Brilliant!

| Ian Anderson has always been original, a very creative musician. Beginning with Jethro Tull his music, both with its lyrics and with his style have been innovative and culturally rebellious. Well, 60s, and 70s are gone. The youth of those days protested and rebelled against the culture of its day, but now they have become older and are living in their culture, you might call it "rock'n roll" culture or whatever. Now, in this DVD I see Ian Anderson rebelling against today's kind of rusty, mildew smelling rock culture. He took Jethro Tull songs and showed us in fact how classy they are by having a strings orchestra and by modifying the songs and in one sense making fun with his own music. Marvelous. I loved every one of the songs but especially those after he played Bourree. And if you know anything about Faure's Pavane, a classical piece, you can see how genius this man is, because he has modified and turned a somewhat sad tune into a celebration song. Stairway to Heaven seemed to us a mere rock piece, but if you have heard its version played by a classical orchestra without Led Zeppelin, you probably noticed that it sounded just right, felt home. Can you imagine Led Zeppelin writing a classical piece, not classic rock, but a classic music? They showed that they did with that orchestral arrangement. I felt just that with this DVD. But not only that, because Ian Anderson and a rock band played with him in addition to the strings orchestra, the good-old rock'n roll feeling was not lost. If you appreciate the wit and wisdom of Jethro Tull, you will like this DVD. And if you like this DVD try also Ritchie Blackmore's "Blackmore's Night -- Castles & Dreams" DVD. Thank you Ian Anderson. Your work has class! |
