Customer Reviews of Jethro Tull - Nothing Is Easy: Live at the Isle of Wight 1970

Worth the price
The few good cuts make the DVD worthwhile: Nothing is Easy, My Sunday Feeling, We Used to Know, My God. <
>Alas the movie focuses on annoying crowd complaints in the middle of other songs. To Cry You a Song is left to play behind the end credits. Dharma for one is boring. <
>I enjoyed Ian Anderson's comments throughout, though they should have been reserved for another part of the DVD. <
>Worst part? Inserting Song For Jeffrey from the Rolling Stones' Circus concert (or whatever it was called) right into the middle of the Isle of Wight concert. The song is atrocious - at least in this rendition. Jeffrey, you deserved better. <
>All in all you get your money's worth, and unless you find other live footage of Tull, this is a must. <
>Just play Nothing is Easy or My Sunday Feeling to anyone who thinks of Tull as a little weenie Bungle in the Jungle studio band.

Jethro Tull-'Nothing Is Easy:Live At The Isle Of Wight,1970' (Eagle Vision)
Personally,I liked the audio CD of the same title better(see my review).I've waited a little while to see this DVD of vintage Tull and even though the live footage of the songs are great,the overall editing job of this music DVD should have been done differently.Whoever put this retrospect together should have put the seven songs FIRST,then put the interviews with Ian Anderson,which provided some super nice 'words of thought' and perhaps facts about Tull that many of you didn't already know.Also dug the footage of the angered fans that were speaking their mind about the famed Isle Of Wight event.Had a fantastic time checking out the perfectly focused(sometimes that doesn't happen with old concert films as such)and never off centered performances of "My Sunday Feeling","Bouree","Dharma For One" and "Nothing Is Easy".If you're an old school Jethro Tull fan,with some time AND patience,do check this DVD out when you can.

Annoying Editing Ruins Brilliant Jethro Tull Performances
Poor Ian Anderson! It's not clear to me if Lerner edited this film or merely shot the original footage, but whoever did the edit apparently does not care much for Jethro Tull music. <

>It's so frustrating to watch incredible concert footage interrupted every 30 seconds by some angry young man enjoying his 15 minutes of fame. <
> <
>I find this DVD virtually unwatchable and heartbreaking. It's not about the band or the music, this is a DVD about the end of the 60's except it was not done very well even from that perspective. <
> <
>If you love the band, brace yourself for disappointment.
