Ian Anderson is rock and roll's greatest living composer. Rock on, Ian.

His voice may not have aged for the better, but his genius is still alive!

His voice has aged massively, didn’t you notice?

Happy birthday IAN..thank you for all time...

I've seen Jethro Till since 1971...more then any rock group...besides the Beatles he the best!!!

I'm finally going to get to see and hear Ian in concert.

Ian Anderson... a genuine badass. He is a legend.

A showman's showman!

so sad about the voice...but still go see them everytime they come to glasgow

This is still a great band reminds of my time in Germany so long ago in the 70's You see we all age at one point in our lives,take it from me I will be 60 very soon with aches and pains. . Time goes--flies-- by rather quickly Viva jethro!!-Pedro from Argentina-

Concours de circonstances ! J'adore cette chanson.! 50 years after

Formidable!!

The best comment o ever heard was. His vest is made of former one hit wonders

Amazing even Ian‘s voice is not as its used to be (and I saw him this year much better) thanks for 35 years making my day :)

Ian Anderson is a Great All Time musician, Jethro Tull Legend! Though his voice sounds a bit old, but his flute and guitar is as vibrant as ever.

I went to the LA Coliseum to see Tull in 1977. I was a raviness fan ! The Best Live Concert Ever ! God take care Ian. Thanks for my youth.

I was there. Tull-a-Vision!!

one of the greatest works ever written with the Hammond organ. The combination of Barres guitar work and the organ is incredible. And they obviously really learned the entire thing note for note which is really saying something.

That was awesome 👌 as!!!!! I loved it, they could still pull it off at their ages!!! Wow!!!!! You won't hear that sort of British music nowadays, very sad...

even though he vocally is weak......he is still performing...band is great...rock on Ian Anderson

We are all getting older,but wow we are still around,the one who survived. keep going Ian.

Jethro Tull lo mejor!!!

I hope to see Jethro Tull in concert in September 2012 in West Palm Beach, Florida in their Thick as a Brick 2 tour. Love this band!!!!!! Why is this band not in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?

Love ian and tull,wish martin barre would come back

A big legend and genius . Long live sir Anderson

struth, his vocals are laboured. Love Tull forever, D

well 6 years later, and seemingly no more Jethro Tull. Ian Anderson did however tour "Thick as a Brick 1 and 2" in 2012 and 2013 using just his name. After seeing Tull for some 25-30 times since 1974, it may very well be he's been saving the best for last. Yes his voice is pretty well shot after touring for 45 years, smoking for a very long time etc. However the shows last year were just great, mixing in some younger group members helped the energy level of the performance.

Saw him live in Brisbane a couple of years ago, terrific show

Poor voice dear Ian Anderson hahaha, but he remain the genius who changed the story of music!!

I like his changing in pronunciation, towards a RP one, in these latest years

I unfortunatly wasn't aroound in the 70's, but can't wait to see this in Bristol this year!!

The Thick as a Brick concert is coming to Augsburg in May !!! Finally I can hear it alive !!!

Been a fan for 40 years, seen them when thick as a brick was first relesed at dundee,s caird hall. Got tickets for next years tour at perth concert hall cant wait.

So many great bands played at the Caird Hall... Tull, The Beatles, Genesis, Yes, ELP, The Who, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC and many more... It's sad because I'm from Dundee and I could have seen them all if I was old enough haha.

Don't set your hopes too high! We are all 35-40 years older! Just saw the TAAB/TAAB2 show last night in Sheffield. They have a great young guy who does a lot of the vocals - while IA concentrates on the flute. But it works! Just enjoy it for a great concert! Hope I haven't burst your bubble; as I said, it works and is a great show!

MERAVIGLIOSI.

Lindo!!

Well I waited 35 years to see Ian Anderson in Cardiff in May 2012 - in many ways I'm sorry I didn't see Tull in the 70's. It's funny how I'm seeing all my hero's from the 70's when they are so past their sell-by date. Yes, even saw Glenn Campbell 2 years ago!! Great performer until he started to speak...... Hope Ian has enough voice left for May 2012 in Cardiff.

Great "share", THF....playlisting this one over in the States. Cheers!!!

LOVE YOU IAN

Saw his show last Sunday at Southampton, last date for British tour and wow he and his band really rocked. I know his voice is nit as strong but hey, nor is any singers when they reach their 60s. Thanks for this video.

To the fella that said wouldn't pay t see him. glad you wont be at any future concerts,the show Ian Anderson and Tull put on is fabulous, We are privaliged to have them still performing, Hope you enjoy better perfomances from other artists more up to your standard in the future.

campioni!!!!

So cute Mema loves you

in addition nowadays always the best groups/artists are the most underrated...

Talentosos, sin duda alguna.

saw him for 6 hours, missoula, Mt @ encores till 2 in A M, 77 or 78

Einfach bärig!

I think everyone should this alive as long it is possible.

Thanks for your review peranaman! It was more "theatre" than in the recent Tull/Anderson gigs, but I suppose that was what TAAB was meant to be. As I said, I think it worked!

el mejor 👍👍👍👍👍

Oops!!! I had no idea of his medical condition. I just googled him and read about a thrombosis that affects the lungs which would explain his apparent difficulty singing.

still Dynamic and Intensiv sound and lirix

1970 yılların ortasında, Anadolu'nun bozkırından İstanbul'a üniversite okumak için geldiğimde, ilk şehirli bir kızı uzaktan sevdiğimde, onun annesinin Ian Arderson hayranı olduğunu öğrendim.. Hani bende de köylü geleneği var ya, bu Tethro Tull Grubuna kanım çekti, yakınlık duydum.. Hey, benim gençlik yıllarımı depreştirmeyin!. İstanbul Fatih Sultan Mehmet'ten sonra en son benim gibi tutkulu delikanlı gördü o yıllarda o şehirde..

@rodders769 same here, going to see thick as a brick in perth next year. can't wait, i hope it really will be played in entirety

9:01 Ohh.... So sad.. We still love you though buddy!

The piper plays on!

@nick1137 Ian Anderson...timeless

He singlehandedly provoked punk. Thank you, Ian.

poor Ian, he must suffer a lot to sing at his age, but i saw them this summer and they still made an awesome performance!

Please check out the 2013 tour videos for Thick As A Brick Parts 1 and 2 - Not touring as Jethro Tell, but as Ian Anderson with band. I multimedia production of the entire Thick As A Brick album, and new music for Thick As A Brick sequel, Part 2. I agree Ian's voice appeared to be going, but from what I've seen and heard on the current tour, he has regained much of his chops and still plays a mean flute and beautiful acoustic guitar. His voice definitely is better on the current tour.

@nick1137 The first upload was removed with my old channel. A second upload never gets as many views.

genius power n (n goes to infinite) .....

It’s a bunch of old British guys rocking out for other old British guys Swag

Tull................

Just got back from TAAB in Cardiff. After all the reviews and misgivings I didn't know what to expect. Brilliant! Ian was well, er, Ian - and still playing like a hero. The band is faultless, the set was quirky, the video montage was a bit pointless, however, I waited 40 years to hear the virtuoso flautist and was blown away. If you don't 'get' prog rock then don't go. Did it work? Oh yes!! Did my wife hate it? Oh yes....................

Now there is revolution but they don't know what they're fighting oh please forgive and let's go living in the past ❔❔

Every hair that falls to Ian decreases his voice level..just kidding..Ian is awesome.

Always felt Anderson was a modern day travelling minstrel in the honored tradition of the Middle Ages. Indeed, his music reflects it even in style. Incisive, political and very listenable. Always deep thought involved, not mindless ear candy or butt wiggling crap like "musicians" put out today. Too bad once their aging audience dies off, there will be no one to listen any more, at least in my opinion. At least they had the last fifty years!

NC female catch made perfect throw to nail FS runner. 1 foot to right of second base bag, 1 foot off the ground. Girl slid into tag, my second-baseman always told me, 1x1 baby.

Challenge that old-fart, still step right up and wear tools of ignorance I do? Home-plate remains mine, want it you take it. Little old guy I remain as well. Same thing, music, sports, etc?

@kzosel he's getting old (as we all do), and his voice gets weaker. I think he used to have throat cancer or something a few years ago - it's a miracle he keeps on singing at all. maybe he's drunk, too. ;-) (which I doubt.)

31/12/2019 17:32 h ...jajajaaa 😅

I wonder if Jethro Tull was more popular than the Moody Blues.

What a tiny guitar!

NO!!! His voice has became sheet.... I remember him when was the very, really, giant and magic Ian Anderson..... I remember very well this LP and now, listening this version, I have only to cry... sorry Anderson, but I feel pain for you....please, never sing again.....with all my love.....

I was at Sheffield and the young guy,Ryan,was very good. It is very ambitious of Ian to pursue this project and the show may not be to everyone's cup of tea. However,I enjoyed it. The only problem is Ian's weak vocals ,but at least they still tour.

In answer to your question, THF....no you do NOT look a lot like "Jethro"...but your brick is much thicker than he could ever even imagine!!! LOL!! Great "share" tho...thanks!!

popeye sings!!!!

Careful there, THF....tha'll be a rush on yer flat!!!!!

His vocals may be somewhat worse than what they were, but his flute and guitar is still as prefect as the record itself.

There is something wrong with Ian Anderson. He seems to have a problem getting the words, kind of like he is struggling for air.

Getting old sucks when you have abused your body and smoked like a chimney. Cigarettes are bad and pot is worse. Justin Hayward, Paul McCartney, George Harrison...countless other rockers all suffered from all their smoking to varying degrees. Some worse then others! Like Joni Mitchell

Way to much no nose😬

La Bruja De Texcoco is better than Jethro Tull and Ian Anderson, listen and compare
