In September 1995, Jethro Tull was at a pivotal stage in their career, having just released the album "Roots to Branches" earlier that same year. This album marked a fresh musical direction for the band, incorporating elements of world music and reflecting lead singer Ian Anderson's interest in various genres. The live recording at the Sands Theatre showcases their ability to blend rock with nuanced acoustic textures, demonstrated in tracks that resonate deeply with fans.
