Well this is a record I have been listening since I was a kid, I remember my stepfather bought it to his brother and I made me a copy on a tape.
But this is seriously one of the best live records of all time in my collection, and a compliment to a highly instrumentally accomplished band with a very original repertoire.
It has the most killing take of the "Ministrel in the gallery" "Aqualung" and "Locomotive breath" I have ever heard, including some great soloing and Ian Anderson is singing his ass of not to mention his trademark flute. I can't comment about the best of the band because they had so much changes in the lineup, just that Martin Barret kills the guitar.
It took me till 1994 till I was able to see Jethro Tull live in a city close to the ass of the world in the country you will never want to visit, the sound sucked balls and I couldn't understand a word (well my English was far from today at that time so maybe I wouldn't understand a word anyway).
But this live take is something that I seriously recommend even to anyone not familiar with the band - the best way to know for sure..
Don't get confused with the extravagant looks of the band - this is no glam.. it's just year 1978
