Ian Anderson: Jethro Tull

Jethro Tull
Long Beach Arena, CA
1976
By L. Paul Mann

One of the first performers I photographed with a professional 35mm camera was Ian Anderson in Jethro Tull. This particular concert was one of my first in California, at the Long Beach Arena, circa 1976. The camera was a 35mm Yashica film camera, with a 200mm F4 Mamiya lens. Exposure, film winding, and focus were all manual at this point. The only fast slide film widely used was Ektachrome 400. I shot Jethro Tull about five or six times in the next three years but this was the first time.
