Jethro Tull

In July 1991, Jethro Tull graced the stage at the Harbiye Cemil Topuzlu Açıkhava Tiyatrosu in Istanbul, marking their first-ever concert in Turkey. This performance came shortly after the release of their 1991 album 'Catfish Rising,' which showcased a blend of hard rock with their signature progressive elements. The band was navigating through a transformative phase, with a sound that reflected both their rich history and a contemporary twist. Interestingly, this concert was noted for its enthusiastic audience, who celebrated Tull's return to the global stage after a relatively quiet period following their 1987 album 'Crest of a Knave.' With Ian Anderson's distinctive flute work and engaging stage presence, the show captured the essence of Tull's evolving artistry, solidifying their place in the hearts of fans in Turkey.
