Ian Anderson - best performing showman in all of rock.

This is back when talent was pure. Performances were over the top. He is so fun to watch and hear.

Jethro Tull was a sight to see live!! These days I think it’s just Ian Anderson and friends, but still not to be missed!!

You have to listen to whole 45 minute album complete Ian's lyrics are what really drew me and Martin is a highly underated guitarist

Nice job. Thanks for actually letting Ian sing without interrupting every 2 seconds like some others do.

You ask if Jethro Tull was influenced by Monty Python. Yes, and vice versa. Tull was one several bands to help fund the film “Monty Python And The Holy Grail”!

Thick As A Brick is still my all time favorite album. It just shows what a musician can do when they aren't worried about radio play (or Spotify today, I suppose). Poetry, experimentation, and great musicianship.

VOTE for Jethro Tull in the Rock and Roll Hall of fame!!!

Ian is the greatest all around rocker of all time! As a matter of fact, no one is even close!

I ran out of breath sitting on my couch watching Ian.

McCartney, Lennon, Harrison, Anderson,Barre, Jon Anderson, Squire, Howe, Townsend, Daltrey, Rafferty, Clapton, Winwood, Clapton , Peter Green, and so many others were a golden age of modern British music. The list could go on and on, but you get the idea. I consider myself lucky to have been alive for it.

Fun fact: in an interview Ian explains why he stands on one leg. In early shows he simply would have to use the restroom and would cross his legs to hold it. And it became what he was known for so he kept it. Also, he chose flute because he heard Eric Clapton and realized he wouldn’t be that good and the flute was different and what he could afford so he got it and the rest is history

Jan Anderson is the pure wild music himself

@lifelover515 4 years ago

So insightful, Beth. You touched on many aspects of Ian's multifaceted prowess as a performer - the breath control, the self-projection, the dynamics, the lyricism, the theatricality, the sheer virtuosity of his playing and not least, the incredible energy and athleticism - no high-tech laser light shows necessary when Ian Anderson strides to the mike. His moves remind me of a trained ballet dancer. More than one classical flautist/reactor has been gobsmacked by his technique. Not bad for someone with a fairly limited vocal range. And Jethro Tull, exemplary musicians all, stay right with him all the way. Thanks for covering this masterpiece of prog. rock

Thick as a Brick, despite the antics is a super deep song, my favorite Tull song.

Ian Anderson- Songwriter, singer, composer, guitar, flute tamborine, bandleader, dancer! But... don't ignore the amazing musicians surrounding him!

I’ve followed Jethro Tull since 1972, I fell in love with Ian Anderson listening to Thick as Brick. He had so much energy but had so much breath left to play the flute! As a former singer I can really appreciate that. There’s no one like him. It’s so devastating that his vocal cords are damaged, and he has severe asthma plus other throat problems I’ve heard.

I saw Jethrow Tull in concert October 1971 at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Anderson was spectacular...a wonderful entertainer. The backup group was Wild Turkey. They featured a woman who played an electric violin. Great memories!
