4.0 out of 5 starsGreat Concert, Decent Audio, Fair (SD!) Video
By R. D. Clark VINE VOICE on August 27, 2014
Format: Blu-ray
This is standard definition video, upscaled to 1080i for Blu-ray. No deception, it says so right on the box. It looks... OK. As good as upscaled SD video is likely to look. You won't be using this disc to show off your HD projection system.

The audio is... OK. It's full-range, dynamic, uncompressed DTS-MA audio, but the mix is not great. The drums are consistently a bit too hot; the lead guitar usually buried; lead vocals (particularly Anderson's) a bit too up-front. Not well blended, very dry, very little house sound (audience or room ambiance). Sounds a lot like a sound-board mix.

The LPCM 2.0 mix, IMO, fares better, and I think its a different mix, not just a fold-down of the 5.1 version. It's not radically different, just more cohesive.

I loved the show when I saw it last year in Philadelphia, and this is pretty much the same show from earlier in the tour. Anderson's vocal issues are well-known, and I think his solution -- to include a "vocal avatar" in the band to carry part of the load, to act as a visual foil, and add some theatrical dimension to the narrative -- is brilliant.

When you listen to recent Anderson recordings, like TaaB2 or the recent Homo Erraticus, his vocal limitations are less evident. He still sounds like himself, and he writes for the voice he has now. You hear what's there, and it sounds fine. It's only when he tries to recreate performances from long ago that it becomes clear how seriously constrained his singing is. Thus, adding the young actor Ryan O'Donnell to the ensemble provides a very acceptable workaround, with the bonus that Anderson can play flute (with undiminished virtuosity) during vocals that were overdubbed in the original, and omitted or handed off to the keyboards during performances during the 70s.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars1972 I saw Jethro Tull perform Thick as a Brick and it was my favorite concert of all time
By Matthew Bush on September 3, 2014
Format: Blu-ray Verified Purchase
On the evening of June 11, 1972 I saw Jethro Tull perform Thick as a Brick and it was my favorite concert of all time. The band - Martin Barre, Jeffrey Hammond-Hammond, Barriemore Barlow, John Evans and maestro Ian Anderson were then at a creative peak; what separated them the most from their progressive rock contemporaries was that , while superb musicians Tull never took themselves seriously and brought a wonderfully clever sense of humor to the stage. Their performance was like a flying circus weaving hilarious skits (based around the TAAB newspaper) into the musical performance – a blend of acoustic melody and virtuosic hard rock. I have never seen a band rock that hard! I attended a Rolling Stones concert the week before and Led Zeppelin the week after, and while I felt both of those performances were great, they paled in comparison to Tull. Sadly, all that remains from that amazing 1972 TAAB tour are dimming memories, grainy, silent 8mm film clips and audience recorded bootlegs.
Skip ahead 40 years. Ian Anderson creates TAAB 2 and goes on tour to perform both the original and TAAB2 in their entirety. The concert in Reykjavik in July 2012 was filmed and featured in this Blu-ray DVD.
My review is of the 2012 performance of the original TAAB only.
How does it compare to the 1972 concert? First and foremost, as one would expect, it is necessarily far more subdued. In his mid-60s, Ian Anderson the whirling dervish is long gone, no more leaping across the stage or bending backwards nearly to the floor, and his voice has deteriorated to the extent that he really struggles to sing much of the material (wisely, he has brought in Ryan O’Donnell to fill in on the more difficult vocal parts).Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 starsA Pretty Good Record of a Great Tour
By Brian P. Nestor on October 9, 2014
Format: Blu-ray
I saw this tour - not in Iceland - and it was very well done. The presentation was theatrical and there was an additional member of the band to do mime, dancing, and singing. along with much multi-media. They played the complete 'Thick As a Brick', took a short break, and came back for the newly released 'Thick As a Brick 2'. Both the musicianship and presentation were impeccable, and this Blu-ray reflects that with a robust 5.1 audio mix and enough camera angles to make the visuals interesting.

My only complaint is that there were about 45 minutes of additional material as an encore - classic Tull stuff, as you can imagine - that left the audience on its feet. For some reason that was not included, and is the only fault that I can find with the entire package. There are some bonus features, most especially a short interview with Ian Anderson, who in his later years has become more favorable in his views of the early Jethro Tull material, as well as a short piece about Iceland. Good stuff all.

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat concert disk. Get this one!
By N. Knox on October 13, 2014
Format: Blu-ray
I was skeptical at first. This is Ian Anderson with a new band with no former Jethro Tull members. So, how good can it be? Well, I was very pleasantly surprised! In this show, Ian and the band play; Thick as a brick (1 & 2) and do so fantastically! It's entertaining, funny (at the right times) and as expected, the musicianship is flawless. This is a very good buy and I would recommend this to everyone who loves this timeless music.

5.0 out of 5 starsReal Fans Will Love It.
By J, Carter Watts on October 12, 2014
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
Having been a huge fan of Ian Anderson and Jethro Tull for years, the computer age has finally allowed me to see the band in concert. This concert is both Thick As A Brick and Thick As A Brick 2 performed in 2012 in Iceland. The musicianship of the concert is wonderful. After all these years Ian's voice is taking a beating, but Tull fans won't mind too much.
