Jethro Tull Live Performance of The Pine Marten's Jig and Drowsy Maggie in Wurzburg
In 1989, Jethro Tull was in a fascinating phase of their career, embracing a unique blend of progressive rock and folk. The live recording of "The Pine Marten's Jig / Drowsy Maggie" captures the band performing at the Karl Diem Halle in Würzburg, Germany, during a time when they were celebrating their rich history while continuously redefining their sound. Just a year earlier, they released the album "Crest of a Knave," which marked a significant return to form and even earned them their first Grammy Award. It's interesting to note that this album featured a mix of traditional and modern elements, and during the Wurzburg concert, the band's fusion of genres was on full display. With Ian Anderson's charismatic presence and clever interplay of flute and guitar, it's no wonder they captivated audiences even decades after their debut!
