Jethro Tull/Ca, USA 1970 & more

From the US tour after the release of the album “Benefit” in 1970, a complete recording of the May 3rd live performance at San Fernando College in Northridge, California, with miraculous quality for an audience recording at the time. First of all, the Fillmore East performance two days before the main performance is famous as a live performance from this period, but this album, which was probably held at a relatively small venue, is recorded with vivid high-quality sound that is full of realism. The point is to be there. The first song is “Nothing Is Easy” from the album “Benefit”, which is well known at this time. The ferocious flute solo on “My God” from the album “Aqualung” released the following year, John Evan’s piano solo on the second half of “With You There To Help Me”, and the familiar “Dharma For One” “,” followed by Martin Barre’s 12-minute long, ever-changing guitar solo in the second half of the show, followed by the masterpiece “For A Thousand Mothers,” with a stable sound from beginning to end. thing. Also, check out the fact that it was right after keyboardist John Evans joined the band, and “My God”, which was unreleased at the time, had already been performed. Furthermore, the coupling DVD includes footage of the July 7th Tanglewood performance, which is known as Tull’s standard footage from this period, but is not the VHS video footage that has been in circulation until now, but the officially released footage. A must-have compilation item of the earliest Jethro Tull. DISC 1 :1. Introduction/2. Nothing Is Easy/3. My God/4. To Cry You A Song/5. With You There To Help Me DISC 2 : 1.
