Jethro Tull's second album, 'Stand Up', marked an early turning point for the band with the addition of guitarist Martin Barre along with Ian Anderson's introduction of folk-rock influences to the group's blues-based sound. Released in the summer of 1969, 'Stand Up' rose quickly to the top of the UK Albums Chart, and eventually earned gold certification in the US. 'Stand Up' was the first album where Anderson controlled the music and lyrics, resulting in a group of diverse songs that ranged from the swirling blues of 'A New Day Yesterday' and the mandolin-fueled rave-up of 'Fat Man,' to the group's spirited re-working of Johann Sebastian Bach's 'Bouree in E Minor.'
