Jethro Tull

In the summer of 1986, Jethro Tull was riding a wave of creativity and musical exploration. Their album 'A' had been released just a year prior in 1980, showcasing a more synth-driven sound that was a departure from their earlier, folky rock roots. This live performance in Dinkelsbühl highlights the band's dynamic evolution, perfectly capturing the blend of progressive rock and acoustic elements fans had come to love. Interestingly, despite the shift in sound, Ian Anderson's signature flute playing remained a hallmark of their work, bridging past and present for the audience. This concert, like many from this era, reflects not only the strength of their live act but also a time when Jethro Tull was navigating changes in the music industry and embracing new artistic directions.
