Jethro Tull are a British progressive rock band formed in 1967. The group’s founder Ian Anderson plays flute & acoustic guitar & is the lead singer & quite a showman. They've had a lot of different members over the years. They had a lot of great songs such as "Thick As A Brick", "Aqualung", "Living In The Past", "Songs From The Wood", "A New Day Yesterday", "Cross-Eyed Mary", "Bungle In The Jungle", "Sweet Dream", "Life’s A Long Song" etc.

A lot of people think HIS name is Jethro Tull, but his name is Ian Anderson. Jethro Tull is the group’s name. I might be wrong but I think Ian Anderson did a part in the album Jesus Christ Superstar. I might be wrong.

Concert floutists are always amazed at Ian's abilities on the flute. He does a perfect flutter tongue as they call it. He can also sing while playing the flute which just blows them away.

This was an encore. The song Locomotive breath morphed into "Land of Hope and Glory" (when he launched the balloon into the audience, and then finished by morphing into the last verse of another Tull song "Back Door Angels" which was probably sung before Locomotive breath and this verse would probably have been a reprive of that song. Jethro Tull started in 1968 and Ian Anderson is still writing albums and touring with his band to this day. They are still a staple of the many classic rock radio channels, and there are hundreds of classic Tull songs to choose from. Their live shows are legendary for their showmanship, musicianship, and length. Since 1971 I have seen them over 35 times and have never been disappointed. Rock on.

[@KathyLuluandDonna]

Thanks for the information.

[@johncooper5124]

Remembering how they once portrayed themselves as the Roadies during the final stage set-up. With increasingly outlandish movements the audience realized it was them; they bowed arm-in-arm to a standing ovation. They then played a 45-minute version of Thick As A Brick. And when Anderson said "For our second song"' the crowd erupted for the third time.

[@vicprovost2561]

Saw him around a dozen times, the best times both in Springfield in the early/mid 70s, once in the front row just feet from Ian and Martin, they were extraordinary in those 70s shows, when I heard Stand Up and Benefit I knew they were great, Aqualung made them stars. Tull Forever!

[@markdraine3571]

Wow .Quite a fan .I saw the tour with the spacesuits in KC in late 80..The only other time was as a special guest when The Who played Boulder in 82. It was kind of a understated, acoustic set .

[@dynjarren8355]

Man could they play! This kind of musicianship is gone now. These guys were virtuosos.

[@AJfanboy1]

Another favorite of Jethro Tull is "Aqualung". Interesting trivia fact, Ian Anderson the lead singer and self taught flutist, was originally a guitar player, but when another guitar player was hired and he was better than Ian, he decided that maybe he should play another instrument. He went to a pawn shop to trade in his guitar and find another instrument. The only other instrument he could afford was the flute, and the rest as they say, is history.

[@jmace1957]

He was a self-taught flautist. When his daughter learned the flute, she told him he was doing it all wrong. He re-learned how to play the right way.

The name of the group was Jethro Tull. They named the band after the 18th century British Agriculturalist who revolutionized agriculture by inventing the first seed drill. The lead singer, flutist and song writer, was Ian Anderson. They were very well known for their progressive rock, theatrical shows and light shows. I saw them in the late 70’s when I high school age. They were a great show.

[@lovnlite]

Jethro Tull's "Aqualung" is one of my favs

[@RichFrye]

[@robertcoates6800]

A little trivia, the guy playing the flute and singing, Ian Anderson's daughter is married to Andrew Lincoln, the guy that played Rick on The Walking Dead.

[@nycbigbear]

If no one made it totally clear in the comments, Jethro Tull isn't a person - it's the name of the band. They were named by their history major agent after an eighteenth century English agricultural pioneer who invented the seed drill, for no reason.

[@Musicmanrobert]

Thank you for your reaction. Jethro Tull is a British Band the flutist and lead singer is Ian Anderson. I had the chance to see him in concert with the Chieftains. I was a big fan of Jetro Tull.

[@Qkano]

Jethro Tull - buried at Lower Basildon - (1674-1741) was an agriculturalist renowned for the invention of a seed drill. He gave the name to the band but otherwise gave nothing else to the music.

[@bryanirvine6169]

This is the era of showmanship in bands - it was about the MUSIC and the stage presence. Jethro Tull, The Who, and later in the 70s prog bands like Kansas with Steve Walsh and Robbie Steinhardt who electrified crowds. Ian Anderson had a HUGE stage presence and was extremely charismatic - he always had the audience eating out of his hands.

[@anonymous19844]

Jethro Tull is the name of the group. The leader, singer, & flutist is Ian Anderson who is now 76. You don't know them because they peaked in the late '60s/early '70s.

[@KathyLuluandDonna]

Thanks for the information.

[@vernhoke7730]

Jethro Tull is the name of the band and the persona of Ian Anderson the lead singer. This is off their album "Aqualung" from the early seventies. They are a progressive rock band. I had this record way back in high school.

For awhile, back in the 70's, Jethro Tull were the biggest band in the world, especially in the States. The name of the singer/flautist is Ian Anderson, even though the group is called Jethro Tull.

[@lawyeredup]

Best concerts I ever saw were Jethro Tull, 3 times in the early 1970s. I saw the Aqualung, Thick as a Brick and War Child tours. Unbelievable. The venues were relatively small (2 at 7000 attendees and 1 at the old Boston Garden).

[@anway1953]

Lulu you should show your friend who plays the flute Ian's style of playing flute! I seen Jethro Tull about 10 times in concert and they are outstanding performers, and Ian Anderson is one of Rock's most animated and talented front men. He composes all of the music and is a multi-instrumentalist. I suggest anything from Jethro Tull's "Songs from the Wood" Album!

[@ricenglish4556]

Flautist, singer and Acoustic guitar player, Ian Anderson and lead guitarist, Martin Barre, were the mainstays of the band and were together for over 40 years. Others came and went, but Ian and Martin were always there producing that inimitable Tull sound. My all-time favorite band. A Tull concert back in the 70's was an experience.

[@bryanirvine6169]

There is a great interview with Ian Anderson on the 25th anniversary re-release of Aqualung regarding this song. He could not get the rest of the band to understand what he was looking for on this song, so he ended up having to have each one of them lay down their parts individually, and none of them knew what the end product would sound like, accept him, until it was mixed and played for them. It was contrived on the spot, but ended up being such a great live song.

When I went to concerts back in the 70's, San Francisco Bay Area. There was always big beach balls or big balloons bouncing around the crowd. I still go to concerts but haven't seen such in decades.?!

[@JamesJoy-yc8vs]

The Balloons became a big *BIG* thing to look forward to, when seeing Tull. As the video showed, during the encore instrumental Ian Anderson - the crazy-eyed flute guy - would throw these big balloons out into the audience (sometimes they even had that tour's logo printed on them, collector's items now!). And then, when there were 3-4 balloons bouncing around and the spotlights were illuminating them, *then* they'd start their Big Ending Crescendo. And it was like we, in the audience, were members of the band. Our instrument was the Balloons! Seeing Jethro Tull live is, truly, a unique experience!

[@bobmessier5215]

"My God" is my favorite Jethro Tull song.

[@LewDanLascivious8276]

Anyone who knows anything about Jethro Tull like me because I have their whole musical library which is very extensive, knows that Jethro Tull is one of the most technically sound progressive rock bands of all time. Jethro Tull's had many hits on the radio back in the 60s and 70s.

[@YumYumClownMonkey]

Jethro Tull - the man - was actually a specialist and inventor in plant breeding that invented the Seed Drilling Machine in England in the 17th century

[@neshobanakni]

One of Anderson's fingers on his right hand is malformed. He had to learn to play differently from other people - And he did it while in the rock band. One of my favorite songs is their "Skating Away on the Thin Ice of a New Day."

[@JamesJoy-yc8vs]

I've heard it's his pinky-finger; he can't do what classical flautists do, which is like, press on that last key on the foot-piece. Apparently it only makes a difference when playing in D# or something like that, but classically-trained flautists notice immediately

[@tobytanzer]

The original Jethro Tull was an "English agriculturist from Berkshire who helped to bring about the British Agricultural Revolution of the 18th century." (from Wiki) The band took his name. They have an excellent repertoire with influences from blues, folk, rock, jazz and classical. Many consider them in the progressive rock genre.

[@johncoulombe833]

I saw Jethro Tull in concert at the Los Angeles Forum in 1973, the second of a 3-day concert series. The band is fronted by Ian Anderson, who is the vocalist, flutist and guitarist. This is an important band with a unique style.

[@JamesJoy-yc8vs]

Wasn't that David/Daisy Palmer enthusiastically crashing the cymbals? This would be about the time they were an official member of the band, with Glascock on bass & all

[@dunringill1747]

You are going to want to react to as much Jethro Tull as possible - both studio and live versions. With Tull, you won't find many popular songs. Instead you will find hidden gem after hidden gem on so many masterpiece albums. Frontman Ian Anderson is a multi-Instrumentalist and a self taught genius who writes the music. He also surrounds himself with incredible talent. Anderson is also arguably rocks finest rock live show frontman in history. He brings theatrics, wit, athleticism, intelligence, and a lot of tongue-in-cheek spice to his live performances. I've seen Tull 26 times in concert and that was not nearly enough. Try their live version of "Thick As A Brick" (1977, London) next. I would say the 1978 Madison Square Garden version, but that one often gets copyright struck on YT. The studio version is their entire 5th album (1972 release) but this live version has been edited down for time. Ian is suffering from a cold in this performance but you wouldn't know it unless you are used to seeing him healthy and more energetic.

The singer/flautist is Ian Anderson. The name of the band is Jethro Tull. They were named after an actual historical figure, Jethro Tull, an English agricultural pioneer...(I think Ian might have been an avid gardener)...They were contemporaries of bigger bands that everyone knew like Zeppelin and Pink Floyd but their audience was people who dug a little deeper, fans of bands like Emerson, Lake and Palmer and early Genesis...

[@JamesJoy-yc8vs]

Apparently, when they were starting out they'd appear under different names (the Blades, the Smash, etc.) to fool venues into booking them again, thinking they were a different band. "Jethro Tull" was the name they were performing as when a record exec signed them. Then their first (and only) single with that label was attributed to "Jethro *TOE* "! They quickly signed with Chrysalis Records instead, and surviving copies of that *first* record are now priceless!

JT was one of a handful of bands -- along with Yes, ELP, MoodyBlues, and KingCrimson -- that were at the forefront of progressive music in the late 60s thru the 70s. Each of these bands had their niche, and JT was special in their look (kind of ranging from medieval to homeless hippie), their theatricality, ability to fashion "concept albums" (at least ThickAsABrick and PassionPlay, if not more lps), and a frontman as performative&talented as Ian Anderson.

Jethro Tull is probably most famous in the US for "Aqualung". The whole album us great. Ian Anderson has produced outstanding music his entire career.
