Ian Anderson 1975, hand-drawn portrait of Ian performing in September, 1975, age 28.

Ian Scott Anderson is a British musician best known for his work as the singer, flautist, acoustic guitarist, primary songwriter, and sole continuous member of the progressive rock band Jethro Tull.

He is a multi-instrumentalist who also plays harmonica, keyboards, bass guitar, bouzouki, balalaika, saxophone and a variety of whistles.

Early in his musical career he abandoned his ambition to play electric guitar, allegedly because he felt he would never be “as good as Eric Clapton”.
He traded his electric guitar in for a flute which, after some weeks of practice, he found he could play fairly well in a rock and blues style.

His tendency to stand on one leg while playing the flute came about by accident, as he had been inclined to stand on one leg while playing the harmonica, holding the microphone stand for balance. Anderson became known for his famous one-legged flute stance, and was once referred to as a “deranged flamingo”.

Their band name Jethro Tull was named after an 18th century agriculturist who invented the seed drill.

Despite their longevity, commercial success and influence within progressive rock, Jethro Tull have never been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
