Jethro Tull - A New Day Yesterday: The 25th Anniversary Collection, 1969-1994 на DVD (The 25th Anniversary Collection, 1969-1994)

At this point, Jethro Tull are already over halfway through their fourth decade as an entity, but this 90-minute documentary is a thoroughly entertaining look at frontman Ian Anderson and company's first quarter-century. While only Anderson remains from the original lineup (Tull actually began in '68, DVD title notwithstanding), with guitarist Martin Barre having joined as of their second album, part of the fun comes from watching more than a dozen members past and present coming together at a genteel reunion party to be interviewed and share reminiscences. The DVD is also strong on concert performance and video excerpts, especially those from the band's most successful period (the codpiece-and-minstrelsy '70s stretch that yielded hit records like Aqualung, Thick as a Brick, and Songs from the Wood), in addition to more recent items, including their rehearsals for a 25th anniversary reunion tour. DVD bonus materials feature seven of those performances (including 'Teacher,' 'The Witch's Promise,' and 'Aqualung') in their entirety. --Sam Graham
