Jethro Tull
Live Performance of Circus by Uriah Heep featuring Ian Anderson in London
In this electrifying live recording from November 30, 1999, Ian Anderson takes the stage at Shepherd's Bush Empire in London, performing 'Circus' with Uriah Heep. This was a period when Jethro Tull was experiencing a notable transformation, having recently released 'Dot Com' in 1999, their first studio album in over four years. It showcased a shift towards a more modern sound while retaining Anderson's signature flute work and poetic lyrics. Interestingly, this collaboration with Uriah Heep marks a notable fusion of progressive rock's legendary acts, as both bands have a rich history of blending genres. By this time, despite various lineup changes and shifting musical trends, Anderson and Tull's legacy endured, underscoring a vibrant, if transitional, moment in their storied career.
