Description

Jethro Tull Concert Handbill Group (1969) As most of you well know, Jethro Tull is not a living person, but the name of one of England's most popular Rock bands. Headed by flute-playing singer Ian Anderson, the band burst onto the scene in 1969. Here are two rare handbills from that year, showcasing the young band. We mention "young" because they were, despite the "old age" make-up job they employed on the cover of their first album, "This Was". Those images were used to create the faces on the first flyer (in NM-), for a show at the Catacombs on August 16. Those who didn't know probably expected to see four elderly men with long hair hit the stage! The second handbill (in VG) was for a December 11 show in Houston, Texas, and also featured Joe Cocker and Fleetwood Mac.
