Best court jester ever

Not sure about "fit right in" ...I always thought a lot of his lyrics were tongue-in-cheek insults to the Church Of England and the accepted "norms" of British high society. Free speech wasn't exactly a right back then. He would indeed be a master of the Lute, Lyre, Harpsichord and Flute. But I have a feeling he would be compelled to speak his mind in his songs. They would excommunicate him on his way to Sunday School which is nothing compared to what the King did Monday⚰

@@PsychoBunny61957RB, perhaps or maybe he would just have been banished from the village or at least from Piccadilli square.

True, he would have fit right in at our local Renaissance Faire

Thank goodness for that! I’d hate to have missed all these glorious years of his music and wit.

Me too!

And mine 🙏

Brilliant observation

Someone just gave me a thumbs-up on my comment it just so happens I happen to be watching Jethro Tull from 1976 from Tampa Bay Florida just got it in the mail yesterday on DVD very hard to find if you're a jet Rotel lover try to find this DVD it is nothing less than fantastic picture and sound quality are superb with all his old band mates Martin Barre John glasscock John Evans Barry Barlow David Palmer this is volume one I'm going to try my hardest to try to find volume two

I meant to say Jethro Tull lover it sometimes it just comes out wrong but you got to drift

Grandi bicipiti femorali

He and Jon Anderson (YES). Both still sounding amazing!

He's got copd. Bad lungs from all the smoke machines. Sad.

So heaven, not so well

@@watershipdown3630 Gotta agree- they really were something special! Totally unique, and have stood the test of time. And yeah- I can still sing the whole Songs From The Wood album while walking alone in the forest, like I did back in high school 🙂

I came down from the sky to cry you a song...that is TULL

i guess it is quite off topic but does anyone know a good place to watch newly released movies online ?

@Darius Gideon I would suggest flixzone. Just search on google for it =)

Comprendo y comparto ese sentimiento por Jethro tull tengo lp originales de ellos, CDs originales, mp3 en cantidad es más tengo el Aqualung 1971 original, el stormwatch 1979,el crest of a Knave 1989,el roots to branches y otros más simplemente únicos e impresionantes pero falta Marti Barre en guitarras.

Must be Jonathan Noyce who was then in JT regular band.

@@thomaspricker9142 six strings-bass player here is David Goodier , he is the Jethro Tull bassist (official)

Hello Guillermo

@@jugoldman2230 Hola, cómo andas?

@@guillermolacretta9627 well thank you and enjoying listening to jethro tull and trying to learn some songs on the guitar 🎸 como estas?

What?

It is a parlor guitar, as a guitar player myself I can tell you they're not for everyone's taste, they have a distinct sound and as you can see they're much smaller.

@@TheLeadSled Thanks for the answer; I've wondered about his tiny guitar for a while

I saw a violin analog called a pocket fiddle used around the time of the British Colonies in America.

Too nice to rock'n'roll, too nice to die with JT!! мне очень повезло с JT бывал на их концертах не раз!!

and he's not standing on one leg when he plays flute so much lately

@@danstrayer111 great times! That and his facial expressions were amazing! He knew hoe to entertain for sure! I do miss that side of Ian though.

Hee hee
