The last time I watched the Grammys was 1989, that's the year Best Heavy Metal Recording went to Jethro Tull, this is true. What's even funnier was two years later when Metallica won for The Black Album, they thanked Jethro Tull for not releasing a record that year. I've seen Jethro Tull twice, first time was in 1972. For those who don't know, Jethro Tull is a great progressive rock band, not a heavy metal band. Below is Ian Anderson lead vocalist and flutist of JT.
