Your_Lion Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I don't have them, but my brother has them all, so I've heard them.Well, not the 5.1 mixes, because I don't have enough speakers for that. But the stereo remixes sound great.Plus, you get a huge novel to read with with each one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which aspects of the sound he chose to bring to the forefront and highlight, and why. A good read. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyfriar Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I have 6 of them (Stand Up, Aqualung, Passion Play, War Child, Minstrel and Too Old...) in a weird form. My friend who died last year (R.I.P. mate) had them on his PC, but he only had the CD's ripped to flac files, including scans of all the booklets. He gave them to me and so I have all the CD (stereo) stuff that's there. :hail: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got a prodigious prog appetite! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which others are must haves?Minstrel in the Gallery includes a bonus Paris 75 live disc, which is fantastic.A Passion Play also includes a remix of the Chateau d’Herouville sessions, minus all the extra overdubs that went onto it for Nightcap, which is well worth hearing. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue J Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Put down the coffee? NEVER!! How dare you ask me to commit such a nefarious act. Yes! I allow myself both coffee and Jethro Tull! I have the super deluxe versions of Benefit, A Passion Play, and Minstrel in the Gallery. I really should get the others (hmm, perhaps I'll just ask other people to buy them for me! ;) ). They really are superb- and the essays and liner notes, all of the extras that go along with them- I think they are certainly worth the twenty extra dollars or whatever it is. Just get one, duck, and then decide on the rest. (I think after just one of them, you'll be convinced to spend the extra bread on at least a couple more). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
