- Here's my collection of all 17 Jethro Tull Deluxe Edition Box Sets. I go through each of the boxes so you can see what box is comprised of. Along with The Who and Bob Dylan, no one has done a better job of re-issuing their musical history. And as far as dollar value, nothing comes close to this series of Jethro Tull box sets.

Those individual LP boxes are just stunning!
Yea - they really are. I'm lucky to have them. Thanks.
If I could go back to my teenage years in the early seventies, I would certainly go back to see, again, the Brick and then Passion tours at Boston Garden. The old barn filled with reefer smoke, rabid Tull fans, and a band that put on quite a concert. Memories rock.
Your comment just took me back as well. Thems were the days. And 5 dollar tickets.
Are you sure you are not the world’s biggest Jethro Tull fan? Your collection of Tull box sets, albums, CDs, DVDs and memorabilia is amazing. What I think is probably even more astonishing is that you have read the books from the deluxe edition box sets from cover to cover. There is not a detail about each of these 17 deluxe offerings that you have not examined. With the beautiful design aesthetics and comprehensive contents of the box sets, Ian Anderson has made sure that no expense was spared to preserve the impressive legacy of Jethro Tull. And, with your vast Tull collection and wealth of band knowledge, Alan, you have done a wonderful job introducing viewers to or reminding them of Tull’s extraordinary legacy.
Thanks so much. Luckily each box came out like one a year, so it wasn't too overwhelming. I'm waiting with baited breath for the next one which is The Broadsword and The Beast - a personal favorite of mine with the amazing song "Pussy Willow". It apparently will be the biggest of the boxsets yet.
I love when an artist goes all out on their box sets. They’re for diehard fans who love physical media and want the ultimate archive of their favorite albums. The Who, The Stones, The Beatles and John Lennon are the best in my opinion.
yea - I should have mentioned The Beatles / John Lennon ones as well. Amazing. I have The Stones super deluxes as well, but probably because I'm such a huge Stones collector, I was disappointed in them, but that's just me.
Love the t shirt, I remember seeing Tull on their Songs from the Wood tour, besides the usual classics, the songs from that album were spectacular live.
Yea my favorite Tull album and great tour. Have a great bootleg video from a UK broadcast from that tour. Fantastic. You were lucky to see that tour. Thanks
Awesome Video with a great T-shirt and liked all the Box Sets & I was attracted to the one you referred to as a Cigar box packing (cool looking ) Thanks you for doing a Jethro Tull Box Set video. I got to see them Twice - Passion Play & Warchild Tours. 👏
Thanks. You are so lucky to have seen those early tours. I was too young. I can't imagine how great those tours must have been actually in person. Does it get better than Ian Anderson in a cod piece...lol. I think not.
Tull is the best band in R&R history. I had that shirt in 78 and wore it out .... LOL ! I've seen them live 23 times.
Just when you think you’re a big fan you meet someone like you. You’ve seen them live 23 times. Now that’s a fan. Awesome. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Really appreciate it.
The only show I missed was Thick as a Brick tour. I'm a major fan, but I've heard of people who have traveled worldwide following them, and have seen them so many times.
@@shimwooley I guess it's all relative, but you're obviously an incredible fan and I applaud that. I wish I could go back in time to see those magical early tours.
Jethro Tull made my life better !! I appreciate the fact that you have all the boxsets.
great stuff for a great band
Thanks so much.
Great show Alan.I for one can never get enough of Tull.The around the world box my only complaint I would of wanted early 70s Tull when Anderson wore the cod piece.The Too Old To Rock n Roll album in my opionion is the same as yours love the album songs like Quiz Kid,Salamander and Taxi Grab are classics in my book.The only box I have that you didn't show is I believe the 30th anniversary of Aqualung had a picture disc and cd of Aqualung and a huge hard bound book of all the lyrics of every song up until that point.I will be watching this video again as well as your ranking of Tull Alan.I will be pulling out some Tull tonight also.Again great job Alan
Thanks so much. Unfortunately I don’t think there’s much video of that classic early period. Such a shame there’s no pro shot of passion play, thick as a brick. Don’t remember if there’s any Warchild footage either. Ian said they didn’t think about that back then. What a shame. I forgot about that version of Aqualung. I don’t have it. But I’ve seen it and was real nice. .
Thanks for the video, Alan. I agree, the Tull box sets are unlike any other. They're incredible. I only wish I had them all. I only have 4, but plan to purchase others ( whenever I can afford them).
Thanks. They’re not easy to find for reasonable prices but I hope you eventually do find them. Maybe they’ll reissue them again like TAAB. Best Alan
Great Tull collection! Congrats from Barcelona, Spain!
Thanks so much and thanks for watching all the way from beautiful Barcelona.
Really nice boxed sets, die hard Tull Fan I am. I like the version of Rocks On The Road from a Little Light Music.
Thanks. Yea A Little Light Music is a really enjoyable unplugged album. Always really liked Rocks On The Road - really good track.
These are the best cd bix sets I have ever seen.
My favorite are from 1968 to 1974
thanks - they are amazing - the books in them alone are incredible. the most in depth coverage I've ever read of an album in a box set. Plus all the discs. And on top of that - a very reasonable price for all that you're getting. Ian Anderson and Tull have done a masterful job of reissuing the classic Tull albums. Now where is the damn Rock and Roll Hall of Fame???
Too Old to Rock and Roll is one of my very favorites. Not their "proggiest" by any means, but man they have the songs and melodies down on that one. Every song delivers, for me. With the TV special, that was one I was really looking forward to. I'd love to get Songs From the Wood but I slept on it & now I can't afford it. $400!
Glad you love TOTRR also. I think it’s underrated in their catalog. Nice box of it too
Great job. Thanks.
Thanks so much.
Great video, Alan! Thanks for going into so much detail! I'm late to the party with these sets, but I have gathered several of them recently.
Thanks so much. Congratulations on getting some of these. Nots so easy to find and can get very expensive. But they’re amazing. Thanks so much again
Great Collection also have all the box sets and all the albums and re editions, also Ian,s solo albums
That’s awesome. It’s s lot to collect but so much to enjoy.
@@TheAlanRosenbergShow And for me it all started in 1971 with my 1st JT Album Aqualung, from there I was hooked, I mean Cross Eyed Mary Blows my mind, And Aqualung still my favorite, never seem to get sick of it. 5.1 surround sound and Loud🤣
@@gideonlapidus8996 love it. First Tull album I ever heard too. My first studio Tull I bought when released was Songs From The Wood. My favorite to this day.
The Tull box sets are great, too many highlights to mention, but like you, I've managed to collect the complete set. The 20th Anniversary box was special on release, I never bothered with the cigar box though due to the content.
After Broadsword Alan, apparently they are doing the Bursting Out Album as a box set. Steven Wilson has done some of the remixing. Keep up the good work, you have some brilliant content up on CZcams.
Thanks so much. I just heard about the Bursting Out album box, which is surprising (though I'm certainly looking forward to it). Ian always said they played a similar setlist and there wasn't much left off of Bursting Out, so curious what would be on it. Perhaps the MSG 1978 stuff, but they already released that previously. Personally I'd love to see them redo Underwraps with a real drummer. Ian said it would be too expensive to redo it, but I don't get it. I once saw a CZcams video of a drummer playing the album and it was amazing.
@@TheAlanRosenbergShow it's got me wondering too. There's the recent Thin Lizzy boxset which seems to be a recording from each night of the Live and Dangerous tour, this approach doesn't really appeal to me. I wonder if the first set from the Madison Garden gig exists before what was the live simultaneous broadcast. I remember watching the TV special live in the uk with FM stereo turned up to max.
I'm not a fan of Underwraps to be honest Alan, sorry, but should it ever materialise, I will of course have to purchase it. I saw the tour and bought the album on release, but it's the songs that leave me cold as well. I'm in complete agreement with you about Stormwatch though, it just gets better with age, I don't understand the bands general negatively towards it. I think it's definitely a Fan favourite, along with Too Old..... Another gem which you are right about too.
@@keitholiver1299 I never liked the Underwraps album either (except really for Lap Of Luxury and the title track). I hated the electronic drum sound. But Ian and Martin Barre always had such praises for the album. Then I saw this CZcams video where a drummer played live drums to the album - and wow - it was like night and day. But I guess we'll be stuck with it as it is now. As for MSG - I have the DVD / CD set they released back in 2009. The CD has: Sweet Dream, One Brown Mouse, Heavy Horses, Thick As A Brick, No Lullaby, Songs From The Wood, Quatrain, Aqualung, Locomotive Breath, Too Old To Rock 'n' Roll, My God / Cross - Eyed Mary. So pretty much only Heavy Horses is not on Bursting Out (and the My God part of Cross-Eyed Mary). I also don't need multiple copies of the same songs...I guess we'll see.
Hi again Alan - you wont believe what I just picked up off Amazon. Tulls 50th Anniversary Thick as a Brick 2CD box set - $37 AUD - amazing price. They seem to have these specials every now and then, so I'll keep an eye out for those early box sets. If I can pick them up for those prices I'm all in. I also just picked up Their Fully Authorised Story - 2DVD set. Looking forward to getting that. Cya Doug
Awesome. I’ve noticed every once in a while they come up for sale for a fantastic price. Good luck. They’re fantastic packages.
Alan not the biggest Tull fan, you must be in the top 5 of Tull fans. Your collection is amazing. I had the 20 years box set on cassette when it came out, the cd was very expensive. Anyway I've picked it up for £25 from E Bay, it's was in mint condition and I got the book with it, I needed Conorach and Black Satin on cd as I got rid of all my vinyl and cassettes years ago. I didn't get that cigar box set, because I don't like remakes of tacks, Christmas album for one. Anyway thanks for showing that book from the cigar, great book, I've just ordered it from E Bay. Funny enough I just bought that Zealot Gene deluxe 3 cds from amazon for £12 brand new, I wanted the demos.i bought Rok flute 3 cds deluxe that was £20 , I also have the cds as well. Anyway keep up the good work.
@@stephenwaters1242 thanks so much. I really appreciate it. I hope you love those box sets. Gotta say the original 20 years boxset is still amongst my all time favorites. Congratulations on great deals your getting as well. Fantastic.
@@TheAlanRosenbergShow , your welcome Alan, yea it's the trailblazer alright, brilliant box set (only cd version) LOL. And the books take them to the next level, and some people complain about the price of them, unbelievable, they would moan if they were Who fans with the price of their remasters. I've got a bone to pick with you, in your singer/ songwriter show you only had 3 Cat Stevens cds ,tut tut !!! And no Roy Harper tut tut. Anyway I really enjoy your videos. At least you he'd Neil young in there.
Enjoyed that,I have them all,well worth the money. You didn't mention on minstrel The Who used Jethro Tulls PA for some of their shows at some football grounds concerts.
Yes - thanks for adding that information - Tull always had a great sound system.
It's in the minstrel book, it's the roadies talking about the red truck part.
@@stephenwaters1242 yes indeed.
I don't own ... Songs from the wood. Or Under Wraps.. pretty much got the rest.. Great show Alan..
Thanks so much Glen. Gotta get Songs From the Wood. At least the regular version. So great.
@@TheAlanRosenbergShow I been listening to Songs from the wood on utube.. good stuff.. I'll have it soon enough.. love it man.. I'll be waiting Fer ur next show.. I'm still thinking no Stones tour
@@glendepietro1521 I think you're right. When you first mentioned it to me - seemed like it was going to be delayed. Now the story is they're having trouble booking venues etc...but to me that sounds doubtful.. I think you're onto something. They are still supposed to be releasing their first real studio album since A Bigger Bang and my thought was they want to give it a huge push including a matching tour, so it will at least sell something. But now with no tour on the horizon, who knows what will be. They do seem to be very tight lipped, but then again, it's never even come out officially how Charlie Watts died.
The Tanglewood show is from 7/7/70 and they opened up for The Who that night. The Who gig is outstanding and is available on bootleg video and Cd.
Yes - thanks for adding that great info. Legendary show in it's time.
Isn't it similar to ... Isle of Wight and Woodstock . So many show filmed ... but not in 1971... Who's Next and Aqualung...
@@FuturePast2019 i don’t remember if I saw the complete Who tangle wood show. It’s a good bet though that’s it’s similar. They were in their prime back then I don’t have that bootleg video.
I agree the steven Wilson remixed box sets sound is unbelivable
Yes. Can’t wait for Broadsword. I think it will be amongst the very best.
@@TheAlanRosenbergShow Can't wait for the SW remix of Broadsword, hopefully we see a Crest of a Knave remix as well
@@gideonlapidus8996 I think he said they were done after Broadsword but would be great to continue. Crest is a great idea. I’d love to hear Under Wraps with a real drummer. Some guy who was a great drummer played along to Under Wraps on a CZcams video and it was great. What a difference a live drum sound makes.
Hi Alan - just found your channel. I was looking for Tull box sets and came across your review of your box sets - brilliant. I have half a dozen Tull boxes, but they are not cheap and money doesnt grow on trees - well not for me anyway. Just recently picked up "A" for $18.00 AUD (Aussie Dollars) how ridiculous is that lolol. My fav is probably the 20 years of Jethro Tull. Its just packed with classic Tull from their classic era. Mind you Broadsword is one of my fav Tull albums also - much later of course, but brilliant all the same. Saw them numerous times in concert in the UK late 60's early 70's - great live, the classic years, love all their albums from that time. Cheers Doug (from Down Under)
Thanks so much Doug for discovering my channel and commenting on your love of Tull. Nice to hear , all the way from Down Under. I'm looking forward to the Broadsword Box. Fantastic pick up for you of "A". Money is tight for me. Many new albums, I buy much after they come out, to hopefully save money on them...I can relate. The Tull boxes in general are good value, when the first come out. They do seem to go for crazy money now...so I'm lucky I got them pretty quickly. My fave is also the 20 Years box. Amazing box. Thanks so much again.
I’m not sure whether to thank you or curse you…lol. I’ve been wanting to explore more Tull for some time now. Your video got me primed and then I went to find some of these excellent deluxe editions and they are very difficult to find them. Now I’m sad…just kidding around. Thanks for the excellent overview…
Thanks. If it makes you feel better. I didn’t get the Broadsword deluxe yet. Waiting for price drop. But I will get it for sure.
Hey Alan - just started to pick up a couple of the Tull box sets, after watching your previews - I already had one box set, plus all the usual CD's of course. After much angst and hunting around I have picked up 3 or 4 so far at really amazing prices, however - it seems that some people want the earth for them? Also some are very hard to get. I am having difficulty tracking down Standup, Songs From The Wood, Minstrel in the Gallery, Warchild etc. I hope to eventually track them down, am in no rush but as you say once they're gone thats it ? They are certainly excellent value thats for sure. For me I think the first 3 Tull albums will always be at the top of my favourite list. Just listening to This Was at the moment - brilliant. I mean take "Love Story" - now thats a driving song, and it just doesnt get any better than that. Almost caught up with all your utube videos now. Keep on rockin Cya Doug
Thanks so much Doug. I really appreciate it. I always liked This Was. But I really learned to appreciate it and really like it from the boxset. Hearing it over and over. Different mixes. Great debut like you said. And unique in the Tull discography
Hi Alan Thanks for turning on the comments. I only own a best of Jethro Tull cd. They were different from other groups, with Ian Anderson playing the flute in their music. My favorite songs are Bungle in the Jungle, Living in the Past, Locomotive Breath, Too old to Rock 'n' Roll, too young to Die. I think Locomotive Breath was banned from radio airplay in the UK ?. You may know about that Alan ?. What is your favorite song of theirs ? I didn't know they played Carnegie Hall in 1970. Excellent boxed sets, great booklets that go along with them. Thanks for your posting.
Thanks as always. I couldn't pick my absolute favorite song. Will say that I love all the ones you mentioned and Bungle In The Jungle and Too Old To Rock 'n' Roll are special to me because they were amongst the first songs I ever heard - they were actually hits in the US and I heard them on the radio - were great days back then.
Jethro Tull really know how to do deluxe editions of their albums...and at decent prices. I am awaiting your review of the new album. You are 47 subscribers away from 1,000. By the way, nice color vinyl from Keith and the Stones this Saturday for Record Store Day.
I’ll definitely be getting it. Will go for the deluxe box again but waiting on a price drop. Yea the Stones colored vinyl looks great especially Beggars Banquet. But I won’t be buying it. I have enough copies. Lol.
I have all the box sets
Nice - that's a great collection.
I follow different people's channels. I have varied interests. Music, Art, fashion, cars etc, and sometimes the comment section is turned off on the channel. And I want to leave a message.. And I'm thinking why can't i leave a comment because i have something I want to say. Frustrating sometimes. I don't have my own channel, so i don't know about these things.
Thanks Carl. Was my error. I hit no comments by mistake. Thanks for letting me know. I LOVE getting comments and I allow every kind - good or bad.
Great format box sets with great mixes by Steven Wilson. The only thing missing is a live show from 1972.
My favorite live show is MSG 1978 DVD. Released in 2009, just before the box sets started. Who mixed this concert?
czcams.com/video/cDAiJ04UShM/video.html So good.
Yes. I also have the MSG box with the cd and dvd. It was mixed by Peter Mew at Abbey Road. A shame the dvd is only part of the show though.
@@TheAlanRosenbergShow Good old... Mew mixed the Machine Head UK Quad in 1972. Released on SACD in 2003.
Yes, why didn't they film the whole show...You can't always get...
And the Paris 1975 show is missing a few songs... Thick as a Brick etc. (and footage)
@@FuturePast2019 The Tull MSG video footage was from a satellite feed from MSG to be show around the world - I believe the first of it's kind ever - back in 1978. My understanding is they were only able to broadcase a part of the show which is what we have. I'm just surprised they didn't video record the whole show and have it in the can all these years...but apparently only what was broadcast which is a bummer.
3 or 4 decent singles from back then. We saw them at Brian Epstein's Saville Theatre. This is just collecting a load of boxes.
Well a lot of really great boxes to me...and others.
