* * * * * *
Part 2 of my affectionate tribute to Tull's legendary Folk Rock Trilogy, which started with "Songs From The Wood" (1977), continued with "Heavy Horses" (1978), and ended with "Stormwatch" (1979)...
Jethro Tull -- In Concert -- Stormwatch Tour 1979
(bootleg release / excellent soundboard recording)
Part Two:
01. Instrumental Transition (00:00)
02. Orion (0:52)
03. Dun Ringill (5:08)
04. Elegy (7:46)
05. Old Ghosts (11:44)
Recorded LIVE in Holland, during the final leg of the band's Stormwatch World Tour.
Ian Anderson -- vocals, flute, acoustic guitar
Martin Barre -- electric & acoustic guitars
Barriemore Barlow -- drums, percussion
David Palmer -- synthesizers, portable organ
John Evan -- piano, organ
Dave Pegg -- bass guitar
Personal note:
In my experience, Jethro Tull always presented an excellent live show, regardless of whatever the formal line-up happened to have been. However, I was vastly fortunate enough to have seen this legendary incarnation of Tull perform many of the songs included in this bootleg recording. Evidently, the larger part of the playlist was intact from city to city, and state to state, throughout the U.S. dates, with only slight adjustments made here and there. For example: I attended one of the five concerts held at the Long Beach Arena (in Southern California), and quite happily enjoyed the event from my floor seating in the fifth row. At one point that evening, they performed "Pan Dance", which I had never heard before, and (as of that point in time) it wasn't included on any formal Tull album. (It wasn't until a couple years later when a friend gifted me with the 1976 four-song Christmas EP, on which it famously appeared.) It's interesting to note how particular songs would come in and out of the playlist. (The European phase of the 1982 tour saw the performance of "Weathercock" & "Fires At Midnight" as a medley, but unfortunately, those songs weren't part of their playlist when I saw them in concert here in the States.) As a fan of long standing, I saw the band during every tour, from 1977 thru 1991, but there were still many deep album cuts which I never got to hear performed in concert. So much the better that we've had so many wonderful live albums, anniversary box sets, and bootleg releases to help fill in some of the most notable blanks. In any case, thanks so much for watching... and you deserve an extra special thank you if you've actually read this far. -- Steve (Gothling1955)

Saw STormwatch at Capital Center, Landover, MD. Like all Tull shows, it was outstanding.

Broadsword tour '82. Stage was a viking ship, was a real theatrical show👍.

@jameskennedy721 11 месяцев назад

Nice sound quality , obviously assembled by a serious fan . This band deserves the great respect they get , but they deserve even more . The 1970 to 1980 Tull presents a huge , complex and very creative explosion . The first LP gives no hint of what is about to happen .

DAS TRAURIGE BEI JETHRO TULL IST DER TOD VON JOHN GLASCOCK 1979,SEHR TRAGISCH.DAS HAT DIE BAND ZERRISSEN.WAS DANACH KAM,WAR NICHT MEHR DASSELBE. ICH LIEBTE STORMWATCH,WAR DA 17 JAHRE ALT.SAGE AUCH DAS ES SO EINEN WIE IAN ANDERSON NIE MEHR GIBT.TULL,WAR EINE BAND DER 70ER.EINE DER BESTEN KLAR. DAS ALBUM WAR DÜSTER,ES WAR EINE VORAHNUNG DAS DIE BAND SICH VERÄNDERN WIRD.MIT,A' DA GING ES DANN MIT NEUER BAND- BESETZUNG WEITER.ABER JETHRO TULL WAR NIE MEHR SO ALS MIT MARTIN BARRE,JOHN GLASCOCK, JOHN EVAN,DEE PALMER UND DER BESTE DRUMMER BARRIE BARLOW. WAR EINE SCHÖNE ZEIT.❤😂😢😮

@@PeterHuebnerHallo. Stimme dir vollumfänglich zu, zumal Ians Stimme ab 84 immer schlechter wurde, und in den letzten Jahren fast tot ist. Mir bricht es jedesmal das Herz, wenn ich ihn live höre! Gerade Ians Stimme war so wichtig für die Emotionen der Titel und Darbietung. Wie singt Neil Young..Hey hey my my Rock'n Roll can never die..LGr aus Berlin 🎶🎸❤️

I've seen 44 Jethro Tull concerts this was one of my favorites I just happen to like the songs a whole lot. Of course the thick as a brick tour is my all-time favorite. Thanks for posting this concert

@gothling1955 5 лет назад

William Baldridge Wow! I envy your many Tull concert experiences, that's for sure. How exciting! In retrospect, I wish I had gone to see them much earlier than '77 (would've loved to have seen the "Passion Play" tour) -- also wish I had gone more than once per tour. Still, we have some really amazing memories, huh? The "Stormwatch" tour was definitely a high point, and the regrettable end of an era. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@PatrickMcDonald-JTull 14 дней назад

1st show TAAB '72 since then about 60 x's, last time in Boston Oct. '23. Exquisite musicianship in ALL aspects. RR HOF F'off. Met Ian in '88 in Inverness, Scotland (see photo). That's outside his fish Factory. Then next year backstage when he signed photo along with Martin. Happy 77th. Never too Old to Rock-n-Roll !!!!!!!!!!!

@alexandersmelik5429 6 лет назад

I really can't exactly tell why Stormwatch is my most favourite album by JT. Maybe it's because of the great production, combined with outstanding songwriting, the complexity and diversity of the tunes? No idea...but what i know is that Elegy will be played as last farewell on my funural. This tune just got everything i love so much about Tull. It just spreads a warm, cosy feeling between sadness and sanguinity. Hard to describe, but everybody who ever heard this tune and fell in love with it will probably know what i mean. Can't wait to hear the Steven Wilson mix of this one, as well as the rest of this outstanding album. He better delivers his best work to date ;-) Thx gothling1955 for sharing this with us!

@gothling1955 6 лет назад

Alexander Smelik Thank you so much for watching, and for leaving such a splendid comment. Yes, "Stormwatch" is in a class by itself, no question. As the last album of a widely regarded trilogy (although there is talk that this string of musical releases ought to include [-A-] as well, despite the abrupt changes in band members), it so beautifully complimented the two British Folk Rock ventures which came before it, but also went further to conjure an identity all its own. The album was magnificent, the concert was legendarily brilliant, and it was my pleasure to share these vintage live recordings with all of those whom continue to adore classic Tull.

@absolutelypositively 10 месяцев назад

That brought a tear to my eyes. Stormwatch was college. I’m now 65. And to think time flies so quickly. I hope wherever we go that it’s all just a dream and that I’ll still get to hear my friends in this band not for the last time. And yes. Great video. Thanks very much. Unfortunately Stormwatch was one of the only tours I ever missed starting with War Child.

Richtig. Da war seine Stimme noch sensationell, ab 84 ging es leider sehr früh bergab. In den letzten Jahren geht es garnicht mehr. Ich liebe die Band seid 50Jahren, aber es quält mich. MfG

@stevepila2731 6 лет назад

Steffan Pila Fantastic Live Version of "Orion". Thank you for posting this. Can't wait to see Stormwatch get a deluxe edition treatment. Thank you!!!

@gothling1955 6 лет назад

Steve Pila I saw Tull perform a very early arrangement of "Dark Ages" (with some additional lyrics) the second time I went to see them during their "Heavy Horses" tour. That was the last time I saw John Glasscock playing with them. Then, with the "Stormwatch" tour, it ultimately got rearranged and trotted out yet again. However, "Orion" really is a wondrous gem, and it's amazing to hear it sounding as good as it did on record (or even a bit better) performed live. I just love those more wistful moments in it. And yes, the "Stormwatch" deluxe edition ought to be pretty spectacular... Thanks so much for watching!

@stevepila2731 6 лет назад

I agree. Orion is one of Jethro Tull's most Powerful Gems. Jethro Tull did perform a early version of Dark Ages during the "Songs From The Wood" Tour, so that is pretty cool. I do agree with you one thing and that is the deluxe Edition of the "Stormwatch" album, so Thank you!!!

@gothling1955 6 лет назад

Steve Pila You're quite welcome. I'm very grateful that you stopped by to watch and to listen. I'm always thrilled to be able to connect with Tull fans so as to share our affection for their music.

@portcullis5622 6 лет назад

'Orion' is a wonderful song, and it is a song that often enters my head when I am out fishing after dark on winter's evenings, when the sky clears, and Orion becomes visible, looking enormous. One of my all time favourite songs (also from 'Stormwatch') is 'Flying Dutchman', but I have never heard a live version. Does anyone know if they ever performed it live.

@gothling1955 6 лет назад

Portcullis Thanks so much. And I agree completely about "Flying Dutchman", it was one of my top favorites immediately upon getting the album back in '79. And as it happens, yes, they did perform it during some of the '79 concert dates, during the opening Stormwatch block. It seems they would occasionally drop "Old Ghosts" from the playlist, then inserted "Flying Dutchman". Here's a link to an audience recording from that tour, and you'll find "Flying Dutchman" 25 minutes in. Sadly, it's not a soundboard recording, but it's better than nothing. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LrrgW9S4THo.html

@twish1999 6 лет назад

Amazing! Gosh this takes me back to my youth

@gothling1955 6 лет назад

Thank you, Twish. Such wonderful memories, huh? Yes, it's very nostalgic for me as well, remembering all of the times I got to go see Tull in concert over the years. For me, it was always a very big deal, I really loved them. Regrettably, I was something of a late bloomer, live event-wise (first outing was during their "Songs From The Wood" tour -- and I was hooked thereafter). However, my affection for their album releases goes all the way back to 1969, seemingly a lifetime ago. Anyway, this being the 40th anniversary of the band's much-beloved Folk Rock trilogy ('77 thru '79), I definitely wanted to mark the occasion with some ambitious uploads, spotlighting Tull in their highly formidable prime. BTW, sometime this weekend, I'm gonna upload an additional highlight segment from the same concert, which will spotlight a handful of the really wonderful Rural / English tunes from that evening's concert playlist -- along with some of the bitingly amusing between-song-chatter that Ian and the boys were so well-known for... *HUGS!* from me & Patricia.

@twish1999 6 лет назад

I was never lucky enough to see them play live, but their music was special to me back then and now still. Hugs back from me to both of you, and keep on making your videos! :-) x hugs x

@rshangrila 6 лет назад

Thank you so much, Steve. I've lost count but I must have seen JT/IA at least 30 times and I remember this concert (Seattle). I was 26. Thanks for spinning me back down the years!

@gothling1955 6 лет назад

rshangrila You're more than welcome. You're the exact sort of viewer I hoped to connect with while planning these vintage concert highlights. It's amazing how magnificent Tull proved to have been during their '77 / '78 / '79 tours. (Sure, they were doubtless brilliant prior to that, in terms of their live performances -- but '77 was my first time, I was hooked, and that whole period really made a huge impression upon me.) Such wonderful memories.

@gothling1955 6 лет назад

Thanks so much for the kind words. And of course, you're more than welcome. Just wanted to do something extra special for the dyed-in-the-wool fans out there. Really glad that you enjoyed the post. Yes, all these years after the fact, I'm really thankful that I was able to see those Tull tours that I have -- although I've always secretly kicked myself for having missed the "Passion Play" tour. Oh well, them's the breaks.

@RealDiaz 6 лет назад

gothling1955 Yeah Passion Play tour was the pinnacle I think. I'm glad at least there is some grainy unsynced footage of that most amazing tour here on You Tube!!! Cheers

"...a thousand miles away." Sigh.

@gothling1955 6 лет назад

rshangrila One of the most poignant / heartache-inducing lyrics to be found in just about any Tull song, I'd say (apart from maybe "Beside Myself", the story behind that song is without doubt a profoundly sad / tragic affair -- then again, several other examples begin to occur to me as well). I've always found this section of "Orion" to be quite haunting, just as you appear to. And for what it's worth, I was really conscious of trying to find just the right image to help underline that regret-tinged fact here... Anyway, thanks so much for watching and commenting!

@rshangrila 6 лет назад

You captured it perfectly, my friend. I also love how the Tull silhouette appears atop Dun Ringhill. I hope to visit the site one day and will see it in my mind's eye once again. We who "get it" are members of a special fraternity. I visited Minety last summer with my family and even had a glass at the Turnpike Inn which was suitably horrible. It is as Ian portrays it and lies on the corner just across the road from his estate not far from Wooten Basset Town. My family tolerates and humors such devotional sojourns but will never understand the resonance I feel as I "kick through the wet leaves lying all along the station road." It is gratifying to think that there are, perhaps, some out there like yourself who do.

THE VERY BEST TULL THK AS A BRICK THRU STRMWATCH..THEN ORIG LINEUP THRU AQU.LUNG..1 THRU AQUA LUNG BAND/ALBUM HAD THE ORIG .WOODSY Acuostic tull sound .imo

@user-dr7bx3uo6z 10 месяцев назад

Yes, Ian was a brilliant musician and frontman. I don't question that truth. But I question his ability to get along with other people, both other musicians and media. Tull became a revolving door of bassists, drummers, and keyboard players following Stormwatch. And currently I would rather the band disband than continue these concerts where his vocals are that of a screeching hyena!
