Drummer reacts to "A New Day Yesterday" & "Jeffery Goes to Leicester Squaure" by Jethro Tull

This video also contains "Round" and "Bourée" but I couldn't fit it in the title lol! Did the very last track off of This Was and then the first three from Stad Up. What an entrance from Martin... That riff is CRAZY lol. Bouree did not go the way I thought it would.... Jeffery feels like an Aqualung "interlude" and I thought it was beautiful.

Stand Up is a masterpiece

[@RedPillMode]

Yes it is.

[@MissAstorDancer]

100% It's on the same level (for me) as "The Yes Album".💥🔥

[@Gminor7]

100% , and so is Benefit

[@RedPillMode]

@@Gminor7 Yes it is. I am not saying, they are the two best albums of JT, but they are the two I love the most.

[@SANPARR1]

@@Gminor7 Of course.

[@axandio]

A New Day Yesterday! What a blistering Blues Rock tune!

[@timwestcott361]

Exactly what Joe did to it .. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4jbXmacnqxqo80

[@Linda-y9h]

I love this album. ❤😊

[@ddthor]

Me too!❤

[@corawheeler9355]

That persistant riff of New Day and Ian's take on Bach ... love me some Tull

[@lindaulloa4786]

A New Day Yesterday reminds me of Cream! I love the song Nothing is Easy from this album!

[@hoppers13]

The master flute-dancer has just turned 77. May the gods bless and protect him.

[@robertlear2712]

I went to see a concert in 1969 where there were three new acts that I had never heard of Jethro Tull was one of those acts. They opened their act with Nothing is Easy. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing and seeing. The other two acts were Fleetwood Mac and Joe Cocker. We kind of walked out of the concert in a daze.

[@lisavalentine8877]

OMG, you were SO fortunate to have seen that line up! Who was headlining?? I saw Tull (several times) and Fleetwood Mac (twice); never got to see Joe Cocker live.

[@lizze490]

How exciting- that sounds like an electrifying experience ✨🎆🎇

[@ddthor]

This is when they found their voice. I saw them in a HS gym in Phoenix in May of 1970 (around the time of Kent State). They were magnificent.

[@arizrich]

My favorite Tull album!

[@vicprovost2561]

Stand Up, Benefit and Aqualung are all amazing albums, Tull ascending to greatness by Thick as a Brick. Keep going on Stand Up, the first album I ever smoked a joint to in 1971. Awesome stuff, Enjoy. 🔥🎵🎸🎤🎸🎹🎻🎷🎶🔥

[@mickell241]

my favorite tull album. rock with a master flutist. who would have thought? so good.... stand up!

[@SeaMark782]

I was 13 and we were loving this. We were outliers among our peers at the time, Traffic, Cream, 10 Years After, Blind Faith, Canned Heat and Jethro.

[@alvillanueva2525]

The original vinyl version of this album would open up and the bandmembers would pop out of the album. Hence "Stand Up".

[@lizze490]

Yeah, I had that album- excellent

[@Humb7757]

It’s A new day of Gorgeous Yesterday’s Jethro Tull fabulous Album!! ❤

[@stuBdoc]

The big change from This Was to Stand Up was the loss of Mick Abraham, the original guitarist and writer, and the addition of Martin Barre. Ian Anderson took over all creative/writing, so the band became strictly his musical vision. And how lucky we are!

[@stuBdoc]

As to Bouree, Bouree in E minor is a Bach piece that every student classical guitarist learns. Ian Anderson says that there was such a student in an apartment near his and he heard him practicing this over and over. He took the piece and jazzed it up and interpreted it for rock band and flute. Absolutely brilliant. Listen to the Bach piece sometime.

[@shemanic1]

It was a A New Day Yesterday but a better day now you have reacted to these epic Tull tunes from Stand Up, 1969, again. Glad you enjoyed them. By the way it is pronounced as Lester Square, now-a-days.

[@-R.Gray-]

Guitarist Joe Bonamassa used to play "A New Day Yesterday" live. 2 other rocky songs on the album are "Nothing Is Easy" and "For A Thousand Mothers" .

[@nyrocks5580]

I saw him when he opened for Tull in 2000. Great concert.

[@Hartlor_Tayley]

Wonderful

[@dominicschaeffer909]

You’ll notice in the woodcut cover that Ian has 6 fingers on his left hand. On the back woodcut Ian waves goodbye with proper number of fingers. ;)

[@robinreiley1828]

From "Stand Up" through "Benefit" to "Aqualung" you can easily track how the band members musical skills have improved. By "Thick as a Brick" they were ready for just about Anything!

[@marckusel5602]

I forgot how much I missed this song 🎇

[@dawntucker5052]

Can't wait to hear the rest with you.

[@lizze490]

I would dance to A New Day Yesterday in a long slinky dress- I LOVE it ❤ Loved this album since its release.

[@sharondavid-melly1498]

Think this is my favorite!

[@genegarrett3372]

Isn't it strange. This is more than 50 -years-old but doesn't sound all that old. But when we were around in the 60s or 70s and some 50-year-old music came on you could really tell its age.

[@mikeloomis687]

You are "the man" for diving into Stand Up. Album is downloaded on my car's Spotify.

[@scotstevens5263]

You could call Jeffery, whimsical. This was (excuse the pun) our first Tull Lp in the family record collection. Ha, I like going back to the family.

[@neonpark1874]

I see what you did there.

[@huskytully3887]

Let me describe Mister Ian Scott Anderson in two words: MUSICALL PROGRESS 🙏🏻

[@whaleoilbeefhooked62]

Gday Lee,some of the vietnam vets i knew back in the day really got into Tull,i never could but after hearing these tracks,i might try listening with the older ears i have now.

[@dekk640]

Stand up is far and away the best Tull album in my humble opinion. Strange story, my fist job was with a Civil Engineer Consultancy in London as a trainee computer operator. I was a fresh faced eighteen year old and the secretary took me under her wing. I had been working there for about six months and happened to mention that I was going to the Albert Hall to a concert. She replies "oh my son is there too this evening" I said so he likes Jethro Tull too !. No she says, he plays bass in the band I was speechless, held her in absolute awe from there on. A great concert Procol Harum and Tir na Nog supporting, isn't life strange though.

[@L33Reacts]

that is so wild. what a story lol that is hilarious. life is certainly strange, my friend. funny how things work out like that

[@RayEvans-j1q]

Great song from a great album! There are many generations of Tull fans! Some are Aqualung fans while others are Songs From the Woods fans! I’m a Stand Up fan!

[@Coquinagirl]

Quite a variety… It’s good that you go for what you love.

[@jimglenn6972]

I love all these songs but please continue the album reviews. My favorite is Songs from the Wood. I fell in love with Jethro Tull after hearing that album!

[@shiannesmith6877]

I'm learning Tull with you. This was really good! ❤

[@Tullthedayidie]

Keep it going brother, enjoying this ride with you!

[@AndreBlige-vb3ur]

Stand Up is Tull's most fun album

[@CharCanuck14]

My favourite Tull album! I read that the album cover was a woodcarving done by a Connecticut man.

[@mikeross14]

All those Faces,figures Stood up as cut-outs when you opened the cover of the album! Favorite Tull album!

[@irmaoksanen6830]

I just realized they sound like Cream or maybe Cream sounds like Tull. Odd time signature on the first song. They do have a medieval or Renaissance vibe. Flute on two channels, left and right!

[@TA-zk7lr]

Love Tullesdays!🤘 You should totally check out the bonus tracks "Living in the Past" and "Sweet Dreams" from the same album. "Living in the Past" is one of their most popular songs, you'll love it!

[@johncollier9280]

How right you are my bright little star...Jethro Tull Rules O.K.!

[@nyrocks5580]

Stand Up is one of the best albums ever, by any band. Be sure to listen to the 2001 remastered version bonus tracks, too.

[@billhawkins1236]

I remember it well. I was in the Army when this came out. Oddly, my first exposure to Tull was Aqualung, so I had to work backwards a little. But I remember coming home on leave and going to friend's houses where this album would be playing while they were furiously breaking up a brick of weed, and making " Nickel Bags "😂😂😂

[@Thirdwind2]

This song is also included in that live Album I've already recommended you ... "Bursting Out" . Great guitar solo and Great great flute solo!

[@rodneygriffin7666]

When you opened up the album it was a Pop Up book in the center. Album art in the 60's and 70's were Amazing and part of the experience along with the music within. That's what is missing from the Streaming experience.

[@stuBdoc]

If you enjoyed Jeffrey Goes to Leicester (Lie-ster) Square, you'll get a kick out of Fat Man, the track after Nothing Is Easy, played on a balalaika, with very tongue-in-cheek lyrics. Every song on this album, and the next one, Benefit, is a gem.

[@johnclibbens6803]

Lester…

[@thescrewfly]

Geez.....

[@RedPillMode]

Fat man, one of my favourites. A bit silly, but still.

[@yes_head]

This and 'Benefit' are pretty much all you need. Maybe 'Aqualung' and 'Living in the Past' as well.

[@garyrosenberg3369]

After 55 years the first three albums remain my favorites. I can listen through the complete albums of Stand Up and Benefit and just float away. BTW: you should listen to Joe Bonamassa's version of New Day Yesterday.

[@thescrewfly]

I wonder if you can see the actual "stand-up" (pop-up) inside the LP gatefold sleeve in the online version? Hope so. It was a surprising thing at the time.

[@-R.Gray-]

If it wasn't for Ian Anderson's rock flute influence, there probably wouldn't be an Anchorman Ron Burgundy flute scene.

[@emilymartinez6961]

If you were lucky enough to play the flute back in the days, you were sure to learn to play this song....for sure ✌️🎶

[@patrickkaltner8554]

Jeffery is about Jeffery Hammond Hammond, Tull's 2nd bassist

[@CliffordLake]

It's new day today.

[@jthaw]

For comparison's sake you might want to listen to the classical guitarist John Williams playing that same Bach Bouree. Ian Anderson jazzed it up...which Bach surely would have appreciated!

[@lynnieiapichino1121]

☮️💙doing a great job!

[@diamonddavefuller6136]

U rock too L33

[@robertjewell9727]

Here's the original Bourse. I believe Bach originally wrote it for flute, harpsichord, viola and violin, but it's most mostly interpreted as a piece for classical guitar: At some point since you have a lot of Tull under your belt that you listen to the live album BURSTING OUT (1978). Their version if A New Day Yesterday knocks it out of the park and even if you don't know every song it's well worth listening to. There are even pieces written strictly for the concert venue like CONUNDRUM by Martin Barre, a killer instrumental featuring a killer Barlow drum solo. kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4GxemV5eJWebKMsi=AUFmPR1mRqC6G7oO

[@puncht37]

Bourre is a cajun card game down here.

[@SupernalOne]

New Day Yesterday is a blues-based valse macabre; "Leicester" is slurred into "Lester" -- like "St. John" is slurred into "Sinjon". From this point on, with the new guitarist Martin Barre, the band veered strongly into progressive folk rock and away from blues. The third album Benefit has a really well-integrated sound, they added a pianist and were heavy into prog-rock compositions

[@huskytully3887]

Geoffrey goes to 🗣️ L A S T E R Square , 🗣️ Boorrée

[@patrickkaltner8554]

Ian has 11 fingers on the album cover. Artist was stoned

[@ElisaMcGowan]

Nice tracks Lee. By the way, it is pronounced 'Lester Square'!)

[@hwinker]

The first great Tull record! (Sorry 'This Was' fans -- but c'mon.)

[@gold98gtp]

To me Jethro Tull has their own genre, similar to Rush.

[@genegarrett3372]

pronounce it like saying Lester Square

[@GeoffCB]

Except Ian purposely mispronounces it as "Leester" because apparently Jeffrey did for some reason.

[@jamessomers8808]

Liseater? Ly Cheshire.🙏 Leicester that was a microphone so I just pronounced it so give me a minute. Lol. Liesester

[@elskid206]

Those two were NOT "LITERALLY" on fire.

[@PetrNielsn]

Try to listen to Bouree the Johann Sebastian Bach way. Music from the baroque era rocks too.

[@tommy8058]

Leicester = Lester.😉

[@L33Reacts]

lester. really. good god. its that??

[@tommy8058]

@@L33Reacts yeah. Greetings from Germany. 🙂

Its pronounced lester square 👍

[@Silence_doGood1776-h4v]

Is "square" misspelled?

You'd have to ask any Englishman why, but Leicester Square is pronounced "Lester Square".

Lester goes to Jeffrey Square.
