Jethro Tull is a Grammy Award winning British rock group formed in 1967-1968. Their music is characterized by the unique vocal style and lead flute work of front man Ian Anderson. Initially playing blues rock with an experimental flavor, the band has incorporated elements of classical, folk, jazz, and art rock over the years.
With their distinctive sound and innovative approach to music, Jethro Tull has captivated audiences worldwide. Led by the talented Ian Anderson, their fusion of genres such as blues rock, classical, folk, jazz, and art rock sets them apart from other bands.
The band's journey began in the late 1960s and they quickly gained recognition for their exceptional musicianship and groundbreaking compositions. Their incorporation of unconventional instruments like the flute added a unique dimension to their sound.

In 1972, Jethro Tull released the instant classic, Thick As A Brick. 50 years on and the album is still revered as one of rock’s and progressive rock’s most definitive and pioneering albums. This rare and coveted 40th anniversary CD/DVD special collector’s edition is repressed after being out of print for nearly ten years.

Thick As A Brick came about following the release of Jethro Tull’s immensely successful previous album “Aqualung”. Upon its release, Aqualung was regarded a concept album in the music press, and in response the band set about to respond to the rock critics with the ultimate concept album, culminating in Thick As A Brick.

Thick As A Brick was the first album to feature drummer Barrie Barlow, who featured alongside Ian Anderson, Martin Barre, John Evan and Jeffrey Hammond.
