Off topic but I've been wanting to buy that doll in your profile pic for over a month now since I saw it in a magazine. I'll take this as a sign to go ahead and order one
I might surprised you! I don't have the time to figure it out exactly but I'm very sure that Bourree is written in the Aeolian-or-Dorian mode. That doesn't only sound very ancient Greece, it is!
@@adamjacobrogers9155 That was the Grammy people that did that. Tull didn't do it. What the Grammy people did was listen to Metallica, look at each other and go "This sucks!" and then give this new heavy metal grammy thing that they didn't really know what to do with to "some band that potheads listen to". I remember this incident well. I didn't care for Metallica, LOVED Jethro Tull, but I still thought it was bullshit to give Tull a heavy metal grammy. Shoulda gone to Iron Maiden or Twisted Sister. If Ozzy could have landed Blizzard of Ozz at this much later date, it would have been a shoo-in.
Glenn Cornick was truly a great bass player and oh so underrated. Always so musical and tasteful. This Tull lineup was the coolest band ever. Electric troubadours from the Renaissance with the original Pied Piper up front.
1977's "Songs From The Wood" was one of their best. It was medieval rock and had what could be called Pagan hymns ("Cup Of Wonder", Ring Out, Soltice Bells" and "Beltane").
At least the director knew to focus on Glenn. I had the pleasure of getting to know him briefly in the 70's when around the time Paris broke up. He came to our apt several times and was the nicest guy. I remember asking him about the bass solo on Bouree as a bass player myself. He said he had forgotten how to play it. He came over several times over the next few months and we never pushed him on anything other than, want something to drink and we'd talk shop then a ton of other things. He even got to the point where he crashed on the couch one night as it was so late and we told him to just hit the sack here. Anyway to make very long story short, that next morning we were sitting around having a bite to eat and he said to me...you know I remember every note of Bouree but got so fucking sick of every fucking bass player asking how to play it so I started telling people I had forgotten it. I apologized for having asked him when we first met those months ago. He said grab your bass and we sat down and he showed me the entire solo. Fucking blew me away. When I heard he had died in Hawaii, I like all of us was very sad but felt it a bit more as I felt privileged as hell for him hanging out and then showing me the solo that one morning at the table. Fucking great guy and a loss.
In retrospect I think Jethro Tull started its decline when Glenn left the band. They managed Aqualung without him, but after that, they lost spirit and musical direction. As a person with no personal musical knowledge myself, I could tell that Cornick was a stand-out bass player who was key to the sound of that band.
Do you happen to know what bass he actually used on the recording of Bouree? It's clearly not an EB-3. Something long scaled; a Jazz, Thunderbird something like that I'm hearing. Precision even ...
Bourree In E minor by Johann Sebastian Bach was rock'n'roll itself but what Jethro Tull created here is just mind blowing - musicians who really feel and understand music are going extinct
Compare and contrast Jethro Tull and the group Focus from the Netherlands- Front man plays flute, both did instrumentals, both eclectic, both influenced by classical music, etc.
Happy Birthday Ian Anderson born on August 10, 1947. He is a Scottish musician best known for his work as the singer, flautist, acoustic guitarist and primary songwriter of British rock band Jethro Tull. He is a multi-instrumentalist who also plays harmonica, keyboards, bass guitar, bouzouki, balalaika, saxophone and a variety of whistles. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Anderson
Ian Anderson, not only a great flautist but one hell of a performer and front man. Saw them twice, 20 years apart, they were just as good 20 years later!
Ian come command an arena of 20,000 with a wave of his flute. Your right. One of the best frontmen and performers ever. To be in the audience of a Jethro Tull concert was pure magic 🎸
There’s much to be learned here. Anderson once remarked that as a teenager, he wanted to be part of the music scene that had started in the 1950s . He liked what he saw, but didn’t know exactly what part he would play ? Wasn’t much of a singer , couldn’t master the drums or guitar . So he tried a few other instruments and eventually settled on the Flute. This isn’t an easy instrument to play either or a piece of cake to reach the level of skill he did. Nonetheless, he did and with perseverance the rest is history. The lesson here is to never give up at something .

There's been a concerted effort from the top levels of the industry to de-emphasize instrumental skill. There are NO "instrumentals" riding high "on the charts" any more! Nobody gets famous anymore strictly as an instrumentalist. I'm old, (72), but that's not 100, & for about half my life there were always a few celebrity instrumentalists..and not just guitar players. That's been over for decades & it's no accident. It's a loss!
@@pyannaguy4361 I don't think there's Ever been world famous pop stars that have made solely instrumental music Ever?

But i do agree, compared todays musicians to musicians from the 90s, hell even the 2000s and back, artists at least played their own instruments, that doesen't happen today in mainstream pop music.

Al escuchar esta canción de jetro me transporto a los 60's...me eriza la piel...es una obra de arte muy adelantada para su época.... GRACIAS INGLATERRA, GRACIAS IAN ANDERSON...en México también habemos quienes sabemos de buena música.
esto fue inglaterra en su prime, pensar que entre finales de los 60s e inicio de los 70s nacieron o llegaron a su cúspide bandas como Tull, Sabbath, Zeppelin, Purple y Pink Floyd, es para volarse la cabeza. Les debemos mucho a los Ingleses.
Never mind that it's the studio version we're hearing, and multiple seconds out of sync - just watch the players... Glenn Cornick - one of the finest bass players ever. Martin B. in languid repose - blithely strumming away. Clive B. being the engine room - on a sparse but adequate kit - and ol' Ian being Ian - looking like he really IS playing both flute parts simultaneously! Man, the memories this brings back... Thank you for posting! Tre Bien! Merci!

The funniest play back i know. One flute playing live whith the sound of two, no mics for the drums, no amps for the bass and guitar and no wires betwwen them...
@@abundantYOUniverse J. S. Bach Loquitur I, Johann Sebastian Bach, musician, cantor of Saint Thomas’s School in Leipzig, being near my end, praise God for his mercies; for although I am blind so I was not always, for the Lord gave me great power among all men to sing unto His greatness; witness my works which I leave behind me. For I strove long in anguish of spirit, with my soul I battled long with the Lord’s angels, knowing it was to His glory. Though I was in darkness yet I saw Him. Though I am in darkness yet I see Him. In music I saw Him, I walked with Him before the gates of Paradise, the smooth and glowing pearl, they fled apart, I walked within and heard the music of His courts echoing, twining before Him in divine, subtle-ordered canon. In my striving with His angels too I heard songs of Zion; these I have sung with deep notes of organ and organ’s sweetness I have adored Him, with choir and strings and trumpets I have praised Him greatly, and with tenderness of oboe mourned for Him. All men know me and no man, for I went alone before Him, and strove alone. Now Lord take me, for I am blind, I am blind yet the eyes of my spirit see: the ears of my spirit hear the songs of Zion no man else heard. Now take me Lord, Bach, cantor of Thomas’ school, at my end.
I'm a bass player and this is one of the only songs I've ever learned pretty much note for note, way back when this was new. I can still play it even though I've never used it in my life.
Cada vez que disfruto al Jethro Tull recuerdo la definición que el escritor mexicano "de la onda", José Agustín, nos obsequió al afirmar esclarecido, que "el rock es la nueva música clásica". Y si ello es cierto, también lo es que, en ese rico universo sonoro, Jethro Tull vendría a ser su más pura y fina "expresión barroca". Algo así como el J. S. Bach del rock progresivo. Quién lo dude, se convencerá apenas escuche este magnífico Bourée interpretado por Jethro Tull y compuesto originalmente por Bach. Qué arreglo... ¡Gracias por subirlo!
Let me tell you. I was a fan of Jethro tull. They came to Buenos Aires in 1996 when i was in my top fanatism. I was starting studing transverse flute. But now that i know about flute... i was playing with soooooo much better sound than him in a few months of buying the instrument. Anyway i imitated him singing the notes with my voice over my playing to sound distorted. But he is not a good player. He recognized that his daughter teached him how to play some notes. I looked at his fingers and he made incorrect keys positions!!! There is no way he could be doing that so many years without anyone corrected him???? Its not that you can change the keys positions to make a note. The notes sound better in their correct positions. He always do the "F" NOTE BAD. LIKE HE IS DOING IT IN FAST PASSAGES WHEN HE IS EVEN PLAYING IT AS A LONGGGG NOTE STANDING THERE AND IT SOUNDS MUTED. Something similar he does with the little finger in his right hand to do a E he doent even press the footjoint to sound open and wide!! Any flutist will give me the reason!!! If you put your fingers as he does in an open hole flute simply the flute doesnt sound. Anyway i was a fan!! Im saying what nobody seems to appreciate. And i have red hair too!!
@@arquitectostar5714 hi... his name is Ian Anderson. the band took its name, Jethro Tull, from a major agricultural technology innovator during the British Industrial revolution.
I played this on an old record player in a cellar at a house party in Sheffield in the mid 90s and it went down well. The words at the time was "that's rad man"
This should be a roadside sobriety test. Cop hands you a flute and tells you to stand on one leg and play "Bouree" by Jethro Tull.
Love to see anyone try that, even sober.....
If you can do it you’re definitely drunk.

Yeah!

Enjoy-now in Glasgow-couple o pints n yup-The Tull yet again. Certainly improves the stress of 2024!
Can we just appreciate that the bassist is PLAYING CHORDS in his solo? Amazing!
Glen was an amazing bassist check out wild turkey his post tull band quite a few hidden gems
Pity they ain’t playing live ,bands hardly ever do in tv studios
Much easier to hold a chord with a short scale bass
So rare a Gibson Bass for such a kind of music. Great.
Wow he can bar four strings 😂
je suis étonné que je suis le seul en langue Française à faire un commentaire ce disque est génial souvenirs !!!!!
It was a perfect storm of amazingly talented musicians and a pool of inventive minds . And a sense of humour. Astounding group .
Ian Anderson the quirkiest rock and roll star for all eternity. So much great stuff early on by Jethro Tull. This is a gem.
Bach was the first rocker, 300 years ago! Tull does him justice!
51 years after ths show and it still sounds modern and necessary in this world
I totally agree !!!

Nj Osborne. I am a stage 3 colon cancer survivor, onward and upward !!! It is not an end game for anything, stay strong, stay positive, bring in all the energy that is positive and run with that, the emotions that go on while going through treatments or at the end of treatments can be intense. Fight the good fight and you will get through this, I send positive vibes to you my friend....
Hope you're doing ok...
In the same situation my friend stay strong and God bless you
Al escuchar esta canción de jetro me transporto a los 60's...me eriza la piel...es una obra de arte muy adelantada para su época.... GRACIAS INGLATERRA, GRACIAS IAN ANDERSON...en México también habemos quienes sabemos de buena música.
la canción es original de Johan Sebastian Bach
esto fue inglaterra en su prime, pensar que entre finales de los 60s e inicio de los 70s nacieron o llegaron a su cúspide bandas como Tull, Sabbath, Zeppelin, Purple y Pink Floyd, es para volarse la cabeza. Les debemos mucho a los Ingleses.
gods of rock ,,, my favo lineup,, thanks a lot Hector.
Superbe musique, que je ne me lasse pas à écouter (de plus à sa sortie en 1969 j'avais 14 ans)
Truly one of the all time great bass players. That solo is easily top 3
One of my favourites from a very underrated band.
Never mind that it's the studio version we're hearing, and multiple seconds out of sync - just watch the players... Glenn Cornick - one of the finest bass players ever. Martin B. in languid repose - blithely strumming away. Clive B. being the engine room - on a sparse but adequate kit - and ol' Ian being Ian - looking like he really IS playing both flute parts simultaneously! Man, the memories this brings back... Thank you for posting! Tre Bien! Merci!
I think the tv requested playback. But yes definitely this is the studio version. There's no one playing the 2nd flute...
Grandissima bravissima eccezionale band guidata dal bravissimo eccezionale grandissimo ian anderson splendida bellissima voce leader di questi bravissimi musicisti grandissimo eccezionale flautista e chitarrista visti a Roma molti anni fa concerto indimenticabile grazie tantissimo per le splendide emozioni che ci avete regalato con le vostre splendide canzoni ❤❤❤❤thank you so much you are wonderful ❤❤❤❤
Greatest flute rock star. Jethro Tull one of most amazing progressive rock band
@68’ Rumble Bee Stu Mackenzie bra, listen to Hot Water
never, ever have I ever heard of a better bass solo in my life. I wish it was longer.
What a collection of talent, and so well integrated, so creative.
Nostalgie , quand tu nous tiens !
The funniest play back i know. One flute playing live whith the sound of two, no mics for the drums, no amps for the bass and guitar and no wires betwwen them...
Don't know how old you are but that's the way it was done back then I am 65 so I lived through those great days
fattwat1 it was done by fooling the audience haha
Yes, it's a playback, Queen did playback on TV too, but it doesn't matter, the two of them are great bands
Playback for sure but no computer effects or post production work, only sceneries and some chomakill...
So obvious...
Who in the world would give a dislike to this track?!?! ...the fools never die
Everything about this song is amazing
Totally Rad!!!!!!!!!
Brano immortale...grandi pilastri del progressive rock e non solo...non mi stanco mai di ascoltare sti mostri sacri. 😜😘❤️
Jethro Tull is an awesome band. They are excellent live.
The stage art is just as intriguing as the music performance itself !!!
Some credit should perhaps be given to the original composer of this piece, one J S Bach. He was pretty good too.
I liked Bach till he got too commercial.
@@abundantYOUniverse J. S. Bach Loquitur
I, Johann Sebastian Bach, musician, cantor of Saint Thomas’s School in Leipzig, being near my end, praise God for his mercies; for although I am blind so I was not always, for the Lord gave me great power among all men to sing unto His greatness; witness my works which I leave behind me. For I strove long in anguish of spirit, with my soul I battled long with the Lord’s angels, knowing it was to His glory.
Though I was in darkness yet I saw Him. Though I am in darkness yet I see Him. In music I saw Him, I walked with Him before the gates of Paradise, the smooth and glowing pearl, they fled apart, I walked within and heard the music of His courts echoing, twining before Him in divine, subtle-ordered canon. In my striving with His angels too I heard songs of Zion; these I have sung with deep notes of organ and organ’s sweetness I have adored Him, with choir and strings and trumpets I have praised Him greatly, and with tenderness of oboe mourned for Him.
All men know me and no man, for I went alone before Him, and strove alone. Now Lord take me, for I am blind, I am blind yet the eyes of my spirit see: the ears of my spirit hear the songs of Zion no man else heard. Now take me Lord, Bach, cantor of Thomas’ school, at my end.
@@davidford694 wow thanks
David : yes this guy was not so bad.
Joke
More than one brother has credited Bach with being the world's first jazz musician.
Gosh, sounds just like the record. Imagine that.
Astounding!!! I had to watch this several times and each time...wow! ❤️
The perfectly timed grunts sealed the deal.
Superb musicianship throughout the band.
I love the independent direction Jethro Tull took -- they didn't bother with the repetitive boy/girl songs of the sixties
Poetic, thoughtful music, the best😎
One of the best Bass players ever ..
Glenn Cornick!
brian beller is good at technique. But no groove and no sentiment
just my opinion I also like Cliff Burton is Brian better then he was ?
Definitely Glen..
Cliff was also really good. He had more toys to play (FX) with than Glenn did back then. Totally different music, but both were great.
Bravissimi il Progressive Rock si arricchisce sempre di più di tante fusioni di generi musicali
I used to play along with my recorder in 1970. I was 16 then. Every time it this tune came on the radio I would grab my recorder and play.
This song is amazing, one classmate , a musician, told me at the time about JS Bach : "you put the back beat and you get jazz"
I'm a bass player and this is one of the only songs I've ever learned pretty much note for note, way back when this was new. I can still play it even though I've never used it in my life.
Toujours aussi bon de les entendre , même des décennies après !
Saw them in Rotterdam in the 80s and was deeply impressed by their craftsmanship. Still Artists with a capital A!
Good thing Ian made the most of his hair at that time. It looks so fabulous!! Best musician ever!!
It looks wild & crazy! I love it! Lol 👏💯😆
Btw, he is an amazing musician 🎯
Doesn't get any better than this Ian's a very talented musician
This is the stuff I grew up on......I want to cry for my kids.
When I hear the music I think of my father. He always tried to do the Ian Anderson stand on the song to impress me.
RIP Dad, i miss you so much.
This is over effing fifty years old and still gives me goosebumps!
Cada vez que disfruto al Jethro Tull recuerdo la definición que el escritor mexicano "de la onda", José Agustín, nos obsequió al afirmar esclarecido, que "el rock es la nueva música clásica". Y si ello es cierto, también lo es que, en ese rico universo sonoro, Jethro Tull vendría a ser su más pura y fina "expresión barroca". Algo así como el J. S. Bach del rock progresivo. Quién lo dude, se convencerá apenas escuche este magnífico Bourée interpretado por Jethro Tull y compuesto originalmente por Bach. Qué arreglo... ¡Gracias por subirlo!
Not only a killer flautist, but he has an awesome beard as well. Oh, and Cornick"s solo is great as well, RIP.
Ben W. The Best. Not recognised by you or others actually!?!
Don't forget the 'brows' Ben!
Let me tell you. I was a fan of Jethro tull. They came to Buenos Aires in 1996 when i was in my top fanatism. I was starting studing transverse flute. But now that i know about flute... i was playing with soooooo much better sound than him in a few months of buying the instrument. Anyway i imitated him singing the notes with my voice over my playing to sound distorted. But he is not a good player. He recognized that his daughter teached him how to play some notes. I looked at his fingers and he made incorrect keys positions!!! There is no way he could be doing that so many years without anyone corrected him???? Its not that you can change the keys positions to make a note. The notes sound better in their correct positions. He always do the "F" NOTE BAD. LIKE HE IS DOING IT IN FAST PASSAGES WHEN HE IS EVEN PLAYING IT AS A LONGGGG NOTE STANDING THERE AND IT SOUNDS MUTED. Something similar he does with the little finger in his right hand to do a E he doent even press the footjoint to sound open and wide!! Any flutist will give me the reason!!! If you put your fingers as he does in an open hole flute simply the flute doesnt sound. Anyway i was a fan!! Im saying what nobody seems to appreciate. And i have red hair too!!
Yes. I think he got better sound with bamboo flutes like in "Roots to branches"
whoa! apples and oranges!
I was lucky enough to see these guys twice in small venues in the mid 1990s. Such a dynamic group.
The entire reason I learned to play flute and many other instruments. Ian Anderson is Amazing
The tune that ran through my head for years and years.
the best band that never made it into the rock and roll hall of shame and still better than half that DID....
They were so good they won a Grammy for music they don't play......
@@newgunguy4176,... YEAH ~ REALLY FUNNY !!!
Man that brings back memories, saw them a number of times back in the day, never felt let down!
What an inredible performance by the bass player doing his solo. Love it.
i like how the drummer is actually pretending to be playing some of the time
they all do, pretending. It's quite obvious, especially when 1 flutist plays the sound of 2 flutes.
Clive Bunker definitely does not want to be there.
Itchy neck.
When I was a kid, I heard Ian Anderson described as a "one-legged pop flautist" and thought he literally had one leg.
*STEVE M., WHO IS ANDERSON?¿*
*STEVE M., ISN´T THAT JETHRO TULL, THE RIGHT LEGGED FLAUTIST¿??*
@@arquitectostar5714 hi... his name is Ian Anderson. the band took its name, Jethro Tull, from a major agricultural technology innovator during the British Industrial revolution.
@@arquitectostar5714 nice
I played this on an old record player in a cellar at a house party in Sheffield in the mid 90s and it went down well. The words at the time was "that's rad man"
Desde Cali Colombia saludos Ian un virtuoso como HAMELIM gracias por compartir esta Joya musical gran banda
That bass solo will fascinate generations to come, I hope.
These guys were great, I have never heard anyone incorporate a flute into rock like him.Blow on brother!
I could be wrong, but I think the "Moody Blues" also incorporated flute into a few of their songs.
Focus ?
Impresionante el solo de bajo de Glenn Cornick, uno de los mejores músicos de Jethro Tull
Always one of my favorites saw them live four or five times back in seventies great shows
