This Was This Was (1968) is the first album by the rock band Jethro Tull. Recorded at a cost of only £1200 GBP, the album was definitely the work of amateurs on the rock music scene; however, the album received generally favorable reviews and sold well upon its release. In the documentary film of the Woodstock Festival, portions of the song "Beggar's Farm" may be heard on the PA system, indicating that the album had achieved some notice in the United States.
Unlike their later albums, vocalist Ian Anderson shared songwriting chores with guitarist Mick Abrahams. The album overall has more of a rhythm and blues feel than the progressive rock feel the band is better known for.
This album also contains the only Jethro Tull song with lyrics which Ian Anderson does not sing on, "Move On Alone." Mick Abrahams sings vocals on this song.
Abrahams left the group following this album.
The album includes a cover version of the jazz tune "Serenade to a Cuckoo" by Roland Kirk, whose flute technique was an influence on Anderson.
"Dharma for One" was later covered by Ekseption.
"Cat's Squirrel" was later used by Mark Abrahams in Blodwyn Pig, Abrahams band Post-Tull.
