Jethro Tull - "Protect and Survive" Rare version with Eddy Jobson solo Part 1

Awesome and rare version of "Protect and survive", live at the Sports Arena Los Angeles on 11/12/1980
Fotos are from the era 1979-1983, with one or two exceptions, since it´s very hard to find many fotos just from 1980.

So what, I get to look at a picture?

@BARRIEMOREBARLOW Nobody forces you to

Pic around 7:00... space men in casualwear? Somehow it fits the era, early 1980s. Seems like for the first time in the band's history they must have been listening to A&R promo guys. 'Ian-as-Aqualung' definitely cleaned up... moved w/ the times... no microbes allowed! Guess he rejected all this soon enough.

[Semente200]

I used to think like that as well, but with the time i realized that "A" is an excelent album and quite unfairly treated by most of the fans.

Additionally, they went into 'Uniform' from here and into Mark Craney's drum solo... posted anywhere?

How does one get a copy of the Original Broadcast? And why doesn't Ian release the video, parts of which are on the poorly edited Slipstream? Ray? You out there?

Nice pictures, nice post.

@Semente200 I ws soooo pissed at him when "A" came out because of the mass personel changeover of the best band I ever heard or he ever had (IMO) that I never gave it a chance. There are some great tracks on "A" but all in all it pales in comparison to hes previous 7 or so albums before that. I later found out the real story behind that changeover & have long forgiven my man IAN:-)

I used to amuse myself by playing the LP at very loud volumes & jamming along on the drumset. I did a decent job as an amateur, but Tull has always inspired me, especially "A." Brilliant. Ian said that he began this work intending it to be a solo album before realizing that he was actually recording a Tull record. That story always makes me laugh.
