The best Jethro Tull from 1968 to 1972.
When Glenn Cornick was kicked out the band never sounded the same.
The best of times.
I thank the Lord I was alive during that time
Totally agree. Cornick and Bunker were Tull’s backbone
I agree. Ian never had another bassist as good as Glenn.
Disagree! Never the same since Martin Barre left!
Martin Barre is a guitar player. Glenn Cornick was a bass player. We are discussing bass players here. My opinion is that Jethro Tull from 1968 to 1972 were amongst the greatest bands to ever exist.@@ironhorse1962
@chicklets4ever51
tout à fait d'accord ! MAIS Martin est parti avec l'âme de JT.....voir l'énergie de son propre groupe et les versions parfaitement réalisées des chansons qu'ils exécutent
You don’t see Martin Barre on anyone’s top 10 guitarist lists but he’s fully deserving of a spot. That tone!
Amen to that! - one of my favourite guitarists of all time - and completely unique. For some reason, Martin was rarely given the opportunity to play his full solo from "We Used To Know" - which for me was probably his best studio solo ever! Yes, I know his work on "Aqualung" was truly brilliant - and rightly highly praised -but i just adore the both solos on WUTK.
He was in my top 3 influences when I was 19. Alex Lifeson, Marvin Barre and Jimmy Page in that order at the time.
Exactly 💯
I have so many. But, Martin is in there.
Barre kicked ass on Metallica and won the heavy metal battle hands down, Metallica is great, but, Barre is another level .
The best of the best! No-one has ever come close to Tull in my humble opinion!
Ian Anderson was one of the most captivating front men ever; even when he's not at the mike. And Jethro Tull were just in a league all their own! Every one of them a great musician.
Why talking about thme at a past tense ? I may not appreciate all his decisions but Ian is still playing concerts, has just released a good album and, in spite of his vocal problems, he's still a very good musician and frontman on stage.
8 or 9 times in concert throughout the seventies. Can't remember all the cities and states
There was much rejoicing and a good time was had by all 👍💯✌️🖖😎
I'm American, many outstanding drummers here; but Clive Bunker is just killer; least, I always thought so.
@@tomp.6239 Dharma for one prime example. Clive kills it! 💯👍🏻✌️🌊🖖
The best song of Jethro tull ever !!!
Martin Barre is an outstanding guitarist.
In a league all of their own . I got into them in 1977 and never got out of them. Ian Anderson an underrated acoustic guitarist.
You got that right.
Saw them 3 times in Melbourne. Amazing! Great music and great show. I love We Used to Know....reminds me of all the great heavy music of the time.
I grew up following the bands of the 60s and 70s. Tull outshines the lot and that includes Beatles, Hendrix, Stones and Cream
Tull at his pinnacle of greatness
He still plays but has no wind left in his voice
I'm 40 and this is my ALL TIME FAVORITE BAND. My parents raised me right ❤ got Tix to 3 shows . Can't wait for Riverbend though!!!
Became a severe Fan in 71' I have loved Tull ever since. Lost count of their concerts I have been to. My favorite Band of all time. I went from the Beatles straight to Jethro Tull.
One of the most underrated bands of that and all eras. Intellectually demanding, lyrically beautiful, expressive excellent musical chops- individually and as a group. Strong lead instruments, flute, guitars and piano. Yet without the superb rhythm section it would be nothing. A great ensemble, great song thanks for existing JT. In the early 2000,s I was at a family friends funeral close to Atlantic City NJ. While people I hardly knew grieved I snuck out to Trumps (?) Casino I think and caught a set of Jethro Tull. What a hoot The Band with the jangle of a casino vibing under this great performace- unforgettable. My wife is still pissed she decided not to go, like it was my fault she wanted to sit with old women dressed in black. I sat with rockers dressed in black, Ha ha!
What makes you believe they're underrated?
@@gogoyubari366 Brilliant as they are on recordings and live they, (my opinion) seem to float in the backwaters of total recognition. Having followed the artistic expression in conceit and on recordings they deserve so much more!
They're underrated because they don't get the love and press that Zeppelin or the Who get. Tull can be a bit 2 heady for some ears.
Agree in part.
Underrated, is an overrated word for those who have no original thoughts of their own.
Stop this BS.
Just enjoy the magic world of JT.
I saw them in the 70's.. I recently watched a youtube of a classically trained flutist watching on his older performances. She was impressed with what he was doing with the flute. Things she'd never seen done. In the end, she was impressed (and liked the performance!).
Must have listened to this at least 200 times! Never tire of it. Ground breaking... never been another band like Tull, nor another frontman like Ian Anderson! Awesome stuff!!!
So Unreal and after all of these years when I go back and look at Martin Barre, Glenn Cornick, and John Evans, I mean like I am speechless. I saw Tull so many times between '69 and '74 when I was so in Love with them. I am so, so glad that I had the opportunity to do that. I have seen Ian in the last few years and his voice is gone but he still tries to put on a show with substitutions on voice but whatever it is and wil
l be, I will LOVE them and HIM
forever!!!
Ungodly 1st 5 LPs rival any band . One of the Best Live acts ! I witnessed 1st 10 tours and I was luck to see 25th Anniversary concert at the long gone Irvine Meadows . Love the Banter by Ian Anderson , rockin the flute and facial expressions priceless . Martin Barre is Blow mind ! 💣! Tull stood the test of time ⏳🕰
My favorite band . Ian Anderson proved to be a genius musician. Clive Bunker was an exceptional drummer and I always loved the sound of Martin on the guitar.
Crazy good...never get enough of Jethro Tull...🎶🎵 That flute was incredible....📖🌷
Les légendaires
Great performance. Glenn Cornick is one of the few bassists who always looks like he's having fun.
Surrounded by heavy timber, no neighbors, lotta buddies, lotta whiskey, lotta reefer, I lived 30 miles north of Everett, Washington in a log cabin surrounded by huge cedar & fir trees, 1973.
Ya, i being 20 years old, a union job ..I was making the equivalent in today's money $ 32 bucks hourly with full cover healthcare. Untouchable.
My buddies found an abandoned house...surrounded by blackberry bushes hidden away. A rich man's house probably empty for 70 years or more by what antiques found inside. We pilfered the rotting house of furnishings.
I furnished my Cabin with Persian rugs, antique furniture and tapestries. The tapestries were sublime.
Ok...I'm bragging. Ya so what, the truth is truth.
The story must be told , I cannot tell my son, him being straight-laced lawman, ya. My one failure.
I digress.
With a New Day Yesterday playing and a reefer lit and a pint of budwieser id kick back ...so cool ... a stunningly beautiful wife, with the bluest eyes this side of Neptune, the gods were benevolent. Truly indescribable when young...the sensuality is powerful.
I consider myself blessed to have lived this life. AND thrive, my way, during the u.s.a. Golden years.
The union years of u.s.a. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
1938 - 1979
Godammit what a cesspool now.
ANYWAYS
Jethro Tull was in Seattle,1970, 1971, 72, and I'm here to tell you what a show. I'm 69 now and in my top ten albums, STAND UP & BENEFIT by JETHRO TULL.
Surely the very best of the best.
I was nicknmed "tully" at school as I prefered this band to the Mowtown all the others listened to. that was in the 70's watched them at empire pool wembley uk same year. now 63cand love tull and this incarnation long live and godbless those absent. J.C R.I.P.
No one, other than Ian Anderson, can make a flute become a other-worldly being: Shrieking, pleading, whispering, whimpering, laughing, telling a story of a Neverland.
Ah... Roland Kirk.
His main influence.
Ian himself was other-worldly. His flute was a channel for the sacred. I like your comment, and agree.
The first group that captured my heart. 1972: I was 16 and had never heard of anything like it!
And still haven’t it’s 2023
Same here !!
Happened to me two years earlier, at the L.A. Forum. I was blown away and never saw the world the same after that! The yearly Forum gigs were pilgrimages for me, to something utterly beyond the limits of the world I was contending with. I would even say it was a religious thing for me; Ian and Jethro Tull were channels for the numinous and the sacred, for me.
I was there for 3 nights and Jethro Tull were one of the highlights along with the great Jimi Hendrix for me! It is truly wonderful that Ian Anderson is still playing great music, many thanks to all four original members.
For years I thought that Queen is my most favourite band, then I found Jethro Tull.
Alex Elf Wizard Tull has so many dimensions , the most underrated Rock band
OK ... understandable mistake.
Aye wy that's just it Alex you found utopia and that's Ganna stay with ya the rest of ya natch 😂😂well done and ATB
Sorry dude not even close Tull all the way 😊
He's an absolute genius I I bow down in humility.
He's a rock and roll god. That goes for everyone in the band.
You don't get that endorsement very easily for me
One of my fav Jethro's songs
Stupenda canzone cantata e suonata dai bravissimi fantastici Jethro tull guidati dal grandissimo Ian Anderson grandissimo chitarrista flautista carisma presenza sul palco formidabile affiancato dai bravissimi fantastici musicisti grazie tantissimo per le bellissime emozioni che ci avete donato con le vostre splendide performance visti live a Roma molti anni fa thank you so much dear Ian Anderson you are wonderful
Sitting here on the corner of the table, having a coffee, I remembered the first time I heard this song. I wondered, how did they do it so simply.
Kind of like Secretariat - give them a place to run, let them go, and prepare to be blown away by the power and beauty.
I was employed by ISLAND RECORDS 1966/1974! Been a fan since the mid Sixties. Class Act!
Jethro Tull
One of the greatest bands from 1968 to 1972
Thank you
They were great long after 1972
Awesome memories.
Thank you, from a 68 year old.
😪
Why nobody ever mentions Barre when they are arguing about rock's greatest players is incomprehensible.
Those in the know... Such a solid cut
Martin has a way of making his guitar bark at you. Always tuneful and melodic and can really get that hard Rock sound.
It’s because he always played for the song rather than taking a solo spotlight. Ian has that position in Jethro Tull 😊
Because he's not.
Just had the pleasure of seeing Martin a couple of weeks ago.
He did an acoustic show with his new band. Over the course of the show he played guitar, mandolin and, yes, the flute. Absolutely killed it at the age of 70.
If you do the math Martin Lancelot Barre was 15 when he joined Tull. He was 17 at the time of this Isle of White show.
I watch this at least once a week, sometimes more often.
Clive bunker is simply fantastic.
15 years before my birth. I need a time machine.
Jethro Tull were at the top of their field in this video.
That era produced the greatest bands to ever exist as well.
The Beatles
Jethro Tull
The Rolling Stones
Led Zeppelin
Black Sabbath
The Moody Blues
Pink Floyd
Jimi Hendrix
The Doors
The Guess Who
The Who
Grand Funk
The Monkees
Etc.
NOTHING LIKE THAT EXISTS TODAY. ZERO!
Jethro Tull
Te olvidaste de Deep Purple.Los mejores.Sakudos.
Faburous-Truly... 2023
We will never find and thing
Better than anyone ever heard abd
Listened to constantly. July 22, 2023
MARTIN BARRE
fantastic 50+ years!
Boy, the audience was in for a treat this night..
Yes, we enjoyed it thoroughly.
Tull had the best drummers of the 60's and 70's..
peart, bonham, moon, brudford, collins, palmer, paige, mitchell, baker ... never played with jethro tull
@@noriegajose OK whatever. Even Bonham said Barriemore was the best. He actually used his double bass drums frequently unlike Peart who seemed to only occasionally use the other bass drum. The man was and is a monster.
Listening it all comes flowing back............. from the dayz of trust belief the future shall be great we will overcome.....
What a band
Nothing more to do when you rock like that
The bassist is thunder holy bleep
This was before they got really commercialized, fresh, young, and strong, put on the map for all to see!!!!
I've been into Tull from the early 70s. I've never regarded then as ever becoming commercialised. Yes, I know they appear on Supersonic!
Jethro Tull - "Stand Up (LP)" This was the first time I ever listened to Jethro Tull. Just incredible! Then I listened to "This Was". I have both albums and will only give them up when I die. ... oh yeah, I'm keeping my "Thick As a Brick" album also.
I’m so old I remember Glenn Cornick on bass and Clive Bunker on drums. Never saw Mick Abrams on lead guitar though. The band has had some outstanding musicians over the years. First heard them on Stand Up, then bought Benefit and then kept on going.
I saw Tull 4 times in the 70s at COBO in Detroit and was never disappointed. Out of the many concerts i've seen, JT wins hands down. And for that , i thank you. Peace
Omg good yes! Good old combo hall! I was there. Magical times
What band these days is able to achieve this level of magnificence? Awesome and under looked!
Clive & Glen Forever 🤘❤🤘
Amen!
Band has soul!
This group was so tight. Being able to shift gears like this and deliver so much energy into a performance like this.
Saw then 2x. Filmore East awesome! Ian was quite the showman!
Ian Anderson is something else!!!
With Glenn on Bass, the Best Jethro Tull Formatione ever❤
Totally agree
I was too young to appreciate in the day , but now ...wow. lyrics, musicianship simply pure genius .
Now old age is the price we pay for having been there when it was new.
Well said Cindy! I totally agree! Brilliant musicians!
@@robschultz7 naah! i think those are one of the weaker Lyrics by JT. My God is a superb one. But the musicallity from "We Used to Know" makes my heart beats faster! hahahahha The Flute and guitar solos, plus the bass line....
Absolutely one of the best bands in history
This has to be one of the greatest live concerts of all time. I too, was born way too late, but that doesn't stop me enjoying this fantastic recording now. Thanks for sharing. 🤟
Mein geliebter IAN, dieses Lied geht ganz tief unter die Haut, und bestimmt nicht nur mir! Wunderbar!
In the 70s I had a little group in Detroit, and since I play flute, we did a few Tull covers. "We Used to Know" was one of them, and we ALWAYS closed the show with "For a Thousand Mothers."
I saw the Aqualung show at Cobo Hall in Detroit, and really it was about the most perfect rock show I ever attended.
Listening to them live like this, it is obvious these gents spent thousands of hours practicing, & perfecting their music.
They're so tight, in time with each other, & sound better live than 94.7% of all other bands do in the studio!
TERRIBLY underrated!!!!!!!
@Guitar Woodshed with Derek Roland ^^TRUTH!!!^^
I figured 95.2%, but you were close!
@haskellbob HHhhhhmmmmmm, yes.
You might be on to something here good fellow. Perhaps a reaclaculation, & the addition of a 2nd Klipsch subwoofer on the other side of my couch is in order.
Alas, good music is abound!
Stand Up is essential.
One of the only if not the only band that was better live then on the record. And the records were great.
Remember this like it was yesterday! It was a mere fifty years ago this month.
1971 Dania Beach Florida Aqualung tour . Fan ever since Ian rocks!!
Unbelievable, saw them at Nottingham Boat Club, 1968? still good now!
I've long thought that the Eagles couldn't be able to compose such a sorrowful melody.Eagles is a group of Take it easy, peaceful easy feeling.
Imagine hearing this live, and knowing that Jimi Hendrix is coming on right after. What an amazing time.
And a time I'm glad my parents were pro-life and I was alive to experience this once in the history of mankind this magical time! thank god, my mom and dad!
Best compliment I ever got, Tampa FL, 1971, fourteen yrs. young -- "Man, you look like the Aqualung cover," referring to my growing good crop of auburn, disheveled, naturally.
are you going bald now??
That is a good one. I looked more like the Songs from the Wood dude. Still do, make you feel much better
Whoever the hell posted this. THANK YOU! From a Thousand Mothers!
I love the eagles but that solo gives the whole game away. The eagles are fortunate Tull is a gentleman
Agree with "The Eagles are fortunate, Till /Ian is a gentleman"
@@RemyTena don't understand, what have the Eagles got to do with it??
@@mvagusta6757 Hotel California(Eagles) is a plagiarism of We Used To Know (Tull/Anderson), they both have the same chord sequence
What Can You Say
Tull Just Brilliant 🙏❤️
Clive Bunker is a tremendously good drummer.
One of the best kick ass drummers .a favorite of mine along with anysley dunbar.too much to say I leave it for another day....
alan may Yes 😐 🦆
Oh Yes indeed.
One of the best
So underrated!!!!! Not just the songs but his stories in his drum solos!!!!!
What a true KILLER‼️
that sounds so good live. We Used To Know should've been released
When rockstars were stars. Thanks
Saw them at the Anaheim Stadium in the 70’s. Fantastic.
A whopping $15 per ticket.
Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull genius, pure genius. Just gorgeous.
This was the so song that made me fall in LOVE with Jethro Tull/ Ian Anderson as a 5year old little girl,listening to my uncle who was 16 playing his albums ✌🎶🎵🎼👍😁🙂💜❣😎
Ya, the Hotel California was later in 76
5 years old? Wow, you sound like a genius or something...:)
This is Stand up..
Jethro Tull played on 8/30/70. The Moody Blues & Jimi Hendrix also played on that day/night
GREATEST BAND IN HISTORY!! MY OPIPNION FOR "SONG OF JEFFREY,!! 3:01
Incredible performance! J.Tull is huge! Thank you for all the moments of enjoyment and comfort!
The best line up of Tull, as far as I`m concerned.
Love Tull from the first time I heard them some were in the early seventies. You either love them or you don't.
LOL, I remember seeing the Mike Douglas show on TV in the mid-seventies I think it was. The guess was Helen Gurly Brown, who I think was the editor of Cosmo or some women's magazine. She was talking about romance and one of the elements was music. She said, you want smooth romantic music for making love ... not anything like Jethro Tull ... something you can hum???
Jethro Tull being relative obscure at the time, especially to the Mike Douglas show audience, that remark had me in stitches and I still remember it. And I thought it was funny because one of the thing that stood out about Tull is how hummable some of their musical themes were. I would find myself doing something, walking, running, whatever, and a Tull melody would come to mind a lot of times.
Loved, loved ‘em... class of ‘76
Will always be the quintessential lineup in my eyes. Not that the other lineups weren't great or that the misic they put out wasn't outstanding, but this was Jethro Tull. PERIOD.
I hear you. I like the intersection era from here to Aqualung/TTAB ... everything after that is pretty much the Ian Anderson, which is great, but it's not really Jethro Tull in terms of energy and creativity. And what there is out there today is ... I don't even want to say it.
I love this era too...I still prefer the Barlow/Hammond era though, and John Glascock imo was the best bassist they ever had.
@@justgivemethetruth In the beginning albums all of it was Ian. Watch the interviews with Martin Barre. He explains how Ian did it all and took the group the way he wanted it to go. On later lp's everyone pitched in and created the songs. The band wrote the lyrics and put the music together in the studio practices.
@@AK99581
Well, maybe so; but Glenn Cornick had the most entertaining stage presence; & saying that, I am a huge Jack Bruce fan too.
@@tomp.6239 Glenn was a good player no doubt but I never really liked his whole "flower child" image, I didn't think it really fit the bands image (neither did Ian apparently).
JT is probably the best band ever
Tull was just so tight and so kickass and so freaking good! Loved this!
Hes on my top ten
L'époque des grands groupes de rock,puissance ,rythme,virtuosité,Jethro Tull fait partie des plus grands incontestablement,que j'ai découvert quand j'étais ado,c'était mes dieux,époque où les peu nombreuses radios vomissaient du Cloclo,Johny H.Tout n'était pas rose,mais aller à un concert c'était un événement attendu ,car peu nombreux,regardez le public,il écoute avec religiosité et admiration,pas de smartphone,de gens qui hurlent ,picolent,bouffent,etc...une époque que pour certaines choses je regrette
I miss the old band. But still, love all of the music.
Clive Bunker.........best Tull drummer ever! This was also the best line up.........in my opinion.........X
chocolatecowmusic yes. The best lineup!
Right. I always thought it's the right combination with Cornick and Bunker and... no keyboards. Stand up and Benefit are my favorite.
Best line up for sure.
@@fredericfournier9637 There are keys here...also Evans plays on Benefit.
Gute Nacht, liebster IAN! Du bist für mich - nach JIMI - der zweitbeste Rockstar der Welt!
NO OTHER BAND QUITE LIKE JETHRO TULL. TY LADS FOR THE HAPPY ROCKIN' D A Z E STILL ONGOING !!!
Thank you Ian, Thank you to all those great musicians in Tull, thanks for all these different influences and phases! One of these Rockbands who will stay forever, I`ll take it the Grave
We used to know will be played at the end of my funeral. The guitar solo makes me cry to this day. Utter magic, Mr Barre. Heard this on Nice enough To Eat, the Island sampler, when I was 10. Phenomenal.
@Andrzej Nah tah ni Dąbrowski 👍❤👍
Damn, what an impossible band, and Ian Anderson! IMHO maybe the greatest front man ever!
обалденное исполнение! Иэн Андерсон гений рока
THAT WAS THE BEST FORMATION OF JETHRO TULL ! AMAZING...
INCREDIBLE..
FANTASTIC..
PERFECT..
THE ALBUMS : " BENEFIT" AND "LIVING IN THE PAST " ARE MASTERPIECES.
✌😎
Jethro tull is one of my most favorite bands
he was marvelous that night...
Magic
Ian Anderson, I know you may not like hippies, but this hippie here loves you! 😍
He doesn't like Hippies? DAMN man,I didn't know that, I always thought he would cause the way he and the band dressed, I am 55 and me and ALL my Hippie friends used to groove to his MUSIC, I guess ya learn something new EVERY DAY and I am not being sarcastic, Man I honestly didn't know that 🤔✌🎶🎵🎼💜❣
Sheila Sams me neither.
Daniela BS, he’s got no reason to dislike anyone ffs.
It's like he "hates the sin, not the sinner..." LOL! Show him allegiance and he will forgive all...! :))
I don’t like geeky wankers in leather jock straps, so there!
Thank you for finding these old films!!!!!!!!!!!!
Un tornado musical;!! Increíble tanto talento y energía juntas!! Asombrosos y geniales!! 😊❤️👍
Posiblemente la banda de más perfil bajo en la historia del rock. Unos genios, Jethro.
@@diegocobo8 así es lastima que como banda no tuvieron la más grande repercusión que otras bandas si tuvieron
We Used To Know, probably my favourite ever Tull track...
One of those busy ones in 6/8 time, love it!
That drummer.....!
Their studio tapings must've been a breeze!! They're so friggin tight live!!
Killer bending/tone by Mr. Barre. Drumming is superb, as everything else really
So much energy. JETHRO TULL, truly one of my very best favorites of all time, ever.
