Jethro Tull - 'BBC Radio 1 Live In Concert' (Windsong).......2006-03-16

Yet,another title I've been wanting to sink my claws into for quite sometime now.Literally,I believe it's been like ten years(I'm not kidding,either)since this title was released as a limited edition on the Griffin label.Anyone know if they're even still in existence?Anyway,I just recently got my own copy of 'BBC Radio 1...' and I'm very impressed with it.I'm now discovering how many live Jethro Tull titles are available out there.This gig took place on October 8,1991 at the Hammersmith Odeon.All ten tracks MORE than gives the fans what they came for,like "Minstrel In The Gallery"(although we get a mere snippet of the classic)along with "Cross Eyed Mary","Rocks On The Road","Tall Thin Girl","Thick As A Brick","A New Day Yesterday" and "Blues Jam".Line-up:Ian Anderson-flute,mandolin,acoustic guitar&vocals,Martin Barre-guitar,Dave Pegg-bass,Martin Allcock-keyboards and Doane Perry-drums(didn't realize Perry had been with Tull this long).A must-have.Recommended.

My Faves.......2004-06-18

Jethro Tull are my favorite band, or they were until I discovered Britney Spears. But aside from that, they still rate. The good thing about their concert albums is that they are redundant! The original Jethro Tull was a guy in the Middle Ages who hung out in Sherwood Forest with Will Scarlet, and this so impressed Tull's lead singer, Andy Milligan, that he copied Scarlet's dress, cod piece and singing style (clearly evident in "Whitch's Promise" and "North Sea Oil") and took up flute lessons. Deeply influenced by legendary bluesman Cicero Jones (named after Porky Pig's first cousin) he also used to stand on one leg like a flamingo when he played and this contributed to the brainstorm he had about doing ads for Deep Vein Trombitulation, encouraging more people to discover the joys of that condition. On the new concert dvd "Living With The Past" we can see tasteful glimpses of him messing up the ads and we can laugh hysterically. This particular cd was done in 1991 and even though it seems you've heard these songs before, you probably have.

Nice surprise!.......2002-01-12

This live disc from 1991 is a surprisingly terrific recording. The 80's Tull recordings were often spoiled by overproduction and as a result quickly sounded dated. However, with both of the early nineties live recordings, this date and the fine A Little Light Music, Tull exposed the fact that, in a different context, the material worked well. Still, the cut selection on both discs emphasises their entire body of work with a handful of tunes from that time period. It works well. The band consists of Anderson, Barre, Pegg, Allcock and Perry. At this point, they were finely attuned to one another, making for rich and tight performances. Anderson's flute playing is particularly strong (flawed-but at that time improving-technique and all) as is Barre's guitar work. Much to enjoy here. Highly recommended if you can get it...Simon

Another good live album of Tull.......2001-05-13

The 1978 live album "Bursting out" is the best live CD of the band, and represents the "Songs from the wood" and "Heavy horses" era (in my opinion it was also the best band Anderson ever had). The 1984 Hammersmith live album is a very good one, heavy-metal sounded, fantastic recording (by the BBC), but it was taken during the worst years of the band - the years of "Under wraps". That one is from "Crest of a knave" years, and also was taken by the BBC that, as usual, made a great work. The quality is great, The album is good too, includes a good short version of "Thick as a brick" (better than the one in "Bursting out"), a nice (but not more) mix of "A new day yesterday" and "Bouree" (did i spell it right?), and not a very good mix of "Ministral in the galery" and "Crossed eye Mary". The rest are good, but Tull was at its best on the late 70's, so in that late 80's show, something was missing.
