The music of Jethro Tull is an integral part of my life. If I were to be sent out in space, I will surely throw in couple of CDs with me - "20 Years Set", "Songs From The Wood", "Living In The Past" & if there is space left, every other CD. Starting with the Blues oriented "This Was", to the pop album "Under Wraps" and to the hard rock album "Crest Of A Knave", you got all kinds of music in their catalog. And not to mention the great Flute playing prowess of Ian Anderson - just listen to "A Little Light Music" and "Bursting Out" for live improvisations. Martin Barre is also a pretty good guitarist & an under-rated one at that "Crest Of A Knave", "Aqualung", "Benefit" etc. I do have all their albums except for "Under Wraps". I have some of the albums on tape & others on CD. And a gold LP of Aqualung.
I was fortunate enough to see them live in Atlanta in 1998. It was probably one of the exciting moment of my life. It was a fabulous one & they played almost every song that I love - to mention a few: Budapest, Bouree, Fat Man & Living in the Past. I saw them in Sunrise Theatre, Fort Lauderdale ( June 23rd, 2000 ) & House of Blues, Orlando ( June 25th, 2000 ). This was excellent to say the least. They played some old numbers like "For A Thousand Mothers", "Dharma for One" & the incredible "With You there to Help Me" with the reverse flute intro. It was a memorable weekend.
You can find the Official Tull web site below that will lead you to various other great Tull web sites. If you need any recommendations on what CD to start (they have at least 35 studio albums), send me an email!
