Jethro Tull - Song for Jeffery - 1969 - French TV

This is what makes KZbin so good.

😂😂😂😎

[@nickshel]

This audience is so much cooler than anything you could see on TV today.

[@ryancole90]

First, ever song I learned on the harmonica and one of the early songs I learned on the bass. Ian Anderson is not just a great flute player but a great harmonica player. Glenn Cornick is a fantastic bass player as well

[@rinalore]

When I was a wee lass I went to a cottage with a best friend and her parents for the weekend and her grumpy Da couldn't stand our music and he'd only allow us to bring one cassette for the 4 hour-one way car ride. She and I battled for an hour before leaving cuz she wanted to bring KISS and I refused to go unless we brought Jethro Tull's "Aqualung"! 🥳I💪🏻won! 🤦🏻‍♀️The old fart only let it play 4 songs on the hour! 🌹Thank you for sharing, I love everything👏🏻created by Jethro Tull, especially the great🎶musical💭memories.

[@jasonreedrn]

Classic..... The people in the audience are effing KILLING me. They're groooovin'.

[@apollomemories73]

Oh yes it is! Johnny Halliday Show recorded April 15 1969 - they're first trip to Paris. Check out the show logo on the left bass drum. Martin joined December 24 1968. He's there. Also, there is no film of Mick Abrahams with JT.

MOTHER OF TULL!! best tull song ever!!

[@lilyofthevalley5586]

My # 1 band of all time. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@ric60100]

The way Ian sings this song has always reminded me of Capt. Beefheart.

[@kathyorourke8354]

A lot of parallels between early Tull and the Captain. I’ve thought of that a lot.

[@kylealexander1172]

I agree. Follow the yellow brick road screams Tull to me

[@progmeup]

Definitely intentional according to Ian's comments.

[@George19712]

Ok. I love this. I consider this a great influence on me. Enough said. Cool to know others enjoy with me.

[@andmoreagain9]

Caught them at the 1969 Newport Jazz Festival in RI.

[@WilmerCook]

1969 at Devonshire Downs festival in LA in 1969, my first time I saw them. The girl I was with said look look he singing on 1 leg! Fan forever after thst

[@michaelneas2732]

I was 15 years old in 1969, at that time I never realized what a fantastic musician Ian Anderson was ..too busy focusing on the Beartle and the Stones To Glad to see them on KZbin .

[@user-th3ll8rl7i]

What's wrong with the Beartle? I love the Beartle.

Words to live by:: Gonna lose my way tomorrow, gonna give away my car. I'd take you along with me, but you would not go so far. Don't see what I do not want to see, you don't hear what I don't say. Won't be what I don't want to be, I continue in my way. Don't see, see, see where I'm goin', Don't see, see, see where I'm goin', Don't see, see, see where I'm goin' to, I don't want to. Everyday I see the mornin' come on in the same old way. I tell myself tomorrow brings me things I would not dream today.

[@fabrikk60]

@ric60100 There is a Tull/Beefheart connection, oddly enough. A bunch of Beefheart's Magic Band guys formed a band called Mallard in about 1973. Ian Anderson heard them, and liked them so much that he financed their debut album.

This was during that short period when they were between guitarists. On the live Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus version, you'll see Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath fame, also miming the guitar part. I can't tell for the life of me who the guitar player is here haha! Also, this shuffle is wicked!! Clive Bunker was just phenomenal!!

[@bonzorip6162]

When you think about it, it's ironic that Glenn Cornick figures so prominently in a song about the guy who replaced him eventually. But, I love his style. Clive just looks bored in all of these TV videos, it's hilarious.

Is this song about Jeff Hammond??

[@ericbgordon1575]

Always wondered if Ian had a kind of unhealthy obsession with Jeffrey Hammond. Is it because Ian wanted Jeffrey to be the bass guitarist for Tull at the start instead of Glenn Cornick? Ah well, he finally got his wish when they got to work on the *Aqualung* album. Glad to know Ian and Glenn reconciled any differences before Glenn passed away.

That's really interesting. That would have been around the time of Johnny's "Angry Psych " period (A tout Casser , Voyage au Pays Des Vivant , MAL , ETC.).I could swear I once saw a clip of Glen Cornick playing Harmonica (Strapped around his neck like Dylan) on this song......Too bad there's no footage with Abrahams.

This is not 1969. Martin joined in late 1968-early 1969. This is likely summer or fall of 1968.

haha...got ya... & yes, Tony was with Tull for just 1 performance (on "The Rolling Stones Rock & Roll Circus") maybe that's how you got it mixed up I saw Tony right after he, Ward, Geezer & Ozzy made the final switch from Earth to the name Sabbath official! Only after seeing early Zepp & Tull live could top that! btw: did you know Iommi was diagnosed with early stages of lymphoma?

I did 6 times in their best live-works era between 71 to 75, with TAAB, Passion Play, Aqualung, War Child, etc. sets usually 3 solid awe-inspiring hours--I'm still amazed! Each time was new & like for War Child...all of a sudden lights completely out & the loudest air raid sirens in pitch black rumbling the arena- then they got louder with lights flashing from 360 degrees- blew a few minds & caused a couple bad 'trips'!

The "audience" looks like a bunch of extras hired by the TV production company to hang out on the floor and look hippie-like. Gives it that real counterculture feel, you know?
