Jethro Tull recent Remasters vs Mobile Fidelity?

I have seen "This Was, Benefit, and Stand Up" remastered on vinyl, but I'm not sure about the availability anymore. "Aqualung might have been available in that group, but not being a fan of that LP I did not pay any attention. I have most of the originals including the yearly rerelease of a "greatest hits" (with all the same tracks as last years) LP and a few MFSL but given the choice I would rather have a Doug Sax remaster. On vinyl of course! The Acoustic Sounds catalog had some reissues of the early stuff. Happy hunting (girl)

I agree with the "Aqualung" assessment. I have over thirty Tull LPs plus assorted CDs and I consider Aqualung to be among the poorest of their releases.

I can't speak for Ian and the boys, but if you'd been playing the same song for over thirty years now (in many cases) don't you think you'd want to do something different.

Sorry Tweekerman but I'd put "Living in the Past" in the same catagory as Aqualung; not one of their better outings. Everyone has their preferences though.

I bought a used copy of "This Was" in great shape on Ebay last year for only a few bucks. I also got an original release of "Living in the Past" with the book and everything for under twenty dollars. A lot of this stuff can still be found without too much work.

Again, happy hunting!

Phasecorrect why are you here. You obviously know little or nothing about good music. Isn't there an outlet nearby that you can check to see if the phase is correct. If your fingers are too big, try a fork:^) It's a joke!
Just because you don't like something doesn't make it bad. I'm not sure what you are trying to add to improve this thread.
I'm sorry I didn't hear your last album. What was it called again? A consumate musician like you must have some good recordings out there for the lesser of us to buy.
Using a flute with Rock music was one of the best thing to happen in all of the seventies. It was a great break from all of the overblown guitar solos we suffered through.
Just my opinion!

Bouree is almost all flute, how could you like that??? Are you changing your mind about the virtues of this beautiful instrument? There may be room yet!

Janis had the decency to die before she got old, I guess!
