Please post details of any new Tull or Tull related DVDs or CDs here.To begin with, I've found this DVD at aqualung-mygod.blogspot.com but I don't know if it is a legit release or a bootleg. From memory this BBC programme was a rather good overview of prog rock imo. Documentary about progressive music and the generation of bands that were involved, from the international success stories of Yes, Genesis, ELP, King Crimson and Jethro Tull to the trials and tribulations of lesser-known bands such as Caravan and Egg. The film is structured in three parts, charting the birth, rise and decline of a movement famed for complex musical structures, weird time signatures, technical virtuosity and strange, and quintessentially English, literary influences. It looks at the psychedelic pop scene that gave birth to progressive rock in the late 1960s, the golden age of progressive music in the early 1970s, complete with drum solos and gatefold record sleeves, and the over-ambition, commercialisation and eventual fall from grace of this rarefied musical experiment at the hands of punk in 1977.
Contributors include Robert Wyatt, Mike Oldfield, Pete Sinfield, Rick Wakeman, Phil Collins, Arthur Brown, Carl Palmer and Ian Anderson.

Definitely looks like a Bootleg. Any modern day BBC release would have a bit of a more flashy cover I believe. Definitely sounds like a great DVD.

Since this is about 'new releases'...... I read that the TAAB vinyl will be released as a package alongside/with TAAB2.... ?? WTF!!!! Why do I feel that IA is cramming down my throat (t)his idea that TAAB2 deserves to sit next to a JT classic - TAAB. I could care less for TAAB2 on vinyl and REALLY do care that I have to purchase it with TAAB. I say treat TAAB as it's own CLASSIC and don't include the after-thought as in, TAAB2 after-thought. This is, after all, the 40th ANNIVERSARY OF TAAB, a JETHRO TULL ALBUM!!!!! IA is having a Homer Simpson moment......doh!!!!

I wouldn't have thought that it would be that big a seller for EMI to go ahead and produce such a release on its own. But if it came with some kind of illustrated book, such as the recent Aqualung release, and was released as a package concentrating on TAAB1 then it might shift some units. Btw I've never been able to find out exactly how the aforementioned Aqualung issue did with regard to sales. Anyone got any insider knowlege?

TAAB2 should have been given an another name but maybe the choice was with someone else other than Ian? Who knows?

I agree, or rather/perhaps, EMI seems to be mentioned more than usual compared to past releases (but maybe not?) either way, I just have 'feeling' that there was a bit of 'push'. Too, I've stated my disdain the seeming truth about the TAAB vinyl remaster/release being 'bundled' with TAAB2 - that to me seems purely like a PR or Marketing Department idea - and a bad one to me.

I consider TAAB2 to be alarmingly unworthy and certainly won't buy a remixed TAAB1 if it must include TAAB2, whether it's CD, DVD or vinyl. Let a bad idea die and let TAAB1 be marketed alone.

futureshock........."I consider TAAB2 to be alarmingly unworthy and certainly won't buy a remixed TAAB1 if it must include TAAB2, whether it's CD, DVD or vinyl. Let a bad idea die and let TAAB1 be marketed alone."
I'm a bit surprised there hasn't been more comment on this yet - It really, really, chaps my arse' that a classic, truly one of the finest albums recorded - is being 'packaged' with the wannabe TAAB2. Maybe IA or EMI or whoever insisted on that should rethink that - because honestly, I'm not more inclined to purchase the TAAB vinyl because of TAAB2's inclusion. In fact, it's inclusion would keep me from the purchase.
If that's how I'll have to show my displeasure with the idea, then so be it. This is just flat out bull-crap.

They own the rights to put it out, along with any other IA/Jethro Tull album that they care to think of and that's why we've had many re-releases over the last couple of years. When it boils down to it, I think the reason IA gets involved is to make sure the finished product is up to his high standards and not given the nod by some flunky in a back room at EMI HQ.

Well if you're correct (and I certainly believe you) it's still bull-crap. I had a feeling that there was 'more in the stew' of the type you mention. Who is it then that owns the copy-rights to the music??? Who owns the back-catalog and I wonder if there is a contractual obligation to tour and play JT material?

Who is it then that owns the copy-rights to the music??? Who owns the back-catalog and I wonder if there is a contractual obligation to tour and play JT material? In all honesty I don't know the exact answer and it would need a lawyer well versed in the music industry to answer such a question. The copyright on the TAAB2 music, for example, is owned by the IA Group of Companies "under exclusive licence to Chrysalis Records Ltd" (now part of the EMI conglomerate). In layman's jargon I read that as IA owns the music, farms it out to EMI who market and issue the product. So whereas IA keeps control of the ownership of the music as the composer, EMI put the product on the shop shelves and to amazon, play.com, etc. I'd love to know for certain how it all works.

Yes, I understand that - the IA Group of Companies has been around for a while now. If memory serves, teh copyright basics say the 'author' or 'creator' registering the work owns it for a certain amount of time and that it can be transferred before the time-limit runs through??? Then I remember hearing that once a copyright time-period is over it can be purchased by someone else... It's like you say, there are probably twists and legal turns that are privy only to those involved.
