Jethro Tull Stand Up Deluxe (11/18/16 release date)*

To this day, I still don´t know which of the puppets on the album cover is Martin

 

Those are puppets? Martin is to Ian's right on the front and on the inside.

 

I was just kidding, I know where Martin is, but the drawn character doesn't look like him...

 

That's true. Not a great likeness is it? Probably drew it before he even knew what Martin looked like.

 

Any of you commenting on the front cover art ever count Ian's fingers (and thumbs)??

 

On amazon now for pre-order: https://www.amazon.com/Stand-Up-Ele...F8&qid=1472960696&sr=1-1&keywords=jethro+tull
Placed my order currently at $34.98, but I bet the price drops before shipment.

 

Reached #6 in the amazon charts...not bad for an album 47 years old...

 

Well, I did now! Hmmmmm. How'd that get past inspection !

 

Stand Up won New Musical Express's award for best album artwork in 1969.

Wood carving prints on display in Norwalk »
Artist James Grashow holds one of his wood carving prints on display this fall.

Stand Up (Jethro Tull album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia »

 

Quick thread drift; Grashow did these too:

 

An idea just crossed my mind... Maybe they ARE going to rerelease Benefit in the book format, changing nothing much about the contents, 2cd and 1 dvd, but adding an extra CD featuring the WHOLE Carnegie Hall concert, remixed and restored...? That would be nice wouldn't it? It would be one way to force me to buy the thing again, that's for sure!

That would only leave This Was "orphaned" from this campaign, from the whole Tull Glory Years 1968-1979, right?

 

Better to have Songs From the Wood next. IMHO

 

Definetively

 

At the current exchange rate, this is just under $32 shipped via Amazon UK:

the entire Carnegie hall show wasn't on stand up deluxe?

 

wow thanks for this, I am going to go check this out and see if anything is for sale

 

He also did the cover of an LP by a band called "Catfish".

 

It looks like how Martin looked like in the first months of 1969. Take a look at the Stockholm video!

That's a cool looking cover

 

They are all too similar.

 

Yeah I've been waiting for that one and I have the existing Stand Up Deluxe which I love, I still preordered the new one tho.

 

I've seen those other covers he did but never connected artist to art before. Now I love the Stand Up art even better.

 

It was, but the mix wasn't as good as it could have been. It's a bit bland, isn't it?

 

You "screamed in terror" and "dropped the album on the floor". Are we supposed to believe that?
