Out Now: Jethro Tull, STAND UP on LP

On November 18 of last year, Jethro Tull fans rejoiced when Rhino released STAND UP: THE ELEVATED EDITION, a highly expanded reissue of the band’s sophomore album. It was a massive piece of work – you can read all about it right here – and that was certainly a very good thing for those who purchased it, but for those who only wanted the new Steven Wilson remixes of the original album tracks, it was a little frustrating, because they weren’t available independently of the set.

Now, however, they are. Even better, they’ve been pressed onto 180-gram vinyl, so the sound quality is better than you’re likely ever to have heard before.

Can’t recall which tracks are on STAND UP? Here’s a reminder.

Side 1:

1. “A New Day Yesterday”
2. “Jeffery Goes To Leicester Square”
3. “Bouree”
4. “Back To The Family”
5. “Look Into The Sun”

Side 2:
1. “Nothing Is Easy”
2. “Fat Man”
3. “We Used To Know”
4. “Reasons For Waiting”
5. “For A Thousand Mothers”

And now that your memory has been duly refreshed, stop with the sitting and go grab yourself a copy of STAND UP!
