Jethro Tull
Jethro Tull Live Performance of My God at Palais des Sports, Paris
On May 7, 1975, Jethro Tull performed 'My God' at the Palais des Sports in Paris, right in the midst of their creative peak. This concert came just a year after the release of their critically acclaimed album 'Aqualung,' which helped solidify their reputation and introduced a more progressive rock sound. Interestingly, 'Aqualung' tackled themes of religion and social issues, echoing the lyrical depth of 'My God.' The band was known for their theatrical performances, often blending rock with folk influences, and this live recording captures their intensity and Ian Anderson's iconic flute playing perfectly. By then, Jethro Tull had carved out a unique niche in the rock genre, often defying conventions and pushing boundaries, making this performance a special moment in their trajectory.
