Concert preview: Jethro Tull’s legacy goes far beyond flutes and ill-gotten Grammys By ERIC WALDEN | The Salt Lake Tribune LINK Ian Anderson, founder of the British band, kicks off Red Butte lineup with a 4 ½-decade repertoire of songs.
Being the erudite, sarcastic and self-aware person that he is, Ian Anderson knows that, to many, Jethro Tull is just that band with the guy with the flute, or the band that stole the first Hard Rock/Metal Performance Grammy from Metallica. He remains quite unfazed.
"Well, there's always gonna be people out there who know you just for something, one single song, or one album,or one little moment that they recall from a dark moment of insemination in the backseat of a beaten-up station wagon or something," the Jethro Tull founder and frontman told The Tribune in a phone interview from London. "People have their own degree of knowledge, in a way, and this one doesn't bother me, because it probably brings to the concerts people who only know one or two songs.
"I mean, I went to see Black Sabbath actually, just on their second- or third-to-last concert of their lives. And I thought, 'I'll probably recognize loads of the songs,' and actually I probably only knew about two! … In the case of many bands, I suppose that doesn't mean you don't enjoy the evening, it's just you might know two songs, you might know 10 songs. Chances are you won't really respond to every one of the 20, perhaps, songs they play in the evening. So I'm used to the fact that the audiences are very varied, and some are encyclopedic in their knowledge, in a way, of your repertoire, and others just kind of know you from seeing posters of you playing a flute while standing on one leg."
Given that the "Jethro Tull by Ian Anderson" concert set to take place this Tuesday in Salt Lake City was among the first of this year's Red Butte Garden Outdoor Concert Series to sell out, it's a fair bet the crowd in attendance will more quickly recognize the opening notes of "Aqualung" than Anderson did the distinct tritone of "Black Sabbath."
Tull last played in an official incarnation in November 2011. The previous June, Anderson had informed longtime members Martin Barre and Doane Perry that he wished to take the group in a different direction, and they would do well to start searching out new opportunities.
Now, Anderson and a hand-picked backing lineup perform from the blues/rock/folk band's catalog of about 300 songs. He's quite unsympathetic and indifferent to whatever calls there may be out there for some sort of Tull reunion.
"When anybody asks me the question, what's the difference between that and what I do now, or what I was doing 40 years ago, there isn't any! It's just different people. I keep pointing out that it's somebody else's problem having to figure out who it is or what it is," Anderson said. "But at last count, there was something like 33 different members of Jethro Tull since the band began back in January of 1968. Actually, 34 if you include the single performance by Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath when he sat in on a TV show with us. I counted them this morning, and it was 33 people who've been in the band Jethro Tull, making an album or doing a meaningful, long tour or whatever. That's a lot of folks, and obviously I can't reel 33 people — or 32 plus me — out on tour.
Nor, I hasten to add, would I want to. I couldn't afford the per diems and the plane tickets!"
It's partly a matter of logistics — how does a band that's had that many members over that many years put together a "classic" lineup, especially considering some are now dead, some are now in poor health and some simply gave up music a long time ago?
"People forget, these are folks who are 69, 70 years old, and if you haven't played your instrument for 30 years or 40 years, it's not really very easy to pick it up again. There's so many reasons under the sun. There's this idea that you have this magic reunion — it's just never, ever possible," Anderson said. "It's like saying that your favorite football team in 1972, that somehow you could get these guys to put their jerseys and their boots and helmets on and wheel them out onto a field and it'll be just like the old days. No, it wouldn't! They wouldn't last 10 minutes, and they'd be left in a heap of bones in the middle of a football field because they're ooooooold people and they can't really do that sort of thing anymore."
Another component is that Anderson only seems to understand attachment to the music itself, and not to the individuals who participated in crafting it. Sure, someone specific may have written a song, but if someone else can play it just as well, what's the difference?
"I haven't any nostalgia about reunions. To me, Jethro Tull means two things: It means the 18th-century agriculturalist who invented the seed drill, and it means a repertoire, it means the songs of 4 ½ decades of performance. That, to me, is what it's about," he said. "You love The Beatles, maybe. You don't mean you love John, Paul, George and Ringo — especially, because two of them aren't with us anymore. What you mean is you love 'Sgt. Pepper,' and you love the repertoire generally, or specifically a certain album. And that's what people really mean when they talk about it. The idea of somehow the musicians themselves being the objects of your affection … it's not a given — it might apply in some cases, but probably not many."
In addition to touring, Anderson has remained busy writing and recording new music (you can expect another album out around March) as well as new versions of old music.
This spring saw the release of "Jethro Tull — The String Quartets," in which a dozen of the band's classic tunes were given a classical twist.
Be it him reworking his own material, or someone else covering Jethro Tull's music, Anderson said he's constantly intrigued by "taking the elements of the music with the melody and the harmony, but presenting them within the stylistic context of a different genre."
"At the end of the day, I think a good song, or even an average song, you can turn it into something else, most times with a degree of success, in terms of crossing genres and presenting something within a new musical suit of clothes," he said.
That said, he does not approve of every such endeavor.
"For instance, I think if I took myself off to Nashville for three weeks, I could probably make an album of Jethro's greatest country hits," Anderson said. "But if I did, you would have to shoot me!"
It remains a toss-up determining which is more distasteful to him — country music or attending concerts other than his own.
An avid theatergoer, Anderson confessed his vast preference for attending a showing of "The Book of Mormon" that night and experiencing its "fairly scurrilous take on the evangelical workings of the world" over being present at one of the final-ever Black Sabbath performances.
While he was happy to get to reconnect with his old friend Iommi again, he can't say the rest of the night was particularly enjoyable, considering his lack of knowledge of the songs the least of his problems.
"The behavior was a bit mindless — a lot of fighting and drinking and throwing up, and generally, it felt unsafe for me being in an audience," he said. "And I was in the good seats!"

Had I not left home in 1975, 17 years old and called to San Francisco, I would be still in Denver, with a paid off home featuring a white picket fence, more than one kid, a 40th wedding anniversary complete with silly jokes about the old lady, and, above all, A close up seat at the concert a couple days ago at Red Rocks. Is it too late to redo my life ?

www.artshound.com/event/jethro-tull-by-ian-anderson/?platform=hootsuite Jethro Tull by Ian AndersonPresented by Smart Financial Center at Sugar Land at Smart Financial Center at Sugar Land Smart Financial Centre presents Jethro Tull by Ian Anderson. Ian Anderson will return to the United States for select performances in Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas, including Smart Financial Centre at Sugar Land. The multi-media performance, JETHRO TULL by Ian Anderson, will be held at the venue on Tuesday, May 30. Accompanied by Tull members David Goodier (bass), John O’Hara (keyboards), Florian Opahle (guitar) and Scott Hammond (drums), the concert will feature a solid collection of the best-known Tull repertoire from 1968 to present, including key songs that put Jethro Tull and Ian Anderson on the map in the late 1960s and early 1970s – most of which will be accompanied by big screen HD video elements to enhance the overall experience. Among the favorites, fans can expect “Dharma For One” in 1968, “Bourée,” “Nothing Is Easy,” “A New Day Yesterday,” “Living In The Past,” “Aqualung,” “Locomotive Breath,” “My God,” “Aqualung” and on through to “Thick As A Brick” and material from the albums of the next three decades. A couple of recent works round out the concert selection which may vary a little from night to night. Known as the flute and voice behind the legendary Jethro Tull, Ian Anderson celebrates his 49th year as an international recording and performing musician. Widely recognized as the man who introduced the flute to rock music, he continues to pair ethnic flutes and whistling with the acoustic guitar and mandolin family of instruments to create acoustic textures that have been an integral part of the Tull repertoire. Over the course of their career, Anderson and Jethro Tull have released 30 studio and live albums and have sold more than 60 million copies since the band’s first performance at London’s famous Marquee Club in February 1968.
