J-Tull Dot Com (1999) is the 20th studio album by the British band Jethro Tull, and their final studio album consisting of all-original material. It was released four years after their 1995 album Roots to Branches and continues in the same vein, marrying hard-rock and art-rock with Eastern music influences. This is the only album to feature both Andrew Giddings on keyboards and Jonathan Noyce on bass, although both would stay with the band until 2007, resulting in Jethro Tull's longest ever unchanged line-up; they recorded just one other album, The Jethro Tull Christmas Album.
