The All Jethro Tull Thread

[Petr Kropotkin]

This will be the only Tull box set I'm going to pass on as I can't stand anything about Christmas.

(well, OK, I'll gladly tuck into a traditional British Christmas fruit cake.)

,,, And they called me "Ebenezer"

Well, I don't go around saying "Bah! Humbug!", I just try and ignore the whole thing (although it does seem more "seasonal" now I'm in Canada, compared to it being summer in Oz - sweltering hot, but the Christmas cards/decorations had snow everywhere, just silly).

I'm still waiting for a Jethro Tull Hannukah Holiday Box Set!@@@

I love that Tull Xmas album, and being in Oz doesn't prevent me from playing it each year, along with tucking into the roast, xmas pies, pudding and custard, stout... 🎅 🎅 🎅

Spin me back down the years
Interview: Jethro Tull

 

[JohnN]

"Can you stop saying nice things about me?" Robert Fripp wasn't pleased when Jakko Jakszyk ruined his reputation as a tough boss
Jakko has also worked with Jethro Tull’s Ian Anderson, who shares a similarly authoritarian reputation. Anderson gave an example of this himself when he recently revealed to Guitar Player that he could only rely on himself to fix "Locomotive Breath" when recording Tull's classic Aqualung record. But here again, Jakko says, his experience differs from the perception.

With the Christmas album this leaves six more for surround consideration. PLEASE!

Yet still no Living in the Past? That would have been my preference before the rest

 

[srbjab]

It's been an amazing run of catalog reissues, so far, so why stop now? At least 2 more in release order would make me really happy, but I'd buy 'em all if they do 'em.

Funny, since the CD era I have filed Living in the Past with my MFSL CDs.
Cheers to surround...

You have it in the bonus tracks save for the 4 songs with missing multitrack. Carnegie Hall (previous Benefit CD/DVD edition bonus) isn't a Wilson mix though.

Exactly, but that would normally be sufficient for Mr Anderson to put it out anyway (IMO)?

Nice? But when are we getting Aqualung in Atmos?

Oh you betcha, it's a must have.
Atmos mixing by Bruce Soord, who is more than capable and imo on a similar ability level to Steve Wilson

I’m sure the Atmos will be fine but I assume we can kiss goodbye to Tull with a good dynamic range in stereo, as this is not something Soord is known for.

The same thing happened when Steve Wilson stepped away from the Marillion box sets, the stereo sound got crushed.
