In Search Of: Jethro Tull's Stand Up 40th Anniversary Box

[PolkSDA]

Link please?

I am seeing them on US eBay from one vendor in the UK, if you change the settings from "Default" to "Worldwide".

Only one vendor though. After sales tax, looks like about US$100 per. Definitely cheaper than the previous pressings, but not exactly bargain priced either. It will be interesting to see if other retailers pick them up.

Deleting my response, as @PolkSDA figured out how to share the link

I reached out to Burning Shed and they suggested I stay tuned to their emails. I've also seen a couple of those eBay UK listings for War Child Theatre Edition for less than $100 with an August ship date... Maybe patience pays off this time?

Indeed to patience

That said - there has been an uptick in the number off Stand Up offerings on both eBay and Discogs in the last day or so. I guess sellers are trying to dump their stock at the best price, for the folks that may not realize these are being re-pressed...

I found rarewaves via e-bay to be the cheapest for the last re-presses, Burning Shed did offer a bundle later too, will wait as I live close by to Burning Shed so postage is practically free from BS for me

HMV in the UK have the four up now too. £50/60, so deffo priced higher than the last batch. Might hold out until pre orders hit the £40/45 mark.

And only when I am standing on one leg, patting my head with one hand and holding up the phone to the sky

How about if you stand on one leg and play the flute?

Or just stand on your flute and pee down your leg. I dunno.

It seems they go in and out of production. I spent a few hundred on damaged copies of Minstrel in the Gallery and Aqualung and now I could pick them up new and sealed for about £35 a piece.

Also, once they get through releasing the catalogue on DVD-A, it wouldn't surprise me if they started rolling out Atmos versions, although that might be a little ways out.

The Tull series reissues are not DVDA. They are lossy DTS.

Hang on, wait, what? Are you sure?

They are DVDs. Only Aqualung initially came out lossless on Blu-ray. But the book version is a DVD. Rokflote came on Blue ray. Regardless they all sound great..

Is the Blu-ray worth having? I've got the DVD version. Is the Blu-ray noticeably better?

It was prone to rotting issues and had other anomalies discussed in other threads. The DVD is the way to go, which also includes a few extra tracks in 5.1 that weren’t on the Blu-ray.

Wow, so is this simply a repressing obviously? I'm really surprised they're doing this. Wonder if any other vendors (US) will do this too?

I've been waiting for BS pre-order links. Many thanks!

Damn. And I was so happy because I found a brand new copy of A Passion Play a few weeks ago for just a bit more than 100 € (which was by far the cheapest I could find after months of searching for it)

Since I'm not a collector nor a completist, I only buy the albums I really like, and that will be Heavy Horses. It will be my 6th Tull album in these CD/DVD editions.
