[@dankoftinoff8119]

I consider Jethro Tull one of the best Rock acts of all time!

[@DickusCopernicus]

From a time when rock bands could play their instruments without the aid of autotune or computers, and when they sounded better live than in the studio. Classic Tull.

[@davidbrown5152]

Could not agree with you more! Saw Martin Barre in March, he was as good or better than when he was in Jethro Tull. He’s 76 years old and as lively as ever!

[@DickusCopernicus]

@@davidbrown5152 Martin Barre is a very underrated guitarist. He was every bit as good as Beck, Page and Clapton.

[@ljsites]

Minstrel in The Gallery may just be Tull’s finest Album!

[@jage71]

Barriemore Barlow.... one of rock's most underrated drummers.

[@stevesmith9988]

Barrie is one of the three greatest drummers I've ever seen ... maybe Top 2 - and I've seen a couple thousand (seriously, I'm a music writer)! No. 1: Carl Palmer

[@jage71]

@@stevesmith9988 Clive Bunker was no slouch either. He was more Bonham era and I hate to say it, but after watching Tull's Isle of Wight dvd, I'd say better. But, just my opinion. 😉

[@stevesmith9988]

@@jage71 Thanks for the reply! Clive was definitely no slouch. But I've seen literally hundreds or thousands of truly excellent musicians who were not slouches since my first show in1967 - including the excellent Clive Bunker. But none of them were up there with Carl Palmer or Barrie Barlow.

[@DonII1980]

Not amongst his peers! John Bonham called Barrie "the greatest rock drummer England ever produced"!

[@jage71]

@@DonII1980 I just said he was underrated. I know he was great. Did super-human stuff. And playing Tull is not easy at all. I could play Rush, but Yes and Tull had me messed up.

[@chazblitz]

Jeffrey Hammond just killing it. This was the end of the line for old Jeffrey. John Evan is the keyboardist, Martin Barre on guitar and Barrie Barlow on drums. Next song off this album that deserves your attention is Baker St. Muse. It's a long one but you won't be sorry.

[@handebarlas6248]

Subjective I suppose...Black Satin Dancer and Cold Wind are masterpieces.

[@MLewisDesign]

Agree.. Baker Street Muse is an absolute masterpiece… up there with A Passion Play and Thick As A Brick ♥️♥️♥️

[@johnhalverson1133]

"Baker Street Muse, take one. Shit shit shit take two."

[@jimgore1278]

Saw Tull in Albany, NY on this tour. At that time I played in a band that covered quite a bit of Tull material, among other bands. Funny enough, a couple of years later I took some university courses in Kingston, ON with an English woman who, it turned out, was a cousin of Jeffrey Hammond.

[@NewBritainStation]

I think the entire studio album (and other tracks recorded at the time) are among Ian’s best vocal performances in his career.

[@ricenglish4556]

His voice was clear as a bell the Minstrel In The Gallery album. The only album that might have better vocals would be A Passion Play.

Saw Tull at the British leg of this '75 tour at the Southampton Gaumont. Had fallen in love with Tull back in '71 when I was living in Nigeria.This was only my second gig ever, and I was totally blown away. Was in the second row right at the front. Swear Ian made eye contact with me couple of times, widening his eyes in mock surprise as I was likely the only black face in the audience.

[@prlibreya]

WOW‼... Definitivamente, Jethro Tull es una de las bandas Rock más increíbles, novedosas, creativas y espectaculares de todos los tiempos. Esa Presentación que has evaluado es realmente fabulosa⚡🎶👏🏽🤩

[@tombillings101]

This is the best Tull lineup! Jeffrey’s energy is amazing!

[@johnlittle4833]

Ian Anderson is the finest Minstrel in the Gallery ever seen in contemporary rock music. He has no rival as a musician, composer, and performer. Anyone who saw the band in their prime in the 70s, 80s, and 90s will understand the truth of these comments.

[@ricenglish4556]

I think it's awesome that she knew Martin Barre's name when he came in with that blistering guitar riff and run. Martin is my all-time favorite guitarist and Tull my all-time favorite band. I'm guessing your name is Barry, and you really have good taste. Those Tull concerts in the 70's were an experience that lasts a lifetime. Ian and the boys dressed up in that medieval garb and always put on such a theatrical performance. They actually performed their songs better live than in the studio. That 1975 line-up was of course Ian and Martin, Jeffery Hammond-Hammond on bass, John Evans on keyboards, and Barriemore Barlow on drums. That was the classic Tull line-up. You know your stuff. Rock On!!!!!

[@ricenglish4556]

They really have a way of building things up and then it just explodes. Some of Martin's electric guitar work rivals any of all-time.

[@MLewisDesign]

Signature Ian Anderson/ Tull right there ❤ Ian wrote the songs on his acoustic guitar, including Aqualung… he originally played that riff to Martin on his acoustic guitar and told him to imagine that on his electric guitar, as that was what he would be playing… the rest is history, and Martin then went on to improvise his famous solo for the track on the album, with Jimmy page watching and waving to him in the recording studio.

I came to watch the Tull performance but ended up being mesmerized watching you watch it for what I take it is the very first time of hearing the song. It brings tears to the eyes of this old guy who saw Tull live back about this time. Minstrel is my favorite Tull album. It is just so cool that someone of your generation is still affected in this way by the real musicianship (no tracks, no computers, no MIDI, no BS!) of these talented artists! Keep on rockin'!

My all time favourite band who I first saw in 1970 when I climbed in a toilet window at Seaburn in Sunderland aged 16 as the gig was sold out and mobbed.

This performance is from Warchild tour, before album Minstrel in the Gallery came out.The whole album is recorded during this tour in mobile studio.Been fan of Tull since 71. but this was the first time I saw them live, and it was unforgetable!This is my favor line up:Ian Anderson, Martin Barre, Geffrey Hammond-Hammond, Barrimore Barlow, and John Evan.Hammond, Barlow and Evan was Ian's old friends from teenage days, and "Minstrel"was the last album of Jethro Tull "heroic" time wich started with Aqualung in 71.

Back in the day, the Record Company called for an album a year. None of that 6 years between releases. So bands were forced to write and record on the fly. Busy guys.

One of my all-time favorite bands. I remember telling my friends at school they should check out this great band called Jethro Tull, and they said, "Who?" and I said, "No, not The Who, Jethro Tull!" They'd just look at me like I wasn't speaking English anymore.

[@TheRightONe-et3gh]

I was at that concert. I have seen great bands, Genesis with Peter Gabriel, the Who with Keith Moon, the Stones... but for me that was the best concert. The reasons? #1 The location was nice, seating good acoustic, not like the hangars or stadiums rock concerts were usually held in. I was going to concert for the music not the event so comfortable seating is important. #2 The quality of the performance. They were playing like the albums... and then some. #3 The theatrical, everything, the costumes, the jokes, the jumping around, the scantily dress girls, it was a performance. I still love Jethro Tull music... now what I think of Ian Anderson and the way he treated his old band members is... another story.

[@tullfan2560]

That is the most incredible Tull performance I've seen on KZbin. The pageantry is fantastic. Ian as the scalliwag with codspiece, Martin in his arts smock, John Evan the ice cream man, Jeffery in his zebra suit and Barriemore as the bricklayer. The musicianship is striking and wonderful as well. Martin's burst guitar is transfixing and the way the drums come together with the flute and guitars is so hooky. One can only wonder what the lyrics are about as Ian always had a level of ambiguity in them. But I think you had it pretty right. Ian is singing largely about himself!

[@bradprescott2101]

Yep. Got into both in '71. Add GG it was a great year.

[@unchattytwit]

Ian Anderson was being very unfairly criticised by 'the music press' and so I think this is just a way of 'getting back' - it's a litany of largely humorous observations and insults of the music critics, and the public, with, as you say , at least some realisation that he possesses those traits as well. What a song though - The Minstrel in The Gallery is one of the most underrated but one of the best Jethro Tull albums although there are plenty of great albums. Top 5 albums for me: Aqualung; Thick As A Brick; Stand Up; Songs From The Woods; Minstrel.

[@vernhoke7730]

This is a band that I missed seeing back in the seventies. In '75 was still in high school, working after school for $2 an hour. You had to listen to the radio all day long, pick up the Aquarian to find out when the shows were and tickets went on sale, then stand in line to get them. Unlike today a few clicks and you get them.

[@twwtjohns]

And almost 15 years later Jethro Tull recieved a Grammy Award for best Heavy Metal album. Beating out the likes of Metallica, Jane's Addiction, Iggy Pop and AC/DC.
