First saw Tull live with Thick As a Brick. Then came Passion Play. We sat in our seats totally unaware of what was about to happen. The Ballerina, the haunting opening cords. We were totally mesmerized. The audiance seemed to remain focused throughout. The music demanded it. At the end as the applause died Anderson steps up and says.
" Thank you very much. Now settle back for an evening of lighthearted entertainment with Jethro Tull!" The place went nuts! I remember it well.

Chicago 15th row,sorry Kurt.

first half of Thick, is fantastic.2nd half a bit of a re-working of the first half though not as good,
passion play is more complicated, and , yes , some might say disjoined, but i feel the lt gets better as it goes on and the last 8-9 minutes is superlative.
Purely my opinion, all their stuff is brilliant !

I'll probably ruffle some feathers saying this, but I feel this album is almost a parody of Thick As A Brick. Some good parts, but it's disjointed as hell.

I love it so much. Always takes me to a special place.

Saw Passion Play concert. It was awesome. This video looks nothing like we saw however.

Am I only female brave enough to EMPHATICALLY state that dear Ian was really, mmmm, shall I say " hot" back then? Or am I just becoming "lecherous" in my "old age??" What showmanship & charisma! Not to mention great sense of humor &



Remarkable! 0:31 to 3:29 seems to be, not from Tulltapes, but from my own video that I worked very hard to sync up to live music. I tried to make it believable. Now you download it to use and it's not synced up anymore and not live,...whats the point? And to top it off you give credit for my work to someone else.
Remarkable!

I did get it from Tulltapes. Where Tulltapes got it from is another matter.

So my post "Jethro Tull 73 8mm" was edited into Tulltapes APP when you received it from him? When was that?

Yes brilliantly inventive music.I first heard this masterpiece back in 82.Still my favourite Tull album.I love the film that goes with the interlude piece "The Hare Who Lost His Spectacles" - saw that for the first time today on here. It's a real shame that these days all 70's Prog just seems to be lumped together, as being pompous,pretentious,self-indulgent etc.Cause it means that some fantastic,original & innovative music is not getting anything like the recognition it deserves.

These things go in cycles.
You can see The Hare Who Lost His Spectacles film on the Jethro Tull Anniversary DVD.
We haven't seen the last of Prog Rock yet.
