Let's talk about one of the most underrated, under-mentioned, and under-played guitarists: Martin Barre. Masterful.

[@iarocks44]

Just saw him live alst week here in Atlanta. He was amazing! Still rocking after all these years! Easily one of the best rock guitarists ever.

[@robertkaye5434]

I had the honor of interviewing him years ago. Saw him with JT about 10 times over the years. And, most recently, with his own band about 4 years ago.

[@myklegue3968]

Ian Anderson doesn't play the flute...he attacks it viciously!!!

[@Tampahop]

In Russia, the flute plays him. 😁

[@Boodieman72]

Makes flutists around the world nervous.

[@davidputterman2719]

True!

[@user-mv4be1tc2u]

With extreme prejudice.

[@bigb6046]

On the album version of this song about 20 seconds into this flute solo Ian gasps for air , one of the most epic moments in rock music!

[@cjmars822]

Jethro Tull is one if those special groups where they are so completely committed to their sound that it just works. The high energy sends it over the top! Great selection for a reaction

[@clare1061]

Aqualung the studio version

[@TheStefan6969]

Yes!!! Aqualung 💯

[@larryfisher5796]

He was one of my favorites back in my day and still is . I'm 80 years old and still love ROCK AN ROLL . CAN I GET A HELL YES 😎😎😎😎

[@grampytinman3481]

Soooooo.....You are never too old to rock and roll when you are too young to die 😂

[@barrylavender7938]

Excellent band. "Aqualung" and "Living in the Past" are both great songs too.

[@oopsdidItypethatoutloud]

Aye, agree Living in the past 😊 ❤

[@roy19491]

plus, "Songs from the Wood", and "Thick as a Brick"

[@lazyhominid]

The yelling you're hearing while Ian plays flute is - Ian. He's just out of this world. Saw him last year, and he's still a force of nature.

[@Nikioko]

Ian plays the flute almost like a didgeridoo. Which creates some interesting sounds.

[@JohnHF1957]

Ian Anderson's party piece is to play his flute standing on one leg. He is one of the great charismatic stage presences.

[@kurtsaxton823]

Cross-eyed Mary from Jethro Tull is pretty awesome.

[@dedcowbowee]

Good suggestion!👍

[@Pogo113]

So is the cover by Iron Maiden. All of the flute is guitar.

[@lw3918]

Iron Maiden's version is better.

[@kurtsaxton823]

@@lw3918 just depends on which generation you grew up in. I've been going to Maiden shows since the early 80s, I was in Long Beach arena when they were recording live after death. I'm a huge Maiden fan. But it's totally debatable. And she didn't ask ,what were other songs by Iron Maiden ,she asked for other songs by Jethro Tull.

[@lw3918]

@kurtsaxton823 Well aren't we an a hole. Don't like my suggestion, don't respond. Tull is a hippy dope smoking band. Maiden is not and they're much more talented. I too bought the first album when I was 15, seen them live over 18 times here and abroad.

[@Spiritbro77]

He is literally a madman. A glorious wild madman. I love Tull.

[@rebeccasciutto2722]

That's the way Ian Anderson performed at all his concerts and he maintained the high energy through the whole concert. I saw him the first time in 1973 and actually saw them 4 times. One of my favorite groups.

[@davidputterman2719]

Ian Anderson, the lead singer and flute player is super talented with his flute playing. He can actually talk a bit while he's playing (ie., while he was doing his flute solo you said that it sounded like someone said something) That was him.

[@FrowningIke]

Are you sure it wasn't one of his giant gulps of breath? I thought similar when I first heard them. It sounds like a weird yelp? That's him taking a breath.

[@davidputterman2719]

@@FrowningIke Yes, definitely intentional breaths with saying stuff like "Yeah" along with other noises while playing which is his trademark.

[@MattSmith-il4tc]

@@FrowningIke It's something he does in numerous other songs. He talks, vocalizes or even sings WHILE playing the flute to create some crazy sound textures.

[@daniellarsson7919]

​@@FrowningIke Ian is known for "talking" when he plays the flute

[@T-bone1950]

I was told that he taught himself to play the flute.

[@jay-remedy-plz]

More Tull!

[@TheOverlord2010]

Aileen, the band, random info time, was named after Jethro Tull (baptized 30 March 1674 - 21 February 1741, who was an English agriculturist from Berkshire who helped to bring about the British Agricultural Revolution of the 18th century. He perfected a horse-drawn seed drill in 1701 that economically sowed the seeds in neat rows, and later developed a horse-drawn hoe. Tull's methods were adopted by many landowners and helped to provide the basis for modern agriculture.w

[@614LkyDvls]

Jethro Tull's "My God", Live at the Island of Wight 1970 might be my favorite performance of theirs. I guarantee you have never heard the flute quite like that one.

[@mikefetterman6782]

This band always made me feel like I was at an ancient, medieval, Woodstock festival.

[@JohnHF1957]

It is either "ancient" or "medieval", it can't be both, as they are different time periods.

[@RustyDust101]

The studio version of "Locomotive Breath" begins a LOT slower. It begins with a very soft piano intro, slow, settled, harmonious. It rises to a full crescendo at the end, resulting in the transfer to what you heard in this version. It is nearly another minute and a half long. My sister (nine years older) got me hooked on them. The live versions are so much livlier, energetic, pulse pounding.

[@user-oe9hj9yl7m]

Jethro Tull took their name from a British agricultural inventor who developed the first horse multi bladed plough and the the first seed drill

[@DavidMiller-dt8mx]

So nice to see you jamming out to Tull. Theyve been one of my favorites since I was a kid. I'm 62 now, and watching Ian is still incredible. Enjoy, beautiful lady. :)

[@josephpowell3949]

I saw Jethro Tull, Robin Trower, and Johnny and Edgar Winter Live at Tampa Stadium in Tampa, FL. back in the day!😎

[@billmalone9949]

Ooh! Jethro Tull! This could be a fantastic rabbit hole for you. Cross Eyed Mary, Teacher, Hymn 43 are great ones for this energy. If you like this but slower they have Thick as a Brick, Skating Away on the Thin Ice of a New Day, or Too Old to Rock and Roll Too Young to Die.

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

Jack in the green etc... give her the range the ballads and ditties... Broadsword and the beast Album and Stormwatch to compare with Songs from the wood and Heavy horses..🧙🏼‍♂️🌌🇬🇧

[@thomasmacdiarmid8251]

Another great one, especially for the flute soli, is My God, but I strongly recommend the studio version before the live version.

[@jim7747]

I strongly concur with all of the above recommendations! You'll have a blast listening to any (all?) of these!

[@vinnyganzano1930]

I've seen Jethro Tull live around a dozen times over the years. Always put on a great show and their albums were amazing one of my go to bands, absolutely love them and their sound.

[@enchantedwooddesigns3462]

Damn Im so jealous. One I really want to go to but never got the chance yet.

[@gazoontight]

“It’s over.” You fell for Jethro Tull, like so many have.

[@Nikioko]

Thick as a Brick wouldn't be over so quickly. 😆

[@kurtschmidt9760]

Need to jump down the jethro rabbit hole. Most of his songs are great. I had a once in a lifetime chance to see him in concert in Vegas. What a great concert. I have listened to him as a young teenager. He was self taught on the flute. I am glad you liked this and yes please do more Jethro.

[@Rock_Snob]

They are a band named “Jethro Tull”… Ian Anderson was the leader of the band.

[@planetcampervan]

Was lucky enough to work a few Tull gigs and got to meet Ian...always thought he was one of the best front men for a band ive ever seen..he not only has a great unique voice but the different styles of playing the flute ,with fluttering and singing throu the flute ....just amazing ...so glad you enjoyed them too....peace...

[@annheckenbach9396]

As a really young teenager, our local venue had a door that opened which you ran through and headed for the front, no seating. And so fleet of foot, I stood on the first row, directly beneath the stage and Ian Anderson the flute player, for the whole Jethro Tull concert. I still remember it clearly- a total stand- out! He had a tendency to stand on one leg, like a stork when he played his flute solos; and I felt like I needed a sedative when I got home, ha! His energy was that tad bit maniacal, as can be seen. He also played acoustic guitar, very well. Kudoes to the pianist as well, also great.

[@steveclapper5424]

Where was this?

[@f.d.robben159]

My parents gave each child a different instrument to take with them on their journey through life. For me as the seventh and last it was the flute. After four years of boring lessons as a child, I switched to piano. When I was 14 years old, I heard Jethro Tull for the first time. I dug out my flute again and rediscovered it for myself. Today, 40 years later, I almost look like Ian Anderson, but the flute is long gone.

[@CliffordValvick]

Saw them in the 90s way passed their prime but they were still rocking it! Procol Harum opened up for them, what a great concert!!

[@allenruss2976]

I saw Procul Harem with Yes 15 yrs ago and it was a great show

[@flingonber]

I saw them in the 90s too, they were still crazy high energy! ELP was the opening act, great show.

[@greatwhitewing]

The man single handedly made the flute cool

[@MitchClement-il6iq]

Absolutely, and guy from karate kid soundtrack!

[@TheSr1966]

Thick As A Brick “ 1978 - live version My God live - isle of wright -Aqualung live -Songs from the Wood-live -Velvet Green - live

[@charliemac64]

This tune is probably played late in the set, so just imagine him running around the stage like that for an hour anna half-plus and still bringing it like this. Saw them in 1988 at the Concord Pavillion in Cali. Awesome show.

[@kevenbridges9433]

As of April 2023, Jethro Tull has released over 30 studio and live albums.. The band has sold more than 60 million albums worldwide, with 11 gold and 5 platinum albums, Ian Anderson is still touring in 2024. The bands first album was released in 1968 titled This Was. Ian is still making music 56 years later.

[@amoco14]

I had an older friend in the 70's and I was dating his younger sister. So we hung out and partied together and he is the friend that introduced me to Jethro Tull . Big fan of Aqualung and Thick As A Brick.

[@viecyntnelson3495]

Aileen, your React video was fantastic as always! Speaking of greatness, Jethro Tull's "Aqualung" is another masterpiece. I'm eagerly anticipating your react/analysis on Battle Beast. With their upcoming North American tour, headlining for the first time, they truly deserve recognition. Last year, they delivered an unforgettable performance as Kamelot's opener. Their latest album, "Circus of Doom," offers plenty of material for scrutiny, perhaps starting with "Master of Illusion" or "Where Angels Fear to Fly." And let's not forget their classics like "Straight to the Heart," "Out of Control," or "Bastard Son of Odin." For a blast from the past, "Black Ninja" certainly made waves. Noora's voice is amazing, and they're super energetic on stage. If you haven't seen them live yet, you should totally check them out!

[@ThistleAndSea]

Jethro Tull and Ian Anderson knew how to put on a SHOW, LOL! They have so many great songs. Their high energy live performances though can sound quite different from their studio tracks which often have longish, subtle intros with jazz and classical influences. Plus their lyrics are always significant and substantial. Aileen, you can definitely do a deep dive on Tull. You should listen to the studio cut for this same song, and you'll really get a feel for their range. They are one of the best progressive rock bands ever. Thanks for sharing this one. 🙂

[@user-pf7jm9go6o]

Need to hear the studio version to really appreciate this song. Ian Anderson only gets noted for the flute playing and antics, but he's the songwriter, arranger, vocalist, and is a phenomenal acoustic guitar player. His music is a mix of English folk music, blues, jazz, rock, etc. One of the most unique bands, all members excellent musicians. Their 4 albums, Stand Up, Benefit, Aqualung (this song's album), and Thick as a Brick were absolute classics, but all of them are excellent.

[@marksterner7532]

Ian Anderson, in addition to writing incredible music and playing the flute in an unparalleled fashion, also plays guitar very well. His iconic songs include Aqualung, Bungle in the Jungle, Cross-eyed Mary, Living in the Past, and Bouree. And, the epic full-album song "Thick as a Brick" is a true masterpiece. To get a real sense of his genius up close and personal, check out his live performance of "Life's a Long Song" (Living With the Past), where he plays on guitar with what is, essentially, a chamber orchestra and a piano accompanying him. Brilliant!

[@WinModel88]

"Teacher" from Jethro Tull is a masterpiece!! 🤘🎶🎸

[@markharris1125]

I literally saw Jethro Tull last night, at the London Palladium, and this was the first reaction I found after wanting to relive the experience! I've never been the biggest fan and I only knew a couple if the songs, but I think that's about to change. Ian's voice isn't what it was but the flute playing was excellent and he was dancing round the stage full of energy. It was a great concert and I'm so glad I saw them before they fade into the past. Nice reaction too.

[@sciwiz57]

Jethro Tull is really Ian Anderson who is a genius. This is the best lineup but they are still making music. I would recommend the live version excerpt of “Thick as a Brick”!!!!!!!

[@geraldwoodruff3494]

That's why he's called the PIPED PIPER OF ROCK AND ROLL, he plays the flute and we all follow him into his journey!

[@JamesKovacic]

Thick As A Brick and Stand Up are great albums, too. The live rendition of Brick from 1978 is a must

I'M YELLING FOR MORE OF YOUR BUEATIFUL SMILES at the 7 minute mark!!! Always waiting for your next video. Have a great weekend!

[@philipkudrna5643]

Allegedly every classical flute player gets a heart attack watching this, because of the way Ian Anderson waves his flute around. Such flutes are put together from 3 parts and easily fall apart allegedly, so they fear that a part of his flute might go flying across the stage!

Saw Jethro Tull Live in Stuttgart, Germany when I was stationed over there in the 1980's. Yes, he is always this energetic and his self-taught rock flute never ceases to amaze me, and I have listened to him forever. Another great reaction, just subscribed.

[@user-yn4hs1mg2m]

My friends said let's go to the Tull concert, I said IDK a doud in tights playing a flute. It was 1 of the greatest shows I've ever seen, top 3 for sure. Same high energy for around 3 hrs. Same group of friends today, we still talk about it, we're pushing 70

[@user-yn4hs1mg2m]

@AileenSenpai4 I also would like that, for sure. I went down a KZbin rabbit hole during covid, and it forced me to retire but only a few months earlier than planned. That took me to the reaction cannel called Beth Roars as she speaks a lot about the mechanics of singing which is of interest to me b/c in 2012 Laryngeal cancer caused a bunch of surgeries that resulted in a surgeon using other tissue from in my neck to rebuild my false vocal cord. That led me to your channel, I became a fan of yours b/c of your demeanor, passion, and your insights. As much as anything else, you seem to have a contagious calm about,. Retirement has gone very far to lower my stress level and you can take some of the credit

Ian Anderson (vocals and flute and guitar) growls and vocalizes through the flute to create the vocals you thought you were hearing.

[@brucelucas8877]

Been to many Tull shows. Always something different. Music is always fantastic, but it's the stage presentation (more than just a show) that always put it over the top for me. IMHO, the concert visuals/antics are the most memorable part.

Ian Anderson always gathered gifted musicians around him. For many decades the Guitarrist Martin Barre was the only "constant" in an otherwise revolving lineup. For Ian Anderson, constant rehearsals are the key to putting on such good performances on stage and in the studio.

[@farmerbill6855]

"Thick As A Brick" and "Bungle In The Jungle" are two good places to start.

[@dunringill1747]

Yes, More Tull Please! Try "Thick as a Brick" Live next, either from 1977 or 1978. Jethro Tull is an incredibly deep, intellectual, witty, & talented band to explore. 6:04 "Seems like someone's yelling in the back." That's Ian Anderson the flute player. Among the many pioneering techniques he has created, his ability to breathe inward and sing / make noises while playing the flute is one of his specialties.

[@krisunderwood177]

I love watching people watching or listening to Jethro tull for the first time. Especially when that flute comes in.😅

[@garysexton8840]

You will totally enjoy their music if you check out their albums from the beginning 1968-1980 for starters. They produced one album every year in that time period. And no two albums are alike which shows the creativity of Ian Anderson- the best frontman of the band-composers, songwriter, instrumentalist, vocalist,etc! I suggest that you listen to the studio music before you view the live performances to see how they sound like the studio version when they play live. The most incredible band of the last 50 years. I have seen them live over 40 times since 1971 and have met them backstage twice in 1987 and once in 1997, but with different band members. Always a group of talented musicians.

Fun fact lead singer Ian Andersons son in law is Andrew Lincoln who plays Rick Grimes in The Walking Dead tv series.

[@erikahlander3489]

This used to be the encore of the concerts for many years. That's why the audience is on top already at the beginning. And the baloons in end. I saw it a couple of times.

Me and all of my friends loved the band, We were lucking growing up in those days with one after another after another of awesome bands and it was really a cheap ticket price as well!

[@bostonvair]

Yes, that was a flute. And FYI, the lead singer/flautist is Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull is the name of the band). Definitely worth a deep dive. Aqualung is a must. Cross-eyed Mary is another. I also like Minstrel in the Gallery.

[@michaelreeder9931]

If you can find the live version of "Ring Out Solstice Bells". It is a really fun kind of performance.

[@robmongar1414]

The second part of the song is Black Sunday from Tull's later Album "A". I think it was probably being fine tuned during this tour.
