Jethro Tull
Jethro Tull Live Performance of 'Black Sunday' from Out In The Green
In July 1986, Jethro Tull was riding a wave of creativity and resilience after releasing the album 'Crest of a Knave' a couple of years earlier. This album, which came out in 1987, marked a significant moment for the band as it won the Grammy for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance, showcasing their ability to evolve within the music scene. By the time they performed 'Black Sunday' at Inselwiese in Dinkelsbühl, Germany, the band was entering a new phase of their career, blending progressive rock with a harder edge. Fun fact: this performance was significant not just for its energetic delivery, but also coincided with Tull's quest to maintain relevance in the ever-changing landscape of rock music during the mid-80s. Fans could feel the synergy on stage, as Ian Anderson’s flutes danced among the hard-hitting guitar riffs, embodying the band's unique blend of genres.
