jethro tull...
 

just listend to some songs of them again....

i love their song " Bouree" :thumbsup

they re still alive? :thumbsup

some great music from a flute player for sure

Brings me back to high school.

Every time I read that name my mind instantly starts singing "she came in thru the bathroom window" Always wondered why i do that

I haven't listend to JT in forever time to fire up the cd's

Its my the most favourite music group and for me Mr. Andersoin is never dying legend.
I love song "strange avenues" from Rock Island album + Heavy horses is really piece of art.
Btw that bouree song is originaly composed by Mr. J.S.Bach

I still get a sick feeling in my stomach when I hear their name ever since they won the first ever Grammy award for Best Metal Performance....

Its not thier original name - Jethro Tull was an UK developer of agricultural equipment from 18century I think.
That best metal grammy award was given for Rock Island album - I will also never understand that :winkwink:

Yep. He invented the seed drill... that gadget which plants seeds in rows at the right depth.

And to others, yes the band is alive and well 36 years on and still doing about 100 concerts a year. As far as I know "Rupi's Dance" released in 2003, is Ian Anderson's latest album.

seed drill- oh yes thats it - I didn;t know the experssion :1orglaugh

never heard it, guess that shows my young age and yes i am over 18

J.Tulls were on the top the same time as Led Zepellin - thier the best years are 1971-1977 I think.
Try some of their album from that time - its interesting music , no easy compositions , variouse rythms but always a feell of strong melody.
Also the way Mr. Anderson sings is nothing ussual - he is no Frederico Bulsara but his technique is unique its way.

i dont think im much older then you but i heard them when my dad listend to them yesterday :winkwink:

Living in the past is a favorite. I really can't stand them otherwise though :)

I love them. Ian Anderson is a genious

WOW ... and I thought I was old skool.

I tend to lay the beast to rest, forever ... going back for me is either reading a history book or listening to last years house ... 60's & 70's no way, Jose!
