    To follow its stellar 1975 release Minstrel In the Gallery, Jethro Tull’s ambitious plans included a group album, in addition to a stage musical about an aging rock star. Midway through the process, however, the band decided to abandon the stage musical and use the musical songs as the basis for what would become its ninth studio album, Too Old To Rock ‘n’ Roll: Too Young To Die!

    Before the album’s 40th anniversary next spring, Parlophone will release a deluxe edition of TOO OLD TO ROCK ‘N’ ROLL: TOO YOUNG TO DIE! in the fall. This 2CD/2DVD set will be available on November 27.

    Highlights from the set include:

    An unreleased, alternate version of the album recorded for a British television special and remixed by Steven Wilson
    Bonus tracks (18 previously unreleased), all mixed to 5.1 surround and stereo by Steven Wilson
    Flat transfer of the original LP mix at 96/24
    Commercial debut of footage from the television special
    Presented in a case-bound DVD book that includes an 80-page booklet with an extensive history of the album, track-by-track annotations by Ian Anderson, plus rare and unseen photographs
    Includes the gatefold cartoon from the original album drawn by renowned comic artist Dave Gibbons

    TOO OLD TO ROCK ‘N’ ROLL: TOO YOUNG TO DIE! was the band’s first with John Glascock on bass and backing vocals. But it wasn’t just the band dynamic that was changing, the music was evolving too, and this album helped bridge the progressive rock of Tull’s early years with the folk-rock that would shape its musical direction throughout the late Seventies.

    The first disc features an unreleased, alternate version of the album that the band recorded for a British television special. At the time, union rules forbid bands from lip-syncing the original album on television, which is why Jethro Tull found itself in a studio re-recording the album in March 1976. For this deluxe edition, Steven Wilson re-mixed that alternate version of the album, as well as five songs earmarked for the finished album, including “Big Dipper,” “From A Dead Beat To An Old Greaser” and the title track.

    It should be noted that the album couldn’t be totally remixed because multi-track recordings for several songs are missing.

    The second CD includes nine rare and unreleased bonus tracks like “Commercial Traveller,” “Salamander Ragtime” and an early version of “One Brown Mouse”, plus a flat transfer of the original album.

    The first DVD includes the commercial debut of the entire British television special along with several audio mixes of the show: DTS & Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound, and Dolby Digital Stereo. The audio from the special is also included in 96/24 stereo PCM. The five tracks from the original LP are here as well, in DTS & Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound and 96/24 stereo PCM.

    The second DVD includes some mixes of the associated recordings in DTS & Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound and 96/24 stereo PCM. Also featured is a flat transfer of the original LP at 96/24 stereo PCM, in addition to a flat transfer of the original 1976 Quad LP Production Master with DTS 4.0 and Dolby Digital AC3 4.0 surround sound.

    Interesting... so on the CD side, disc one is the re-recorded version remixed by Steve Wilson and disc two has the original mix as a "flat transfer", but starting with track 9? Strange they put the bonus tracks ahead of the album proper on disc 2.

    How do the tv special re-recorded tracks compare to what was released as the original album? Are there large differences between the two (or at least interesting variations)? I'm surprised that this is the one SW remixed and is being presented as the new main album. Does Ian (and SW) really like it that much more than what was released on the album?

    Well... I want it. I didn't realize the multis for much album were missing in action. Looking forward to hear it and to hear "Commercial Traveller". A pity about "Advertising Man", but maybe the booklet will explain the situation.

    Someone should change the year in the thread title. I've been ignoring this for a while thinking it was just discussion of what people would like the set to be when it comes out next year. I didn't know it was being released so soon. Nice surprise.

    Hold on, was the TV special really a complete re-recording of the album? The sound quality of the clips isn't too great, but everything I've heard sounds like different lead vocals against a different mix of the standard album.
     
  15. Another auto buy for me. I love these sets.

    Woah, this is turning into one wacky reissue. I love it!

    Although, I have a feeling we'll wish the original mix got a proper, tasteful remastering, to nicely accompany what SW will do with the alternate takes.

    SW´s notes:

    Parlophone Records have announced the next in the series of expanded Jethro Tull 40th anniversary sets for release on 27th November, this time for 1976 album "Too Old To Rock’n’Roll: Too Young to Die". “The TV Special Edition" contains my remixes in stereo and 5.1 surround sound. As with the previous three releases in the series, it consists of 2 CDs and 2 DVDs. CD1 contains a 2015 remix of a version of the album re-recorded for a TV special, and remixes of the 5 album multitrack masters that could be located (alas 5 could not). CD2 consists of a complete flat transfer of the original stereo mix, and 8 bonus tracks, 7 of which are 2015 remixes. Among these are 2 previously unheard songs; Salamander’s Ragtime (completely unrelated to album track Salamander), and Commercial Traveller. A further previously announced out-take Advertising Man was ultimately found to be not sufficiently complete to merit inclusion.

    DVD1 features the TV special broadcast in full, making it’s commercial debut and with the remixed soundtrack in high res stereo and 5.1 surround sound. The 5 album track remixes are also included in 5.1 surround sound and high resolution stereo. DVD2 features the bonus tracks in high res audio, 4 also in 5.1 surround sound, and flat transfers of the original stereo and quadraphonic mixes.

    As with all of the Tull deluxe editions, this is a limited run, presented in a case-bound DVD book that includes an 80-page booklet with an extensive history of the album, track-by-track annotations by Ian Anderson, plus rare and unseen photographs.

    A real pitty that the multi tracks for half the album tracks are missing, but in any case I am in principle more than happy to see what will ultimately be released, except for the missing unreleased tracks. Most fans (or at least the ones that buy these reissues) don´t care too much if an unreleased track is in a very embrionic state. Release it! Also a it unconfortable to have the album tracks over and over on 1 CD, but I guess nobody is obligued to listen to it from start to finish every time...

    I very much agree, but I remember one track from the "Aqualung" sessions, "Pancake Domesday", that was exluded because it was just a backing track with no vocals. Maybe it was the same situation here? I guess this is where Ian drops the line regarding outtakes.

    But yeah, I'd like to hear it the same, maybe even just a special feature on the DVD only. Any unreleased and found Tull is worth preserving, in my opinion.

    Well in the special edition of Aqualung´s booklet, in the recording chronography, alternate takes of Aqualung, Locomotive, etc are displayed. Do they actually exist on the multis?
