Jethro Tull - Hunt By Numbers Live Performance at Hammersmith Apollo

Venue: Manchester Apollo Location: Manchester, England, United Kingdom Date: November 20, 2001

In November 2001, Jethro Tull took the stage at the Manchester Apollo, delivering a riveting performance of "Hunt By Numbers". This live recording came shortly after the release of their 2001 album, *The Jethro Tull Christmas Album*, which marked a unique turn in their extensive discography. While the album featured seasonal songs, it also celebrated the band's knack for blending rock with folk and progressive elements, showcasing their eclectic sound. The band was in a reflective phase, not only celebrating their storied past but also exploring new musical territories. Did you know that lead vocalist Ian Anderson often crafted lyrics that mirrored societal observations? This concert underscores how they effortlessly evoke emotion, making even a track like "Hunt By Numbers" resonate with listeners as they revisited their rich history.
