In 1970, Jethro Tull played on the Isle Of Wight Festival in front of 600,000 people, the largest audience in the history of pop music. The most impressive performances at the Isle Of Wight Festival "Nothing Is Easy" is directed by award winning filmaker Murray Lerner, who also directed and partly shot the original footage of the festival. It contains fiilm of the band's outstanding live performance combined with a brand new interview with Ian Anderson, describing the dramatic, almost violent, festival moods, both backstage and in the audience. As he said "it was a watershed time" between peace and love on one hand, and hooliganism on the other. This is supplemented by early career archive footage including Jethro Tull's performance of "A Song For Jeffrey" on the "Rolling Stones' Rock And Roll Circus", which features Tonny Iommi (Black Sabbath) during his very short stint as the band's guitarist.
The full-frame (1.33:1) image is in excellent shape, and the sound is good and loud; support materials on the DVD include an array of still photos.
