@MrNachoplaza oh yeah~ isn't it awesome....i think of them as being one big happy family of music.

@allamericandiner Did you know that Tony Iommi played in Jethro Tull?

[Dirkchucklebutty]

Great clip... Martin is great

[SychadelicPsnack]

Nice piece from a great player. From 0:04-0:20 sounds like he 'borrowed' the chords from Jan Ackerman of Focus!

[allamericandiner]

if you hear some of the early tull, it actually sounds a little bit like sabbath~ love that sound of 60's and 70's metal~

and tull...so friggin awesomely gypsy-folk-metal-rock~

[TheAntman1265]

Great guitar player. Alway`s liked how Barre was more a hard rock player than Howe, Hacket or Fripp. Was nice to have such heavy rock playing in Tull`s progressive music.

[caintapi]

He created many unforgettable riffs known to rock. A very,very underrated guitarist of our time.

[diagreen]

so creative.no o9ne sounds like him.

[ShelleBelle69]

i love that les paul he has,damn sweet guitar

[12toedfeet]

@PeaceFrogMan Cornick was definitely the best bassist they ever had (although John Glascock was very good too). However, for me the drumming is a toss up between Bunker and Barlow.  It was a mistake on Anderson's part to sack Cornick. Bunker left by his own accord because he got married.

I saw Martin and Co. at least 14 times beginning with Warchild at HersheyPark Arena in PA and he is the greatest guitarist I have ever heard, live or studio. I've seen Steve Howe bunches of times, too, along with the original Skynnard, and so many guitar bands I lost count. He is the best, period. This guy can't be touched for innovativeness (though this recording is old). I also thank the dudes who uploaded this. By the way, Martin's two or three original albums/CDs, are better than Tull.

[Reinisen]

PROTO-METAL!!! which Jethro Tull was because of Mr.Barre... wow.

[SqueekyDc]

Loved live 70's Guitar solo's at full volume back in the day. Buck Dharma, Joe Perry, Alex Lifeson, and Ritchie Blackmore, come to mind and i saw them all !!!!

[nimicide]

Brilliant! Speechless! Barre really rocks!

[adozensparrows]

I was reading various posts; I think Martin's Les Paul is a 59 given to him by Jimmy Page? Please correct if I'm wrong. The rumor is Martin auditioned for the Tull job w/ Ian listening with his ear up to Martin's guitar. Anyway, whoever said Martin Barre is one of the most underrated guitarists surely speaks for many guitarists, I'm certain. Even Steve Vai has credited Barre as an early influence . . . Causing Barre to reply in an interview: "I don't see it."

[pienivla]

One of the greatest guitarists of the past quarter century.

[PeaceFrogMan1]

my personal favorite Tull lineup .... Martin Barre, Clive Bunker, Glen Cornick, Ian Anderson. :D

[CSXer]

He is SOOOOOO under rated as a guitarist.
