Jethro Tull - Thick As A Brick (Thick As a Brick - Live in Iceland)

Jethro Tull - Thick As A Brick (Thick As a Brick - Live in Iceland)
Available Now: mercury-studio...
Jethro Tull's famous concept album "Thick As A Brick" was originally released in 1972 and featured one continuous track spread across two sides of an LP telling the story of a young boy called Gerald Bostock.
40 years later in 2012, Jethro Tull's founder and leader Ian Anderson created "Thick As A Brick 2: Whatever Happened To Gerald Bostock?". Following this release Ian Anderson took both albums on the road to perform the complete story of Gerald Bostock and this concert from the tour was filmed in Iceland. The show combines music, video screens and mime to bring Gerald's tale to life as never before and create the definitive presentation of "Thick As A Brick".

As a lifelong fan. ( I've been fortunate enough to see Tull several times ) I say thank you Mr Anderson is always appreciated .

[@tomdutra977]

Your talent

[@tuncarkan1150]

The new young guy is a promising one...Great music that never extincts !

[@mikeford7261]

This young guy is really good....a little like Ian back in the OLD DAYS!!!

[@jstanley011]

Still crazy after all these years...

[@MyVeryHappyDay]

Great performance. Great music.

[@Leifura]

This was great, and I should know. I was there

[@chrissieczka4421]

Ok, so here's the deal. The real Tull fans will recall the "rubbing elbows " tour, around 2003. Ian would invite chosen people from the audiance, to sit down with him on a sofa on stage and ask him questions. Cool. Can you imagine being able to do that? I would probably freeze and be stupid. But it acurd to me, I would pay the same ticket price , just to hear him talk. Converse about whatever. We all understand his genius. So, to have a stand in singer is even more genius. Let's have more of it . Please please please.

I wish they would release video and/or audio of them playing TAAB live in 1972. They must have something in the vaults.

Гениально !!!

Именно так:-)

[@togue777]

There is no shame in losing your voice after decades of relentless touring but Ian should have called it a day about 10 years ago. He looks like Neil Peart with the hiccups for Gods sake. And I can't imagine he needs the money. Tull is easily one of my 5 favorite bands but it is hard to fathom a perfectionist such as Ian not cringing at what I've watched of recent performances.

[@oskarileikos]

Or maybe he just enjoys performing and wants to continue doing something that brings him (and all the fans who come to see him) joy???

[@tlbshere]

I seen tull crest of a knave tour.and also and in the nineties.the coak tour was fantastic.the second he had no voice period.he kept holding out his mic for crowd to sing. I thought he was with a cold but he wrecked his voice around under wraps tour. Now im 52 and tull is a toss up between #1 0r 2 in my book. That being said he just cant sing anymore he needs to just call it a day.i love ian anderson and his music. He has copd now too. If he comes around i wont go see him. Tull will always be my favorite band but i prefer to remember them up until catfish rising after that not so much.

[@klanggnomvideo--sound---pr2435]

goooooood ? goooder than goooood

[@TheNellamaria]

amazing

[@yvore1]

Ryan O'Donnel is a great singer , and performer !!!

[@alejandrotorres1191]

See there, a son is born And we pronounce him fit to fight There are blackheads on his shoulders And there he pees himself in the night We'll make a man of him Put him to trade Teach him to play monopoly And how to sing in the rain The poet and the painter Casting shadows on the water As the sun plays on the infantry Returning from the sea The doer and the thinker, no allowance for the other As the failing light illuminates the mercenary's creed The home fire burning, the kettle almost boiling But the master of the house is far away The horses stamping Their warm breath clouding In the sharp and frosty morning of the day And the poet lifts his pen While the soldier sheaths his sword And the youngest of the family Is moving with authority Building castles by the sea He dares the tardy tide To wash them all aside

[@carlhardwickofficial]

Pretty good for a cover band.

[@growinguppg]

Musically perfect. Ian may have lost partially his voice, which is understandable after the serious Health issues he has suffered, but he is still this great flutist, guitarist and performer. Of course I am nostalgic of the great Tull I saw live twice in 76-78 and of the great Martin Barre and others. Pity to see today Ian and Martin touring separately and performing the same songs.

[@EmergentPhenomenom]

In places, this does seem a bit like one of those 'shreds' videos..

Who is the singer? I mean the young man, He should do all the vocals.

[@diegoalejandrohernandezron1429]

Ryan O'Donnell

Thanks!

[@555666777jimmy]

yeah..he's awesome

[@leandropessina3961]

This is not Jethro Tull. This is the Ian Anderson band (Tull ended in 2011).

[@javierllerena5756]

Completely agree with you , Jethro Tull ended in 2011 when Ian Anderson decided to disband Jethro Tull, Martin Barre said , that was the best mistake of Ian Anderson in his life . This band never sound as Jethro Tull. The input to the band from M Barre , D Perry , A Giddings and J Noyce or D Pegg are irreplaceable.

♥️♥️❤️

[@SteveOostdyk]

Not gonna lie, I'd rather Ian just have the young guy sing everything. He captures the original essence.

[@ЭдуардИльин-в4л]

Просто Велик!

[@TheLastOilMan]

I wonder what Ian’s pact with the big guy was ?

[@LoriDe]

!!!!

[@tedkay_music]

New lineup great

[@arylucasalvesdasilva6761]

Fala aí pedrão,

[@markstarfish]

wanting more

[@robertkaye5434]

This is good band, but IMHO opinion ... Jethro Tull equals Ian Anderson and Martin Barre. All else is an emulation.

[@SCDfamily]

THIS IS NOT JETHRO TULL... IAN ANDERSON TOURING ADVENTURES.

[@Zernobilly]

This isn't Jethro Tull, this is Ian Anderson's soolo project. Thick as A Brick 2 was him getting rid off the band and raising up the ticket prices from rock band to equivalent of seeing London Symphony Orchestra.

[@Cestariarts]

[@alsw7792]

Jethro Tull is the wackiest act I've ever seen by a musical group.

[@binghamguevara6814]

My opinion on Ian’s performance: thick as a brick

[@rocksteady9115]

Freak show now

[@MyVeryHappyDay]

Distrizio pensacante e majio e mollio cantenegro.

[@hughdunnit3188]

jeez how sad.....he dances around like Elvis during his last days.....kung fu fighting.....then he has got someone singing for him..... hard to watch......we all get older...but most try to do it with grace.....this is really hard to watch......this performance has nothing to do with the real Jethro Tull

[@technoidX681]

All good but he should hire a good singer

[@outerrealm]

Having seen Tull MANY times when they were in their prime I find this band quite mediocre, not coming close to doing justice to the original passion with which the original members performed live. The keyboardist uses a very blase imitation hammond sound not even using a real leslie speaker, his drawbar voicings are lackluster and arbitrary, and not doing justice to the energy which the piece calls for. Handing off vocals to another band member also lends itself to inauthenticity. Come on Ian, is it THAT hard to get players who can do proper justice to the material?

[@kiwizeppelin]

Saw Tull about 3 weeks ago. Im more worried about Ians voice than I am about the band.

[@NuntiusLegis]

I think it is a real Leslie - things get smaller with advancing technology, you know. Ian still sings himself, and on a good night better than some years ago. The additional singer allows him to strain his vocal chords less and to play more flute, since doing both simultaneously is something he can pull off, but not with lyrics.

[@jammer3618]

Sad. Anderson should have returned years ago. His voice is gone.

[@TheLastOilMan]

They cut out the on stage colon cancer BS. I would have dropped them a turd for their troubles

[@spock_elvis]

Is that Popeye?

[@Mel_ilm]

The voice I can understand but such sloppy electric guitar and keyboards playing. So many wrong notes, complete lack of finesse. This is really upsetting. Don't you have no shame to ruin such an amazing piece of art?

[@mrgrey361]

@@jacquibrown4392 He fired the guys who know how to play this material. Hire them back, that simple.

[@mrgrey361]

Woe such a weak rendition
