'''Jethro Tull''' is a British rock band often classified as progressive rock, although they were heavily influenced by blues and folk music. Their lead singer, [[Ian Anderson]], is well-known for playing the [[flute]] and for his quirky stage-presence. Among their most famous albums are ''[[Aqualung]]'' (1971), ''Thick as a Brick'' (1972), ''Songs from the Wood'' (1977) and the Grammy Award-winning ''Crest of a Knave'' (1987). They named themselves after a British Agriculturist who invented seed drill. They are known for having undergone numerous changes of line-up: at a 2008 gig at the Royal Festival Hall in London, Anderson drew attention to "bass-player number eight", David Goodier.

In Spring 2008, the band embarked on a European tour in celebration of the 40th anniversary of their debut album, ''This Was''.
