After the album This Was, Jethro Tull would have his first great change of formation integrating the guitarist Martin Barre, who would be a fundamental piece in the entire trajectory of the band in the following years.
If This Was was already a resounding success, it was still an album with strong blues influences directed by Mick Abrahams, undoubtedly who more and better managed the band's paths towards delicious sounds of progressive jazz-blues with folk streaks.
On the Stand Up album, Ian Anderson would totally take over the reins of the group, launching the group's career towards new musical challenges, with a more robust, melodic production and showing influences from classical as well as rock, folk, ethnic, without forgetting jazz roots. and blues.
On the other hand, the integration of Barre endows the band with a harder sound in the group's medieval style, immersing the music of Jethro Tull in one of the standards of world progressive rock.
