The date was the 9th of October 1978. Jethro Tull was live at the Madison Square Gardens in New York USA, and the show was on BBC TV and in tandem with Radio One. I was nursing in a hospital near Hereford and living in the nurses home. A young female student nurse friend (purely platonic by the way, though I had gone out with her sister a few times) was with me in my room to watch the Bursting Out live concert. It was great to hear Jethro Tull in stereo while watching them live, and I recorded the concert on a cassette tape. Just across the border in Powys Wales, in the small village of Llangattock by the River Usk near the town of Crickhowell a young lady was celebrating her 18th birthday. This was the girl I met in March 1979 and who became my wife in the October of that year. Now whenever I listen to that tape I recorded of the concert, it brings back fond memories for me is the connection between my wife's birthday and Jethro Tull. My wife Jenant shares her birthday with John Lennon, another of my music legend heroes.
