•    Original album and bonus tracks (including a previously unreleased Bouree) mixed in 5.1 surround and stereo by Steven Wilson.
•    96/24 flat transfer of the original stereo master tapes, and the original mono and stereo mixes of Living In The Past and Driving Song.
•    Video of the band performing two songs live in January 1969.
•    Presented in the ‘book set’ format of the recent JT reissues.
•    A 112-page booklet with an extensive history of the album, track-by-track annotations by Ian Anderson, and rare and unseen photographs.
•    The original album’s iconic pop-up artwork designed by James Grashow. The first disc features Steven Wilson’s stereo mixes of the original album, four songs recorded at the BBC, single mixes for Living In The Past and Driving Song and more.

The first disc features Steven Wilson’s new stereo mixes of the original album, along with a number of rare recordings, including an unreleased version of “Bouree,” four songs recorded at the BBC, and stereo single mixes for “Living In The Past” and “Driving Song.” The second disc features the band performing live in Sweden in January 1969 – and as openers for Jimi Hendrix, no less! – as well as mono single mixes for “Living In The Past” and “Driving Song,” plus two radio spots promoting the album.

The second disc captures Jethro Tull performing live in Sweden, where the band opened for Jimi Hendrix in January 1969. Recorded only a few weeks after Martin Barre joined the band, the concert includes songs from the band’s debut in addition to two songs destined for Stand Up. Rounding out the disc are mono single mixes of Living In The Past and Driving Song, plus two radio spots promoting the album.

The DVD includes concert footage of the band performing To Be Sad Is A Mad Way To Be and Back To The Family.
