the 18th century...
Good to know!
i am always amazed that professional musical people are cluesless of major groups and icons of the history of rock i hate rap and hip hop but know stuff from the 80 becuse i love music
So much music out there, it’s hard to keep track of it all! Talent everywhere you look!
I saw them live. Amazing show. I think we were in the third row; fifth row? Either way we were close enough we were dodging the spit coming out of his flute as he spun it around. Epic. Haha.
Ian Anderson, voc, flute, keys
Martin Barré, gtr
Barry Barlow, dr.
John Evan, keys
John Glascock, bass
Gotcha! Appreciate the info and you swinging by the channel! Such a great band!
Also David (now Dee) Palmer was the other keyboard player - with the cymbals near the end.
Hymn 43, Aqualung, Cross Eyed Mary -- and other Tull songs.
Appreciate it! This performance definitely surprised me at how talented they were! Unreal! 🤘🏻
I actually prefer the 1982 Rockpop concert performance more but unfortunately you don’t get the piano intro with that one. This is off of Aqualung, their best selling album and anything off of it is worth a listen. Their album “Thick as a Brick” is considered a masterpiece of prog-rock concert albums which is ironic since it was intended as a bit of a parody of concept albums. My personal favourite albums are “Songs From the Wood” and “Heavy Horses”.
Thanks for all the suggestions and I definitely have to check out more from them! So good! 🤘🏻
Don’t sleep on ‘70s progressive rock. Jethro Tull, Supertramp, and, of course, the incomparable Rush are all amazing, talented musicians/artists.
Such a great era of music!
Pentatonic code on the flute, blues, jazz and progressive rock you can't get better than that...primal music in my book
I saw them live when they were touring for Aqualung. The show was outstanding.
EPIC! Thanks for sharing! I bet that was a once in a lifetime experience! 🤘🏻
And between all the other rock music lies the album Heavy Horses. It is NOT about racing cars, but rather the songs are inspired by life on an English farm... with songs about cats, mice, moths, commuting back and forth between the city and the farm... and the title song, which is about the replacement of draft horses by tractors for the plowing etc.
What medieval minstrels would play if they were alive today.
Haha No doubt! 😂 Such a unique sound and the execution is flawless! Incredible band!
How many instruments do you think the Mad Man on the Flute taught himself how to play, kid, one? 😂😂😂
His real name is Ian Anderson😊 my son’s middle name is Ian & he’s 50!
Oh cool! That’s awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Hi It’s June again👩🏻🦰I heard a hippie song on a commercial u might want to ck out🎸🎸it’s “The Band” (very creative😉)I think they’re worth a watch. The song is weight? Take a load off Annie👩🏻🦰@@setonhillstudios
Don't think it's been pointed out but that was actually a medley of Locomotive Breath (a Tull song), Edward Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance No1 (commonly know as Land of Hope and Glory), and Back-Door Angels (a Tull song).
This particular line-up was quite short lived. John Glascock (bass) passed away due to a heart condition, the keyboard player on the left is David Palmer who had only recently joined, and John Evan, the keyboard player on the right, was soon to leave.
Oh, and the drummer is Barrymore Barlow, also soon to leave, not long after the bass player's death
Hi I’m June👩🏻🦰I loved Jethro Tull I’m from those days🎸🎸saw him In Person several times.his name is Ian Anderson & gave my son Ian for his middle name!
Hi June! That’s awesome!
I saw Tull at the old Boston Garden in the '70's on their "Thick As a Brick" tour. What a freakin' show!
In 1989, to their great surprise and much backlash, Jethro Tull won the first Grammy Award for "Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance". In the midst of all the controversy, Jethro Tull's record label placed an ad in Billboard magazine that read "The flute is a heavy, metal instrument." In 1992, when Metallica DID win the award for best metal performance, they thanked Jethro Tull for not releasing an album that year. It was quite a stir at the time, but looking back it's kind of a hoot.
Ian Anderson called Metallica a bunch of spandex pussies.
Live 77 version of Aqualung what a minstrel. The greatest!
Jethro Tull is the name of the band. There in no one in the band named Jethro Tull. The singer's name is Ian Anderson .
Thanks for the heads up!
Dude just watch this entire show. It'll tell you all you need to know.
I need to indeed! This was straight 🔥 Thanks for swinging by the channel!
Aqualung, Cross-eyed Mary, Bouree, Nothing is Easy, Minstral in the Gallery, Cold Wind to Valhalla, With You There To Help Me, Teacher, To Cry You a Song, Skating Away,Hunting Girl, Songs From the Wood, And The Mouse Police Never Sleeps, Dark Ages, Jack-a-Lynn, Farm on the Freeway. Then there's the 40 minute long Thick as a Brick.
Great song and reaction! Check out Agualung, that is my favorite Jethro Tull song.
Thanks so much! Appreciate the suggestion and you hanging out with us!
IAN ANDERSON is the flutist. JETHRO TULL is the name of the band (Just like there is no named Pink Floyd) In an interview in 2006, Ian Anderson said that he had not realized it was the name of "a dead guy who invented the seed drill - I thought our agent had made it up". He said if he could change one thing in his life, he would go back and change the name of the band to something less historical.
Gotcha, thanks for the info!
Jethro Tull was a 12 th century engineer. There is no one in the band with that name. He is Ian Anderson leader & flutist. Martin Barre lead guitar. 🎸 John Evan on keys.
Ian Anderson is the singer.
Gotcha! Thanks for sharing! That dude is so entertaining and fun to watch! Can’t wait to hear more!
Jethro Tull was an 18th century agronomist who invented a farming device called the seed drill. Nobody in the band is named Jethro Tull. ✌🏼😎🇺🇸
Yeah I kind of jacked that up! 🤣😂 Thanks for the info though and hanging out! Absolutely incredible performance! 🤘🏻
I have to say that it's definitely strange, yet strangely interesting. Hmmm...
I saw Tull three or four times in the 70's. Always a great show. Ian Anderson has no equal.
Such a great performance! I bet it was epic seeing them in person!
I was going to say Oh My God, check out everything, but you could take a look at a different version of Locomotive Breath Live and be just as blown away!
Yeah we’ve gotten quite of few “different” suggestions for tunes which means they have a DEEP catalogue! Always a great problem to have! Thanks for stopping by! 🤘🏻
@@setonhillstudiosJethro Tull is a band it is difficult to know what to suggest! "Thick as a Brick" is a great track, a few of my personal favourites are "Wind Up" & "My God" his 80's & 90's are great with a different feel! Hope you enjoy his work!
Timeless and the best frontman in history surrounded by very vey skilled musicians.... Reminding me of my all time favourite composer FZ
They’re so good!
Well, for rocking hard, check out Minstrel In The Gallery, Black Sunday, Aqualung, Hymn 43, and any and all parts of Thick As A Brick and A Passion Play (their two single song albums).
This is by far the best Tull reaction I've seen, and I've seen most of them.
1st, it felt like an actual first impression with my suspicious nature only being tweaked when you paused right before the flute solo to say you thought tull was all about flute.
2nd, you chose from the best tull era. Tull was forged in the late 60s and 70s. Live, they really hit their stride with Evan and Palmer on keyboards, Glasscock and Barie Barlow for the rhythm section, Martin Barre playing guitar and, of course, Ian Anderson. 80s Tull, Ian couldn't sing and keyboards overwhelmed the rest of the band. JMO
3rd, you actually noticed there were five other guys on the stage. About time that someone gave them their due.
If you react to cross-eyed Mary, please choose the one performed at the capital center in 1976, I believe. It's great.
Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for the suggestion!
#JETHROTULL
Let’s gooooooo! 🤘🏻🔥
JT was the baddest of all fuk'n time. They'll live on forever.
Jethro Tull was the band name ... kind of like the phrase "which one's Pink" in relation to Pink Floyd
Ian Anderson is the lead singer/flutist/guitar
Yeah I kind of jacked that up! 🤣 Absolutely incredible band though! Thanks for watching!
Welcome to the Jethro Tull musical Rabbit Hole. They were accomplished and eclectic musos. Great review Mr. Seton. Greetings from Western Australia.🔴🟠🟡🟢🔵🟣🟤⚫⚪
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Further on the musicians. For "Skating Away on the Thin Ice of a New Day" live 1977, the guitarist plays marimba and other percussive, the drummer plays some similar instrument sitting on the floor, the keyboardist plays accordion and drums, Ian plays acoustic and sings and the bass player plays bass. By the way, a deep well. Jethro Tull - 23 studio albums including one in 2022 and one in 2023. Albums by Ian Anderson not using Jethro Tull name - 6 studio albums.
Wow! I better get busy then cause they have a deep catalogue! Appreciate the info and you stopping by the channel!
Ian Anderson the front man for Tull took out a full page ad in I think it was Billboard Magazine that went something like "To all of the naysayers that say Jethro Tull didn't deserve to win the Grammy I'd like to point out that the category was for Rock/ Heavy Metal album of the year and the flute IS a heavy, Metal instrument!
I would suggest the song Thick as a Brick from the same show from 1977!
Appreciate the suggestion! Ian hitting em’ back! 🤣 That’s hilarious! They are crazy talented though, that’s for sure!
You have a great smile.
Thanks so much! That’s very kind of you! Appreciate you swinging by the channel!
progressive rock is always entertaining
No doubt! Their level of talent was unreal! Definitely not what I expected!
You're right, the technical musicianship is just amazing with this band. If you want to listen to less "crazy" 3 minute songs, listen to any track from the superb albums "Stand up", or "Benefit" or "Aqua lung". If you want to hear Ian Anderson's crazy flute playing skills, check out this song "My God" - th-cam.com/video/5WSulenOUb0/w-d-xo.html
There is SO much amazing content from this band though, honestly you could do reactions on 10 or 20 songs and just be getting started, love these guys. And Ian Anderson, amazing composer, Martin Barre on Guitar, fantastic, and as you said, the drummer on this performance you reacted to, and the whole band - wow!
Appreciate all the info and I can’t wait to check out more from them! I have always heard their name but never knew they were this insanely talented! Thanks for swinging by the channel!
Seen several react to this song, but first for this video. But like the other, transitions to another song when he goes off and gets the balloon. This time he only needed one, in the other it gets popped right away and he gets the backup out
Awesome! Always gotta be prepared right! Such a killer band and a phenomenal performance! Thanks for hanging out for a bit! 🤘🏻
