Man I’m with you 100%. My way of experiencing these box sets is different each time, but I always love the books. And you hit it right on the head with the “definitive”thick as a brick. I also showed that clip to so many people as a starter. But what I learned from you in this great review was to really give the surround sound a go … And soon ! I went through the CDs just to see and hear the bonus tracks and I enjoyed the extra banter as well. My first Tull show was the 25th anniversary and roots to branches was right after that! I don’t understand why Ian’s son could not throw down some quick drum tracks for an ‘alternate’ under wraps. In the past, it seems like he’s hinting at it, but that it would be so costly to have studio time for something like that and I just don’t get it. Anyway, thanks for boosting my enjoyment of this set. it was already high!

'Deadwing' is my fav PT album, although 'Fear of a Blank Planet' and 'Stupid Dream" are close seconds. Yes, "Arriving Somewhere But Not Here" is their "Stairway to Heaven" moment.

Not bothered at all about this, the tour show is in the Heavy Horses box. Tull don't change the performance at all so the tracks will sound exactly the same. The video would be nice but let's be honest, you'll play it once in every five years or even longer. So, it's the first one I've not got and won't bother getting. I've even got the original Aqualung box with the vinyl. Won't get Under Wraps either, might get Crest of a Knave, not sure yet. Most Tull albums after Broardsword aren't worth bothering with. The best Tull finished after Stormwatch. If it was around £30 mark I might have got it, for the memory/nostalgia but no way at the current price. I have the music, have the tour, so just not worth the money.

I'm already amazed all these book boxsets ever saw the light of day, knowing how reluctant Ian has been in the past to add 'disregarded' original material to any release. It's like he was ashamed of what he found to be 'mistakes' during recording sessions. We all know Ian Anderson is a bit of a perfectionist and he always wanted what he considered the best songs or the best versions of songs appearing on an album. But Ian is, besides a perfectionist, also a genius and a lot of the material he considered unworthy was in fact often on par with what had been originally released. I'm glad he changed his mind in the end, although I'm now wondering what other gems Ian held back on that might expose his 'flaws'. Cheerio amigo.

Thank you for this really helpful review ... just got my copy today and going through the mechanics of ripping to .flac ... I'm pretty anal doing that - making sure I get both Parts 1 and 2 aggregated as a single "album" with tracks numbered sequentially ... and also doing a "rip as one" (using DBpoweramp) to get Part 1 and Part 2 each as 2 x single, seanless, complete tracks ... and aggregating the soundcheck tracks as a single "soundchecks" album in its own right with tracks renumbered appropriately. A "definitive" track listing of the MSG DVD 3 would be helpful ... I believe Locomitive Breath was played mid set (for broadcast) as well as in its usual place... still to watch it. These sets are fabulous and, like you, I would like to see Under Wraps given the full treatment ... including a remix with "proper" drums as well as flat transfer. Ian has suggested that it would not be cost effective ... but if he opened a crowd funding to pre-pay for getting it done then I'd be in .... thanks again for video ... enjoyed it ... CMcG, Aberdeen, Scotland .. p s. the Tull gig in Aberdeen a couple of months back was excellent... great set, high energy, great playing and sound .... maybe a live document of the tour will appear sometime - if so, it would be worth getting.

Thanks for the detailed review. Matches my experience, with the added expertise of a sound expert which I am not. There are just two things I was slightly disappointed with about this release. First, I wish it were on Bluray rather than DVDs so we would get the entire album on one disc, as opposed to having to change discs in the middle. Second, because there are no notes by Wilson or an actual "Tales of the Tapes" type text, it's a little unclear why we don't have details of which German gigs the no-Bern tracks come from. Were all the reels unlabelled to the extent that not one of these tracks can be ascertained to be from this or that performance ? Are there no bootleg recordings to compare them with ? I hope maybe diehard fans will help determine at least some of the sources, because I was really expecting to know every last detail about where and when this album was recorded.
@ShedSoundsMediawithIanBeabout8 күн бұрын
I think most people these days still have DVD players, though I agree that a blu ray would be nice. Thinking of the XTC and Crimson style ‘boxed set on a disc’ approach - which could work really well for Tull, not to mention Atmos seems to be the future and it’s odd that the Tull sets are not yet adopting it. I also really wanted some notes from Wilson, I think that would’ve helped my review immensely. According to the box liner notes, nobody has any idea where or when the German dates were recorded because the multitracks were cut together ‘Zappa style’ with razor blade and tape, and no one kept track of the sources. Thanks for viewing and commenting ! I agree with much of these (minor) criticisms and thinking back on it I wish I’d brought up the point about Wilson providing liner notes. That’s something I’ve always enjoyed in past sets.
@aymericleroy85008 күн бұрын
@@ShedSoundsMediawithIanBeabout What I fail to understand is how, as you say, the multis were (un)labelled and treated in such a casual manner, yet all of them were still available and properly sorted for Wilson to remix, albeit with no outtakes made available to us. This would seem to indicate that only those fragments which were used in the final album have been kept. Or that there was no budget/editorial interest in having unused takes included (like, for instance, we have the individual shows used to compile GG's Playing the Fool). As for DVD v/s Bluray, with Bluray players available for such low prices (AND being able to play DVDs and CDs), I just don't get how anyone can still be resistant to the format. It's not like you could play DVDs in your car and not Bluray's - both require a TV, so it's not like you need an entirely different set-up for a Bluray player...

Nice review, been a Trower fan since the summer of 76 when I picked up the new Live album and it blew my mind, right up there with Johnny Winter Captured Live which I purchased earlier that year, didn't see him live until 1986 at a club in Toronto, great show but wish I could have seen him back in mid seventies. Will be picking up this set but waiting for the price to come down, here in Canada everything is ridiculously priced, curious to hear the longer versions of these classics, would be nice to see a future repackaging/expanding of For Earth Below next year, Incidentally regarding the live album there are 5 yes 5 unreleased to this day tracks from that Stockholm concert that are available here on YT if you search and they are pro recordings just like the official lp ( Day Of The Eagle, Bridge Of Sighs, Fine Day, Gonna Be More Suspicious and Confessin Midnight (encore) ) so WTF still no deluxe edition of the complete concert to this day!

Another wonderful review, Ian! Now I need to hear it and possibly buy it!
@@davenewhouse1708 I think you’d really enjoy it
And the mouse police chose to sleep😅 Got my copy this week. Like you it was a no brainer for me.
Pat was not a replacement for Bill Bruford. They played together in Thrak before failed recording and Projeckts, then Bruford retired and Pat was left, they played brilliantly together on Thrak and the two tours that followed. I couldn't listen to the rest of the video after getting that so wrong.
@@stuartraybould2574 my apologies, I was a little unclear and I tried to correct it with an onscreen caption. I did mention around the 3:07 mark that they played together on Thrak.
@@ShedSoundsMediawithIanBeabout 🤦 Mistakes happen I suppose.
@@stuartraybould2574 I actually met and worked with Pat and Trey last September when Tuner played ProgDay. It was a great experience to see him play ‘Level 5’ up close. Wonderful performance !
@@ShedSoundsMediawithIanBeabout seen Crimson several times, all line ups including the Projeckts with the exception of the original 1969 band, just too young. I can imagine that was a wonderful, unforgettable, experience, I'm jealous.
@@stuartraybould2574 I saw them in 2017 with the three drummer lineup. Pat was really cool and I got to load on and help set up his drums. Jealous you got to see KC thru the years !
Great review Ian! Just got the album. Will give it a good spin soon. As for these posthumous releases I find them really interesting. We get to hear how it actually happened. I love that. Frank was the master of editing and he could really locate the juicy bits. That’s true. But since he’s gone it’s the best thing to give us the warts and all shit 😁 Somewhat I get be “there” .
Yeah and that’s helpful for me too, self editing is never easy but I think Frank made a lot of the right choices.
@@ShedSoundsMediawithIanBeabout To me it is so interesting that some things never got used. Like the FZ mixes here or the long, full versions of Transilvanian Boogie on Funky Nothingness. He had so much music in his head that he just laid it by the wayside and moved on. Always evolving.
Not bothered at all about this, the tour show is in the Heavy Horses box. Tull don't change the performance at all so the tracks will sound exactly the same. The video would be nice but let's be honest, you'll play it once in every five years or even longer. So, it's the first one I've not got and won't bother getting. I've even got the original Aqualung box with the vinyl. Won't get Under Wraps either, might get Crest of a Knave, not sure yet. Most Tull albums after Broardsword aren't worth bothering with. The best Tull finished after Stormwatch. If it was around £30 mark I might have got it, for the memory/nostalgia but no way at the current price. I have the music, have the tour, so just not worth the money.
@@stuartraybould2574 it’s totally your call to make an informed choice based on your needs and situation. But for me ? I was never happy with the Jakko mix on Berne. Two keyboard players and both are buried to the point of inaudibility on the 5.1 mix. This is put together so much better imo and I think the performances Ian chose are better than their Berne counterparts. Also, the MSG video sweetens the deal considerably in my eyes.
Thanks for your detailed review! I haven't listened to a note of this yet but now I'm interested in giving this set a listen.
Thank you, Ian. I’m just now seeing this. Spot On summary of what went into this release.
Great, enjoyed that. Totally unfamiliar w/ “Bursting Out”. Now I’m going to go back and listen.
I played the shit out of BO when I was younger. Haven't heard a better live album, original mix notwithstanding. Looking forward to hearing this new version.
@@rightchordleadership Seconds Out by Genesis and Roxy and Elsewhere by Frank Zappa are pretty close in my estimation. Thanks for dropping by !
Univers Zero Live is stellar.
@@Phlakaton88Thin Lizzy’s Live And Dangerous was pretty good too
I'm already amazed all these book boxsets ever saw the light of day, knowing how reluctant Ian has been in the past to add 'disregarded' original material to any release. It's like he was ashamed of what he found to be 'mistakes' during recording sessions. We all know Ian Anderson is a bit of a perfectionist and he always wanted what he considered the best songs or the best versions of songs appearing on an album. But Ian is, besides a perfectionist, also a genius and a lot of the material he considered unworthy was in fact often on par with what had been originally released. I'm glad he changed his mind in the end, although I'm now wondering what other gems Ian held back on that might expose his 'flaws'. Cheerio amigo.
@@JimmyRJumpthe divide between artist and fan is this, fans WANT to hear the mistakes and value them. I love the studio Quatrain where Ian screws up the mandolin part and says “oh fuck sorry !” I like knowing our heroes are human and can make mistakes too.
A friend to Jethro Tull is a friend of mine. Subscribed and looking forward to checking some, or all, of your other video. Greetings from Belgium. Cheerio.
It’s a little different than my first copy which I bought on cassette when released!
Cat chilling with Tull 🙂
I just discovered your channel.I really enjoy videos like this.I would love to see you review Look At Yourself by Uriah Heep or (and) Deep Purple's Who Do We Think We Are
@@thomaswery3087 I don’t have those albums, but I’ve heard Look at Yourself so I’ll think about it ! I want my channel to be physical media driven so I have to own stuff to talk about it …
The Tull boxes are a triumph in every regard. And don't forget the price point of these boxes compared to say Pink Floyd with the marbles and scarfes. Very reasonable.
@@jimhardiman3836 yeah ! compare the price / content of this compared to the new Bowie “Rock n Roll Star” set that’s going for twice the retail price. It’s incredible value for money.
Thanks, Ian. This is the first of your KZread album reviews that I’ve seen, and I’m enjoying it a lot. Glad you’re doing this.
thanks Dave ! Hope it helps to get the word out about my business / projects while also providing commentary on music I love :-)
Great review I'm a huge Tull fan.First time I saw them was in '73
If I had a Time Machine that’s the tour I’d see !
@@ShedSoundsMediawithIanBeabout I've been fortunate to see Tull 25 times over the years.Obviously I love Tull
@@thomaswery3087 I saw the Roots to Branches tour on my dad’s shoulders … I was but a youngin’. To date my only real Tull show but I’ve seen Ian and Martin separately since then
@@ShedSoundsMediawithIanBeabout I'm 74 as they say I'm old but I saw all the great bands lol
Very good review - thanks
Thank you for this really helpful review ... just got my copy today and going through the mechanics of ripping to .flac ... I'm pretty anal doing that - making sure I get both Parts 1 and 2 aggregated as a single "album" with tracks numbered sequentially ... and also doing a "rip as one" (using DBpoweramp) to get Part 1 and Part 2 each as 2 x single, seanless, complete tracks ... and aggregating the soundcheck tracks as a single "soundchecks" album in its own right with tracks renumbered appropriately. A "definitive" track listing of the MSG DVD 3 would be helpful ... I believe Locomitive Breath was played mid set (for broadcast) as well as in its usual place... still to watch it. These sets are fabulous and, like you, I would like to see Under Wraps given the full treatment ... including a remix with "proper" drums as well as flat transfer. Ian has suggested that it would not be cost effective ... but if he opened a crowd funding to pre-pay for getting it done then I'd be in .... thanks again for video ... enjoyed it ... CMcG, Aberdeen, Scotland .. p s. the Tull gig in Aberdeen a couple of months back was excellent... great set, high energy, great playing and sound .... maybe a live document of the tour will appear sometime - if so, it would be worth getting.
Discogs may be helpful www.discogs.com/release/31027975-Jethro-Tull-Live-Bursting-Out-The-Inflated-Edition Thanks for watching / commenting !
There is a mention somewhere in the booklet of LB having been played twice during the performance, and that they decided to only include the best of the two.
Just played DVD ... and, as I eventually found in the book, there are 2 versions of Locomotive Breath on DVD ... sound quality of MSG gig is great ... when you play the DVD you get audio with photos on screen until the final few seconds of Heavy Horses ... that's where TV video starts ... then band go offstage for minute or so before they return and you get the start (proper) of the televised gig with a great "snappy" version of Thick as a Brick .... video continues through to Locomotive Breath #1 ... then video reverts to photos on screen thereafter through to end of disc concluding with version #2 of Locomotive Breath ... cheers
@@aymericleroy8500 the second version is on the dvd but not on the cd
I believe the process of layering a musical performance over another musical recording is known as “xenochrony”. Frank Zappa used it extensively on Sheik Yerbouti and Joe’s Garage. This was great, Ian! I’ll be catching up on most (if not all) of these reviews! Thanks!
@@twostikks1 have you ever read a word, know exactly what it means - but have no idea how to pronounce it ?? That’s my relationship with the word ‘xenochrony’ 😛
@@ShedSoundsMediawithIanBeabout LOL … I’m actually, usually pretty good at figuring out how to pronounce something, but I DO know what you mean! 😝
Thanks for the detailed review. Matches my experience, with the added expertise of a sound expert which I am not. There are just two things I was slightly disappointed with about this release. First, I wish it were on Bluray rather than DVDs so we would get the entire album on one disc, as opposed to having to change discs in the middle. Second, because there are no notes by Wilson or an actual "Tales of the Tapes" type text, it's a little unclear why we don't have details of which German gigs the no-Bern tracks come from. Were all the reels unlabelled to the extent that not one of these tracks can be ascertained to be from this or that performance ? Are there no bootleg recordings to compare them with ? I hope maybe diehard fans will help determine at least some of the sources, because I was really expecting to know every last detail about where and when this album was recorded.
I think most people these days still have DVD players, though I agree that a blu ray would be nice. Thinking of the XTC and Crimson style ‘boxed set on a disc’ approach - which could work really well for Tull, not to mention Atmos seems to be the future and it’s odd that the Tull sets are not yet adopting it. I also really wanted some notes from Wilson, I think that would’ve helped my review immensely. According to the box liner notes, nobody has any idea where or when the German dates were recorded because the multitracks were cut together ‘Zappa style’ with razor blade and tape, and no one kept track of the sources. Thanks for viewing and commenting ! I agree with much of these (minor) criticisms and thinking back on it I wish I’d brought up the point about Wilson providing liner notes. That’s something I’ve always enjoyed in past sets.
@@ShedSoundsMediawithIanBeabout What I fail to understand is how, as you say, the multis were (un)labelled and treated in such a casual manner, yet all of them were still available and properly sorted for Wilson to remix, albeit with no outtakes made available to us. This would seem to indicate that only those fragments which were used in the final album have been kept. Or that there was no budget/editorial interest in having unused takes included (like, for instance, we have the individual shows used to compile GG's Playing the Fool). As for DVD v/s Bluray, with Bluray players available for such low prices (AND being able to play DVDs and CDs), I just don't get how anyone can still be resistant to the format. It's not like you could play DVDs in your car and not Bluray's - both require a TV, so it's not like you need an entirely different set-up for a Bluray player...
This is my 2nd Favorite KC album used to be at the bottom until one day i played it starting on track 2 & realize its a perfect album without Prozac Blues... So now i skip PB every time i play it (this song rubs me so badly it hurt my ability to properly immerse in this album) ... Feel The Reconstrukction Mix is far superior... Also... prefer Frackctured over the original Fracture by leaps & bounds... KC as always is innovating, developing & evolving... especially on the last 3 albums My Ranking 1. The Power to Believe/ Discipline 2. The Reconstruction of Light (skip - Prozac Blues) *Bonus Heavy Construkction (skip - Prozac Blues) 3. Thrak/THRaKaTTaK 4. Three of A Perfect Pair 5. Islands *Favorites - Ladies of the Road/Prelude: Song of the Gulls 6. Starless & Bible Black *40th Anniversary Version (skip - 6 & 7) play tracks 1-5, 8 - 13 (title track is the only piece i dislike) *Favorite - Lament 7. Larks Tongue in Aspic 8. In the Court of the Crimson King 9. (3 album/Tie)... cant decide In the Wake of Poseidon *Favorites - Cat Food/Pictures of A City Red (skip - Fallen Angel & Starless/play Bonus Track - Improv: A Voyage to the Centre of the Cosmos... instead) *Favorite track - One More Red Nightmare Beat *Favorite tracks - Heartbeat, Neal & Jack & Me, Neurotica, The Howler 10. Lizard (use to rank higher mainly because the Lizard Suite)...
@@kingIgor Hmm … maybe I’ll have to rank the KC albums sometime ?
Nice review, been a Trower fan since the summer of 76 when I picked up the new Live album and it blew my mind, right up there with Johnny Winter Captured Live which I purchased earlier that year, didn't see him live until 1986 at a club in Toronto, great show but wish I could have seen him back in mid seventies. Will be picking up this set but waiting for the price to come down, here in Canada everything is ridiculously priced, curious to hear the longer versions of these classics, would be nice to see a future repackaging/expanding of For Earth Below next year, Incidentally regarding the live album there are 5 yes 5 unreleased to this day tracks from that Stockholm concert that are available here on YT if you search and they are pro recordings just like the official lp ( Day Of The Eagle, Bridge Of Sighs, Fine Day, Gonna Be More Suspicious and Confessin Midnight (encore) ) so WTF still no deluxe edition of the complete concert to this day! Cheers.
Nice shout out to Mark Craney. I was 13 years old in 1980, just started playing the drums and already somewhat familiar with progressive rock because of my older brothers. I saw Aqualung from Slipstream on MTV and was totally knocked out especially by Craney's drumming. Fast forward to 1991 and I had the good fortune to take lessons from Mark. We jammed along with the Pine Martens Jig along with other Tull, JLP and Gino tracks. I still use some of the rhythmic concepts he tought me.
I need to check it out. I recently played the Construction of Light album and I was blown away at how much I hated that sound NOW. So this might be the trick for me.
Definitely recommended
