Jethro Tull- Locomotive Breath Live Reaction!

[@RMForbes505]

Yep, Tull's front man, Ian Anderson was in great physical shape. Their shows lasted for as long as four hours. Can you imagine how good of shape you have to be in to perform with this much energy for that long?

[@gregrambo606]

Even though Anderson chained smoked cigarettes like a chimney. Saw a video interview with him where he lit up smoke after smoke.

Plus the lung capacity required to play a wind instrument, sing and prance around the stage at the same time.

[@carojayess1723]

He did say the words “locomotive breath,”right at the beginning: “In the shuffling madness Of the locomotive breath Runs the all-time loser Headlong to his death” 🔥

One of the unique bands from back in my day.

[@barbmack7098]

I grew up in a beach town south of Los Angeles -- this means that we had easy access to all sorts of concerts and other entertainment in Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego -- back in the day. My brother and I went to many MANY "Tull" concerts. By the end of one of their concerts, you KNEW you had been entertained. This song, Locomotive Breath, was the absolutely-mandatory-required "last song" of the evening --- and yes.... complete with the balloons!!! By the end of the evening NO ONE was sitting down!!! Fabulous memories. When he was young, Ian Anderson was a choir boy in -- I think it was southern Scotland -- he could sing quite well, but that flute -- NO ONE has ever played a flute like he did -- he even sang WHILE playing the flute. It is also my understanding that he has written over 1,000 pieces of music. Another one of my very faves is "Broadsword." Thanks for playing this -- memories!!

Check "Thick as a Brick" live in New York, Madison Square Garden 1978. Great live sound, great video.

[@joepaskowski9091]

Electric guitar + drums + flute = Jethro Tull Appreciate you guys reacting to this unique but very popular band

[@u2kimbow]

They were 70s, British, very talented, glad you were willing to listen and hope you appreciate something about it. Old school but still can learn there

[@GregPiper-tz6oi]

Great band, great performance, glad you guys liked it. Tull is on another level.

[@terrieb13]

One of my favorite songs from this amazing band! 💖😎

[@johncullen9298]

Jethro Tull is the band. They are amazing. Check out Aqualung or Thick as a Brick...

[@clairwalshe9468]

Ian in my opinion was an absolute genius...he surrounded himself with the very best in terms of his band.

[@paulpalmer4385]

Bend yourselves around the corner with Tull's live performance of "My God" Beyond belief.

[@byronmitchell3784]

JETHRO TULL, "LOCOMOTIVE BREATH", I Saw them in 1997 with the group Emmerson, Lake, and Palmer. Both bands were dynamic. More Tull, "CROSS EYED MARY", "AQUALUNG", "LIVING IN THE PAST", "THICK AS A BRICK"...

[@shelleyparsons5735]

I saw them live back in the 70's. I have to say it was quite the night.

[@shannonotoole3526]

As a ENCORE! after a whole concert. IAN ANDERSON is the GOAT

[@bradleyflinn3421]

Dude. No one else could ever rock a fucking flute ever.

[@emole9511]

Thick as a Brick live ,MSG is a recommendation . Jethro Tull is one of the greatest bands ever . Thank you for your video gentleman!🇳🇱👏🥁💐✌️

[@lynnieiapichino1121]

☮️💙💙💙love Ian!!

[@shannonotoole3526]

HE IS SELF TAUGHT! broke all the norms

[@davidpost428]

You talk about Ian Andrson's great energy - the band would go on for three hours in concert!

[@lechiffre5078]

The bad ass that made the flute cool.

[@LewDanLascivious8276]

You were both saying how tiring it must be to be dancing around like that and blowing into the flute well that's why they call Ian Anderson Aqualung and Aqualung is a fantastic song too but 4 of my favorites by Jethro Tull are "My God" and "Cross-Eyed Mary" studio versions and "Dharma For One" the live version off the "Living In The Past" album and the whole "Thick As A Brick' album which is actually a concept album that's one whole song but there's just too many great ones to choose from by them really.

[@dlove7141]

Consider playing Journey song . "send her my love".. video from thier worldwide sold out concert Tour in the 80's called the Escape Tour..got like 24m views..was a monster hit and huge concert

[@bassnut57]

"I think it's a flute.." LOL.

[@Michael-vz9xk]

Suggestions, Queen Bohemian Rhapsody, Dan Bull Civilization and Far Cry Primal Rap ...

[@meyou-dv8ns]

Who is Jethro Tool? and that thing he is playing. lol. lol. you guys are too funny

[@meyou-dv8ns]

WHY. is everyone on You Tube. listening for the first time to the same FIVE Jethro Tull songs, how does this work? They have over 700 songs and only the same ones are done by 30 different people on You Tube?

[@patricknorton9948]

WHERE IS HUNTER? Try Jethro Tull Aqua Lung.

[@GilTMann-ly5fd]

Locomotive Breath refers to life out of control. "... no way to slow down!"

[@GilTMann-ly5fd]

I suggest exploring the great jazz artist Rahsaan Roland Kirk. E.g. song... "Serenade To A Cuckoo"

[@wolfedan3]

Come on guys. A locomotive is an early stream driven train engine.

[@trep8387]

Hey that shadow from your hat looks like spirit on the side of you

[@TexasMagnolia]

People have got to get away from computers, and pick up instruments again.

[@drefk1973]

whithe man creates, black man reacts. Seems about right

[@AliasMark69]

If you don't like this..... there's always RAP
