Jethro Tull's AQUALUNG box set details!

[Rufus]

Jethro Tull's 1971 album is to launch in a 2CD, 2DVD collection in April


Jethro Tull's fourth album Aqualung is to be released in a 2CD, 2DVD package on April 22.


This was the first Jethro Tull album remixed by Steven Wilson. It's described as a more accessible version of the 40th anniversary edition, which came on LP and Blu-ray formats.

A post on Jethro Tull's Facebook page says it features three additional songs available as 5.1 surround mixes – with tracks Life Is A Long Song and Up The Pool made available on CD form for the first time. It also includes a 40-page book.

Mainman Ian Anderson previously said of Aqualung: "It’s a very important Jethro Tull album and arguably the most successful selling single album by Jethro Tull. I think of it as being a singer/songwriter album with attitude."

The Aqualung box set can be pre-ordered via Amazon.

Here's my take on this latest iteration of the album, and whether it's worth shelling out for:

"with tracks Life Is A Long Song and Up The Pool made available on CD form for the first time."

Living In the Past was released on CD. Many times.

Aqualung doesn't sound very good in any of its iterations, but the 1997 DCC gold CD was probably the best. Much better than Steve Wilson's remixes, anyway.

You might want to add an 'imo' since some many of us have both and disagree.

The SW remix is by far the best sounding version of this album.

Nope.

I know best.
