Jethro Tull - Living In The Past (Supersonic, 27.03.1976)

[@fbpliegorrivero8869]

68 years old here, been listening since a teenager. Time has past too quickly. I would prefer living in the past.

[@tinokuranicholas6735]

It was a very long while before any of how music was accessed in NŹ. The '60's had only the ' vinyl ' and the ' wireless ' radio broadcasts. I heard Jethro Tull for the first time with a song off their first album ( cover of a caricature of Ian Anderson) around '68-'69. And the Group then released Benefit in 1970 and after Aqualung was released I could not sustain buying albums . The album record releases were too many to keep up. Thick as a Brick didn't do anything for me at all . Jethro Tull had come to play. It was a 1971 concert at The Auckland City Town Hall and my interest was rekindled. Two items that were memorable and the ' showbiz ' thrill was the Pianist. I'm vague with the chaps name ( Evans? ) and He was loose. He would walk to and fro, after which many times, He then climbs onto the upper top of the piano and sit Himself whilst He ' tap the keys with both His feet. The piano man was having a party and He wanted everyone to join the merriment. No need of jestering as from when the piano man started, the show went into overdrive when the stage platform was bathed in a " strobe " Northern lights concert extravaganza. Suffice. Para te 'ika o Tangaroa . fish...

[@christopherarnett2851]

The Hall of Fame is pathetic and useless.

[@javierllerena5756]

Jethro Tull is at the top of progressive rock bands , the RRHF is below any level of good music , is pure fake and garbage . The fact to have inducted artists as Madona which is not rock music demonstrates that RRHF is an organization for commercial artists not for progressive rock bands .

[@XanAxDdu]

you american people are too much proud of your association. maybe because your kind of capitalism is afraid and missing real social istances. and also your lifestyle. have your good guns bravi !!!!!

[@4570duplex]

Hmm... I'm an American. I grew up with Jethro Tull - my very first concert ever was when they were is Seattle touring Aqualung. I was twelve years old, my buddy told his mom he was going to my house and I told mine I was going to his before we snuck downtown on the bus. I have not missed a Seattle show since. I own everything they have ever recorded. And by God, if they ever lower themselves to allowing the RRHF to include them, it will be a sad day indeed. RRHF may well one day wake up and realize they need Tull if they ever hope to attain to legitimacy. Tull already realize they don't need the RRHF... if that day ever comes, I hope they do the right thing and politely refuse.

Nicely written.

[@wagnermaia9740]

I'm so happy to liten to Jethro tull, the best.band in the world.

[@martincox7354]

I agree with Devon’s sentiments. Although I wonder if some many of us were just naive in a way that I haven’t seen in the following generations. They have been so much more cynical at the outset; thinking that nothing can change. For us, a better world seemed possible but we were betrayed and betrayed ourselves. How many of us allowed ourselves to be sucked into the establishment in all its forms? We all decided that we needed our own houses; we needed white goods and we needed nice cars. None of those are wrong but what we had to do in order to get those material goods was to leave our conscience behind. Those few who didn’t have my admiration. I now accept that the world is led by dictators such as Putin, multi nationals and financiers. Politicians are the puppets of some or all of those. Regardless of affiliation, I would suggest that there are only two types of politicians. One is the type using politics to build their own empire or fortune; the other is deeply unintelligent.

[@martincox7354]

@William HELLHASEYIS for sure, you are entitled to your opinion. I’d like to think that I could be defined as mid-life. If that’s the case, I am going to live until I’m over 130. I could ask you to explain how you define mid life crisis and it’s relevance to my comment; but, truthfully, Your reply has shown me that I would not be interested in your reply. But, maybe for others, my reply was my experience of what Devon alluded to (the halcyon days of an unlimited future) and how I believe it was never going to happen. I have become cynical about leadership and change but that cynicism is only borne out of my life experience which includes being MD of a business employing some 3,500 people. So, I am not an idealist or someone who hasn’t betrayed themselves with power. If you just want to enjoy the music, then great and don’t read the comments. If you think that listening to the music is the only thing that matters and that nobody, including musicians, should have strong social views and espouse them, then I’m sorry for you. I said nothing personally derogatory about any individual and, unlike you, alluded nothing derogatory to any individual. I described my views in a non-political party way. I encourage peace, love and tolerance. You should try it. Go and be happy. I am

I grew up on Tull in the 70's, and this has always been one of my favorite of their songs. John Evan steals the show!

[@javier.zelada]

The Tull's fans around the world are very happy watching this kind of 70' TV videos. I never thought I would see them!

[@Fredconley]

Class of 73. What a life it’s been. Sometimes you have to live in the past. Just a little

[@dragutinlusicic1257]

1975 Jethro tull were in Zagreb (Croatia), I was exactly 20 years old then. I'm 68,5 now and I still get chills when I listen to them. A fantastic band, music, costumes and that one British melody from the era of King Arthur is intertwined in every song. Fantastically

2024. Bring back real musicians and singers with talent who aren't controlled.

[@geoffjoffy]

This record is timeless

[@petermasterson8276]

Since when ??

[@josephdolinsky8668]

Been a fan of Ian and Jethro Tull since the release of their LP “Stand Up” (back around 1970) - which is still one of my favorites. Phenomenal band!

[@rupertbobrowicz963]

Stand Up number 1 hit in the UK Summer 1969! The start of real Tull after the bluesy This Was in 1968. 😎💙🇬🇧🌎👍

[@ericsigelmann562]

I love this song and this group, they're amazing

[@Jimmyback1000]

They’re a brilliant band and should be in the Hall of Fame. I’ve seen Jethro Tull probably about 13 times, from early on right through to the late stuff and they’re still going strong, brand new album coming out soon The Zealot Gene. Each time I see them live, it’s always been a great experience, fantastic sound, loud and soothing…🙂

[@redskies4530]

Hi I recommend a song called 'Where I come from' By Robert Nix

[@julialane6645]

Thanks, I was not aware of a new Album.

[@mikehubbard5493]

I've gone to 4 Tull concerts. Always an incredible show. I love his Christmas album, and have grown a new love for this genius work of Ian Anderson.

[@davidmcque627]

Yeah, love the Christmas album. That goes on the second week of November right through till new year.

[@elforeigner3260]

This music never gets old but epic!

[@johnshields6852]

I was 15 when this song popped on the radio, underrated song, one of their best. 1975 was a good year for rock music.

Witnessed Ian play live somwhere around 15-20 years ago. The man is incredibly tallented well beyond just his flute playing. He is a musical Genious.

I was introduced to Jethro Tull in my late teens. Such a unique style. Like no one else. Ian Anderson's voice and flute playing is so different. I can't think of anyone that has this kind of sound. Really love them.

What reason could the hall of fame have for not inducting them

[@1toshi32]

@@scottaussem1771 I think you replied to the wrong person when you asked about what reason the hall of fame wouldn't induct them. You needed to reply to Mindless Droid. Must have been amazing to see them live on stage. Seeing them in person is so much better than seeing them on TV or listening to their music from a CD

Jethro Tull was the first concert I had attended. MSG, NYC in the mid 70s. What a memory!

[@theshrubberer]

was first concert for me too ... Hartford 1978. My buddies and i were so high up in the rafters that when Tull came out we thought it was a warm up band. they opened with Skating Away ..we were like "the opening act is playing Skating Away?" ...lol

Me too! I saw them 78/79 at Earl's Court in my teens and was mesmerised by Ian Anderson in full breeches/codpiece and one-legged flutery. There was a Glen Cornick lookalike freaking out to Aqualung in front of us. Saw JT 3 more times, last in 2005 (Rock Island?) when they still rocked.

[@melanypeters4845]

This is my favourite Jethro Tull song! I heard it on the radio the other day, and just had to KZbin it. I keep listening to it over and over again. Brilliant! He may come across as a bit crazy, but no one can create music like this unless they’re a serious musician

[@paulanthony5274]

Not as crazy as the rest of the band, they're bananas, love it though, who likes normal, it's boring.

Amazing musician. Great Flutist! "Living in the past" is my favorite song.

[@3dprinterjam263]

This was not only a mega-talented band with a mega-mega talented leader, it was an incredible time to be a fan and see these bands live. I saw Tull live during their Passion Play tour: they played FOUR FRIGGIN HOURS. All of Aqualung, LITP, Thick as a Brick, Passion Play, they played forever. Yes played for way over three hours when I saw them during this same time. Now a band makes you feel like you should include them in your will if they play longer than an hour. Please.

[@scottallan1595]

Couldn't agree more. I was blessed enough to see YES 23-times and Tull 16-times. 🙏

[@3dprinterjam263]

@@scottallan1595 23!! 16! Wow. That's amazing. When I saw Yes it was during the Tales from Topographic Oceans tour, and in addition to all the wonderful past stuff they played, they played the fourth side of the aforementioned album, which was my favorite, with that mind-blowing Alan White drum solo part. One of my 2 or 3 most watched films of all times was the original George Pal "War of the Worlds" movie, and they had mounted over his drums three huge replicas of the Martian machines that shot lasers out into the audience. WOAH!!! Yeah, those were the days. No more. Kansas Song for America tour was another incredible concert. Floyd Wall tour too. Great times. Those times were great, but I can't say there weren't great acts later. As much as I enjoyed all of that, seeing the Butthole Surfers live a few times in their early years dang near ruined my ability to take in "good" live performances. They truly BLEW my mind to smithereens. Naked dancers covered in day-glo red and green paint, with Jacques Cousteau videos behind them. In a way, Gibby Haynes was the next Gen's Ian Anderson.

[@carlwhitney917]

Recent discovery for me after going through my late fathers records . Have to say I love it.

[@Matthew-ut6ed]

First heard this in the early 70's when I was about 12. It made a huge impression - the unusual time signature, the eerie tone of the flute, the way it builds from soft to outright rocking. Loved it then and it stands the test of time. A long time.....

[@h.-j.muller350]

Mir ist ( mit meinen 68 Jahren) nicht bekannt, dass je eine andere Band Jethro Tull gecovert hat. Das allein unterstreicht die grandiose Einmaligkeit dieser Musik. Absolut zeitlos und immer wieder ein Genuss 👏👍
