Jethro Tull - Fly By Night Live Performance in Budapest 1986

Venue: MTK Stadion Location: Budapest, Budapest, Hungary Date: July 2, 1986

In 1986, Jethro Tull was riding high after the release of their album 'Crest of a Knave' in 1987. This was a pivotal period for the band, as it marked their return to the forefront of rock after a couple of quieter years, blending their classic progressive rock with a touch of folk. The live recording of 'Fly By Night' from the Budapest concert, held at MTK Stadion, showcases the band's energetic stage presence and musicianship during this revival phase. It's interesting to note that 'Crest of a Knave' went on to win a Grammy for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance, making it a significant milestone in Jethro Tull's career. This tour highlighted their ability to captivate audiences worldwide, even though some reviews noted the change in sound with the evolving musical landscape of the time.
