Jethro Tull - Thunderbird content!

[Denis]

Nifty footage of Tull at Isle of Wight, 1970. Good shots of Cornick's T-bird!

[Stjofön Big]

Nice bass. Boring band.

[nofi]

you mean jethro dull?

[Hornisse]

Cool vid.  I love Jethro Tull.  Not boring at all if you ask me.  I guess my favorite by them is still Bungle In The Jungle.

[Highlander]

... and a selection of Hiwatt's thrown in for good measure...

[eb2]

That is probably the best period of Tull.  I like that gig a lot.  Now, A Passion Play?  That is boring.

[Freuds_Cat]

Now, A Passion Play?  That is boring.

Cant disagree with that.

I'm still a fan though. As unfashionable as it might be I love the Broadsword and the beast album and the usual culprits like Aqualung, Thick as a Brick, Minstrel in the Gallery and Too Old to Rock 'n' Roll: Too Young to Die!



saw them during the Catfish rising tour and was suitably entertained.

[Highlander]

Never been a great fan but have a nice compilation of their stuff...

[Rhythm N. Bliss]

The first 3 Tull albums with GC are among THEE BEST ROCK ALBUMS MADE!!!
They were one of the most riveting LIVE bands in the 60s.
I was just a schoolboy then & I was blown away!!! Saw 'em several times.
Clive Bunker is still one o' the Best Ever Drummers! GREAT Rhythm Section!!

[clankenstein]

thats a pretty dirty bass sound he has there.flog those hiwatts!

[Rhythm N. Bliss]

The dvd of this show sounds a lot better than this youtube clip, of course.

I never liked heavy metal until Tull got their heavy metal Grammy.

I never liked heavy metal until Tull got their heavy metal Grammy. 

That really pissed Metallica off!  I remember they performed at that Grammy Awards show and were expected to win.  I actually liked that record though. (Crest Of A Knave)  The award was (officially) for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance Vocal or Instrumental

I totally agree here.

I've got that DVD. Glenn is one of my major influences

[gweimer]

I found Tull with Mick Abrahams a little inconsistent, but once Martin Barre came on, they were solid.  Benefit is probably my favorite album, followed closely by Aqualung and Thick as a Brick.  I actually sat down once, and learned most of Thick as a Brick.
