Do not be surprised about the close-ups. Coming from the video walls next to the stage, this video is not a standard video recording of a Jethro Tull concert, but these recordings are a priceless contemporary document of one of the most fantastic live bands of our century. so be thankful ... like me ... !!

I was at this concert. I was 19 years old. I'm going to be 65 in two weeks. This great band and their music still hold up beautifully.
-
I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.
-
Now I am almost 71 years old and have still been enthusiastic about this legendary group and their music for over 50 years
-
lets not forget Martin, his guitar sound was one of the best he really did make this band rock
-
Let's face it: when you see an entertainer coming down the backstage tunnel looking like Shakespeare in a Harlequinn costume, you know the show is going to be absolutely fantastic.
-
How many of today's performers can put on a show like this? The flute solos are beyond belief. mad genius.
-
I've seen Jethro Tull about six times and I am still in awe of the creativity, musicianship, songwriting and showmanship. They have it all.
-
It doesn't get any better than that.Jethro Tull ruled the 70's.
-
The fact that they could play Thick As A Brick close to the album version when live is a testament to how good they were.
-
The amount of energy it takes to do a show is staggering. To do a play is hard enough. But Anderson is the center of attention for the whole concert. And he really pumps energy into it. A force of Nature.
-
Tull needs to be in the Rock & Roll hall of fame
-
Ah, the minstrels of my youth. What an awesome band. Wow, words and music with substance. What a beautiful concept. I miss these guys.
-
Now that, kids, Is a PERFORMANCE. Great music by great musicians.

I saw the Aqualung Tour Concert in Phoenix in '72 and LOVED it. Tull is one of the few bands who sound as good live as they do on a studio album. When Ian stopped playing his flute to sing, he tossed it up 2 stories, sang the verse, then stuck his hand out behind him to catch the flute and play the next notes, sight unseen. Wow, definite force of nature and showman extraordinaire.

I LIVED for Jethro Tull and I still have my old original albums. My bedroom wall was plastered with Ian Anderson posters lol. So lucky to see them numerous times in the greatest years, the 70s, at Madison Square Garden when the rafters were filled with weed & we brought in wineskins slung over our shoulders filled with Boone's Farm Apple Wine. He was and still is mesmerising. I feel 15 years old again. Well, I always feel 15 years old lol.

I saw Tull twice back in the 70's but my first concert after the pandemic was over, l saw Martin Barre do the entire album "Aqualung " and his Encore was the song" Teacher ",which is one of my favorites. I've been going to concerts since I was 15yrs old, l'm 67 now and still going to concerts, til the day I die 🤟🥰🎶

I can't believe this was captured on film and is on YouTube. I was there just out of High School at this exact concert. Ian Anderson walked out under the big screen that no one had ever seen before, and said " Welcome to Tullavision." The stadium went NUTS!! I can't believe I can sit in my living room 41 years later and watch, thank you to old technology with professional cameras, and modern with the net. Great thanks to Tull and the poster that uploaded it. Unfrigginbelievable!
-
Why Martin is not universally recognized as being among the top guitarists ever is beyond me.
-
My brother mimicked him on flute...but the greatest fluteist ....Ian. My brother since has passed away, and he ( bless him) gave me my first Jethro Tull album...I loved it.
-
