Its so hard to believe thaere are people who havent heard jethro tull.

"Cause you were bred, for humanity......And sold...... to society." One of the greatest lyric lines ever written.

One of my all time favorite Tull songs great songs since 1974 ,the instruments all just blend . An amazing arrangement .

One of the world's most underrated bands. Jethro Tull is primarily a progressive rock band that incorporates folk, jazz, classical, blues, hard rock, soft rock, pop rock, medieval, and more with brilliance & top tier talent. Ian Anderson is a genius and arguably rock's number one showman for live concert performances.

Wow....the 'Tull', a rabbit hole of joy! There's so much to explore.

Love that song. Great reaction thanks.

In a pantheon of Rock & Roll Legends. Jethro Tull, is "Piped Piper" of them all. You can not listen without his tale touching your heart.

Jethro Tull Ian Anderson - vocals, flute, acoustic guitar, saxophone Martin Barre - electric guitar, Spanish guitar John Evan - piano, organ, synthesizers, accordion Jeffrey Hammond - lead vocals and spoken word (on "Sealion II"), bass guitar, string bass Barriemore Barlow - drums, percussion

"Looking for a sign the Universal Mind has written you into the Passion Play" - great lyrics

It's always a pleasure to see a young person listen and FEEL Ian's music. They will realize that Ian Anderson was the most prolific consummate Rock star and no one remotely comes close to his excellence as a composer, and performer. He was EPIC. An enigma. The greatest rock performer of all time

Tull !!!! Let's Go !!!!

"Enjoyful" works for me. Jethro Tull is a deep well to drink from. I look forward to your next adventure with them.

Stand Up & Benifit my favorite albums by Tull. One of the greatest musicians on the planet. Ian Anderson!

You'd really enjoy the band's classic Aqualung and Thick as a Brick albums, the first a rocker and the second a progressive rock landmark. Ian Anderson was the band's leader, singer, songwriter, acoustic guitarist and flutist. He surrounded himself with tremendous musicians, including Martin Barre on lead guitar and various great drummers and keyboardists. The instrument you mentioned is called an accordion in English.

One of my favourite songs ever. Always loved when the flute an the bass kick in.

This band is legendary they craved out their niche in rock/folk, they are unmistakable when you hear them. Ian Anderson lead vocal, plays acoustic guitar and flute, is a genius.

My favourite music from my favourite group

Great reaction to some rather off-piste Jethro Tull. I personally love the War Child Album , it has some great tracks and is very reflective of the band on the way up to their peak. You should now take in a live performance of just about anything they do , it is sure to blow your mind. Ian Anderson was among the most entertaining front men of rock when he was in his prime and the rest of the band ( in various line-ups ) were always super-talented. More JT Please

More Jethro Tull please

it was so cute when she reacts to the flute--- she truly doesn't know what to expect!

I love that this song is your introduction to Jethro Tull. It’s my personal favorite of theirs. Keep discovering them. You’re in for an experience.

SO many great songs by Jethro Tull! One of the most creative rock bands ever. Ian Anderson was well known for his incredible flute solos. 🙂 Thanks for sharing, Verdy!

This is a top tier JT song, although there are dozens of others in the top tier. Keep exploring!

What a way to start! Off the beaten path a little bit but you get the Jethro Tull feel.

Thank you, Ms. 🙏👑 Ian Anderson is a prodigy and one of the forefathers of Prog

I love the way Ian Anderson combines Scottish music with hard rock or heavy metal. And British folk music along with it. I love it. Always have. And I am a Mexican American.

growing up in southern ontario as a teen in the 70's many young Quebecois would travel here to work in the tobacco fields along side us and almost to a man they all seemed to be huge Jethro Tull fans! that worked for me as i was too...........

Omg it is a must to react to Tull live!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing J.T. masterpiece!

Wow, such a sweet reaction by a truly beautiful girl

I've been hoping to see some Jethro Tull reactions! Thick as a Brick is a great one to watch a live performance.

Jethro tull..is great 🎸

I just realized I'm always miming the fingering of various instruments too, especially while listening to Jethro Tull!

Ian Anderson is the greatest all around talent in the history of rock! No one is close!

Enjoy your journey with Jethro Tull ! There is so much to explore. Folk, hardrock, middle age minstrel songs, little bit of jazz. They never did music for the charts. Only for their fans. Everybody has it's own favourite albums. First they were on the bluesy trip, then they became rockier. They tried to integrate synthezisers (later Ian Anderson said that they decided to keep the bassman Dave, hihi). My favourite albums are "Songs from the Wood" in one row with "Heavy Horses" and "Stormwatch". Have fun and enjoy...

Jethro Tull is an amazin' band 'n I'm certain you'll love takin' a deeper dive. I've seen 'em in concert many, many times-the first bein' in 1970 for the Benefit tour. Please check out the album Benefit-their 3rd. A classic! But they have so many classics. Nice to see you hearin' 'n enjoyin' their music for the first time.

Verdy 🥰 my girl this is one of my favorite songs I am so glad you have arrived to the Jethro Tull rabbit hole you ain’t heard nothing yet! Here are some songs you want to check out Budapest, One White Duck, Reasons For Waiting, Look Into The Sun, Bouree, Nursie, Dun Ringill, Mother Goose, Life Is A Long Song, Wond’ring Aloud, My God, Farm On The Freeway and of course Thick As A Brick dig in enjoy👍🏽🙏🏽✌🏽❤️

Accordian is the english word too. Please do more Jethro Tull. Any of the albums below, in my message below. Or if just a song, I recommend "Mother Goose" "Minstrel in the Gallery" "My God" "Locomotive Breath" "Teacher" "Wind up" "One Brown Mouse"/ "Passion Play and Thick as a Brick" are my favorite songs by them, (each of these last two are one whole musical piece, one song per album!!) Scott Rowland

Coming in the top 5 of favorite Tull songs.

Let’s hear some Tull - Heavy Horses!

I've subscribed so I can see you react to more Jethro Tull. They mix rock, folk, jazz, and classical while giving it a feel of being played by minstrels transported from the 16th century. As others have said, you have got to see a live performance. I too would suggest "Thick As A Brick".

I agree with other comments. Jethro Tull is a band thats well worth exploring.

Ian Anderson, lead singer is known for his flute playing

It’s been awhile since I’ve heard this album…Ian Anderson I have always felt even now is a genius. his ability to weave a narrative with music and lyrics is absolutely brilliant…what fun it is to hear the music of my youth…Bravo Verdy…

Can’t go wrong with the brilliant Ian Anderson. 💚

Their late 60s and 70s material is legendary and they are a genre unto themselves, a stew of hard rock, folk, jazz, classical, blues and new age, and all ultimately a vehicle for Ian Anderson's musical genius. Try Locomotive Breath, one of their very best. Initial shout outs to Ian Anderson (singer, song writer, flute, acoustic guitar, various horn instruments) and Martin Barre (lead guitar) for keeping them going into this century with quality music throughout their careers. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎷🎹🎶

I've always loved this song. It's so upbeat and has a steady, persistent elevation of the pace and feeling. The unbelievable balance of all of these instruments as they are introduced is just absolutely amazing. Great song.

Yes, accordion. And, don't forget the tabla! And there was also a hint of regular drums. Yeah, with Jethro Tull there's GOTTA be a flute! Now, try "Black Satin Dancer".

A great song by one of the very best bands of my life, fantastic concerts too. I saw them 4 times between 1975 and 2016. The albums from "Stand Up" "Benefit" "Aqualung" "Thick as a Brick" "Passion Play"(my favorite) "Bursting Out" "Heavy Horses" "Minstrel in the Gallery" "Songs from the Wood" all great. Kind regards Scott Rowland

yeah I am almost sure you would enjoy the entire side one of Thick as a Brick

It is nice to see that you really hear the music. I find that when I am listening to music my focus switches from instrument to instrument, then at times I try to just listen to the overall sound. If it is a favorite song, I will listen to the whole song focusing on one thing at a time, (focus on like the bass or drums for the whole song). By the way Tull was great in concert!

I LOVE the War Child album.

Love it!new instruments enter in each new verse!!! brilliant!

This album has a special place in my heart and memories, my oldest brother owned it and whenever he left the house I used to borrow it to play and put back without his knowledge lol I felt so sneaky he he but years later he said he always knew. Happy memory, loved seeing your reaction. Thanks for giving me this reminder of things lost 🙂

Absolutely love it when the bass comes in. Comes driving at you

Love this song. Thanks for reacting to it. I remember that we sang this song in grade school music class.

Great reaction Verdy! You must listen to more Jethro Tull. So much good, unique music.

he is great to watch live.💚🎸🤘

Long time favorite. When young I could sign along not today! Enjoy your trip into Jethro Tull!

The clear and simple joy on your face when the flute starts, delightful. Jethro tull were among the most fearless in terms of adding the instruments they wanted to their songs. Love you sister, thanks for this.

I'm glad you like this song. I'm a massive, lifelong Tull fan and this is my older brother's favorite Tull song. For good reason.

YES, a paradise for instruments!

my fav JTULL song thank you VERDY

Verdy great job with your reaction to Skating Away On Thin Ice Of The New Day from Jethro Tull.

Welcome to a massive rabbit hole!!! Cross eyed Mary from Aqualung is another song I'm sure you'd enjoy. Tull started off a blues band and soon became a fusion of folk,blues and rock . A really unique sound unlike any other. Check out "Heavy Horses " imho their greatest album .....BUT.....there are so many good ones!!!!! Great reaction 👍Ian Anderson ia a self taught master on the flute.

Reasons for waiting Nothing is easy Warchild Look into the summer JT always ! one of my faves !

He's making a cup of tea

A polifonia é maravilhosa!! Tudo se junta num final harmonioso numa melodia linda!! É absolutamente prazeroso!!

I love the layers on layers of sound building in this song. This is maybe my favorite Tull song.

I've been enjoying Jethro Tull for over 50 years. Under Wraps is a great album that came out in 1984, enjoy!!

One of my favorite JT tunes! Thanks for the reaction! ✌

Starting the day with a cup of very British tea!

I love that yougsters like you are loving this ❤

There's so much going on here, it's easy to miss some of the amazing lyrics, such as "Looking for some sign that the Universal Mind has written you into the Passion Play". Absolument merveilleuse.

Tull is my favorite. Thanks, Verdy!

Be sure and check out the early albums "Stand Up" and "Benefit" which have a different feel to them than the later material, but there's some brilliant arrangements I'm sure you'll appreciate. And of course, there is so much to explore ~ "Thick As A Brick", "Aqualung", "Passion Play", "Songs From The Wood" and so much more. Ian Anderson is just brilliant as a songwriter, arranger and performer and his bandmates are always top-notch and cream-of-the-crop musicians as well. Enjoy.

Do see them live. JT have been described as "a medieval folk band taken over by a gang of pirates" - about right. Peak entertainment, briiliant musicians! I must mention Songs from the Wood. Paired back,. beautiful, captivating, genius progressive folk music. This will be such a good ride! Enjoy, Verdy! :)

Warchild was the first Tull album I ever owned years ago, it was a gift from someone. I really started listening to a lot more progressive rock albums after that. There's lots of great music on the classic era Tull albums, including this one. Some great live videos floating around KZfaq also.

Not many react to this song but I love it!

It's really great when I watch a young person appreciate Tull. I wish you could have seen them live "back in the day". As others have mentioned, listen to 'Thick as a Brick'. Enjoy!

Love the accordion in this great song!!!

Ah Jethro Tull, like going to a Renaissance fair on acid.

Brilliant. Love Jethro Tull. A mixture of acoustic songs and heavy tick songs. My fave album is the concept album A Passion Play. A few YT Reactors react to live clips from the late 70s as Ian is so animated on stage.

Still a phenomenal band live, enough now……..great musicians. Probably the most intelligent rock musician of them. All Anderson’s lyrics are thought provoking . Wonderful reaction to great tune of an album which moved me when I bought it and even now.

The band was known for using some unusual instruments. One of the live versions available on KZfaq features a lute, and mandolin, with the mandolin playing the lead part. I think that's what sounds a bit like a banjo, because of its pitch. I enjoyed your reaction.

Just liked & subscribed. Fantastic reaction; the smile on your face is undeniable. Another long-time JT fan here. My 1st Tull lp was 'Thick as a Brick' which I purchased in the summer of '72. I loved that album madly; I played it over and over. Became an instant fan and bought just about every subsequent album. As stated elsewhere in the comments, I agree you are hearing a sitar, not a banjo. The sitar became a thing in late-1960s rock. In 1968, the Beatles (and other musicians) visited the Maharishi in India for meditation and enlightenment. The sitar was subsequently utilized in several Beatles' songs, and then other groups picked up on the sound.

Why on earth did the British Isles produce so much astounding music during the 70s? This is just stunningly good.

That instrument that you thought was an accordion sounded more like a concertina. It is closely related to the accordion, but is much smaller, about the size of a dinner plate, and has a hexagonal shape. It is very popular in zydeco and Cajun music of the American deep south. If you never experienced this truly unique music I implore you to do so.

'Bursting out' is one of the best LP/s ever . In my humble opinion

I took my son to a Jethro Tull concert and afterwards he said:” Wow mom, I didn’t realize you listened to great music” hahahahaha!

Ian Anderson. One of the most gifted and bizarre singer/songwriter/musician/ [and performers!] ever. This particular song drew me to this channel. Good pick!

I've always thought of this song as a secret society of people who love it and get it, like those people who made it to Devil's Tower, Wyoming in Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

Remember: Tull are a band with an incredible variety of styles. There is folk, prog, hard rock, blues, jazz, classical, synth pop period, Asian and world music. Personally I would suggest to start with some classics like Aqualung, Cross Eyed Mary, Locomotive Breath, Bourée, Thick as a Brick or Songs From the Wood

One of my favorites by them. The rhythm pulls me in.

I love how this song usually makes people smile. Can't help it.

Be warned that Jethro Tull is very diverse. The singer Ian Anderson is known for his flute playing and he is the one constant in the band which has been around with many different members since 1968. Also, they play many different types of musical styles, including Blues, Jazz, Rock, Folk and can play hard rocker or beautiful acoustic songs. The are sometimes considered a Progressive Rock Band, probably due to their albums Thick as a Brick and A Passion Play, both of with consisted of a single song split across two vinyl album sides. The albums Benefit and Stand Up are more bluesy, Aqualung is their best known album which is mainly rockers and acoustic songs. Songs from the Wood, Minstrel in the Gallery and Heavy Horses showed their folk side but still were rock albums. In the 80s they continued to evolve with the times and while not quite as successful as their late 60s and 70s albums have still been pretty good, some albums better than others.

self taught flute attack man = Ian Anderson...so listen to to one of his serious attack songs, I suggest Aqualung or my fav Locomotive Breath!!

It's hard not to smile when l listen to this song.

You need to do some live versions of their songs to see Ian Anderson perform.

Yeah she Loves It
