Jethro Tull

In July 1986, during a vibrant period for Jethro Tull, they performed 'Black Sunday' at the Inselwiese in Dinkelsbühl, Germany. This was right around the time they released the album 'Crest of a Knave' in 1987, an album that marked a pivotal moment in their career, showcasing a harder rock edge and securing a Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance in 1989. Interestingly, 'Crest of a Knave' also helped the band reconnect with their audience after a somewhat experimental phase. The Dinkelsbühl concert stands as a testament to their live energy and the evolution of their sound, full of rich instrumentation and Ian Anderson's iconic stage presence. It's a fascinating snapshot that ties back to their commitment to musical growth and excellence, even as they embraced a new chapter with fresh influences.
