magic

Saw these guys at the Boston Garden years ago- incredible- what a performnce!

Tull composed some of the nicest riffs during his time. Those were the days

For those of us who grew up in this era,this is a remarkable piece of musical history.Thanks for this.

The music rules!

perfect!!

Wow, this is the very first concert I ever went to,(well, the L.A. Coliseum show, but the same tour) when I was 15. Amazing show. Also playing: Robin Trower, Rory Gallagher, Star Castle, & F.C. It featured "Tullivision" (1st time a huge screen was used for an outdoor concert, 2 show close-ups). The band hadn't toured in 3 years.. & quite a spectacle it was! This brings back a lot of memories,thx for posting! Went on to see them 3 more times after this,. Jethro Tull was/is truly incredible :o)

Yada yada yada. I don't give a damn about influences, etc. Ian stands alone. He is magnificent. He is unique. And the Steeleye Span album he produced is as unique and wonderful as he.

Favorite song of all time, the full version that is. Second would have to be Child in Time of Deep Purple.

Awasome!

cant stop wathing this video..relly fantastic performance

great comment manzanadecoco..totally agree with you.cheers!

I grew up listening to Zeppelin which pretty much blurred the lines for everything. Very hard rock, blues, folk (Sandy Denny), pseudo reggae, funkish, pop, prog (Carouselambra?), etc. So I rarely worried abut lines between music, except for the disco incursion of the late 70s. ;) That said, of those other band, I've only actually heard of Fairport and maybe The Strawbs.

Most people didn't know about it because the film was never aired and I'm not sure if Tony was out to tell anyone he was once in Tull. And he was in it so briefly, contributing nothing to the band musically (ie input into new songs) that Ian really had no need to mention him. The Tull Family Tree in my 1 disc 20 years of Tull booklet skips Tony entirely saying Mick left in Nov 68 and Martin Barre joined in 12/68. I had RnR Circus on CD, but didn't know he was in Tull until the DVD came out.

The Strawbs showed their folk origins even more than Tull did. Around these parts, we did not draw a line in the sand between prog and folk so if liked prog, it was ok to like Fairport and Steeleye too. Or French-Canadian proggy folk (Séguin) or folk (Bottine Souriante, Reve du Diable). Ian Anderson produced a Steeleye LP, and Tull borrowed Dave Pegg from Fairport.

That all sounds right. But I don't remember anybody discussing a Tull-Sabbath connection in the '70s. I think those facts came out well after the event. The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Rock would have liked a tidbit like that, but I don't think that fact is in that 1970s book.

Interestingly, Jethro Tull is the reason for Black Sabbath's existence. Though he never recorded with them and he can't even be heard, as only Ian is playing live, Tony Iommi was briefly in Tull and is miming guitar on The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus film (12/68). Ian was a slave driver and drove perfectionism into Tony. When Tony left and returned to Earth, he held them to the same level of discipline. Shortly after, they wrote "Black Sabbath" and changed their name to match.

I thnk they got called metal because of the riff form Aqualung. Beyond that and bits and pieces of other songs, they were at least as much a folk band as they were a progressive band. Just that most folk rock groups weren't writing albums with just one song on them. ;) So they got too folky for rock, but got too hard at other times for folk, and too long for anything but prog.

We probably classified KISS as "metal" in the 1970s too. But I didn't go to school with anyone who liked "metal". Everybody liked progressive. Even the chicks. At least at my school. But since then we've had punk, disco, new wave, metal. Rap. How can anybody listen to something as boring and repetitive and self-aggrandizing as rap? They used to criticize *Keith Emerson* for being a little conceited. But he knew how to play! And compose! So now I like Sabbath. Hated 'em at age 16. Like 'em at 48.

In the 1970s, we did use the term "heavy metal", but then that meant groups that were at the harder, or bluesier, end of hard rock. So Zeppelin, Sabbath, Purple, Aerosmith. Maybe Rush. "Heavy metal" *never* meant Tull or Yes or Genesis or Gentle Giant or ELP or Roxy, or any other progressive rock or art rock group. Or any Krautrock group either. Not Nektar, not Triumvirat, not Grobschitt, etc. Not Magma from France either.

yea it was on the history ch there music has nothing to do with metal an yea do some homework on where this all started the history of the name is self was brought back to life by the 20th centry band jethro tull , if you know some history you will appreciate the music better ! dammit all , but thanks for putting this up good show !!!
