Jethro Tull / A Passion Play: An Extended Performance deluxe set
Jethro Tull’s 1973 album A Passion Play will be reissued as a four-disc anniversary deluxe set in June.
The 1973 follow-up to Thick As A Brick has been given a new stereo mix by Steven Wilson, as well as being mixed for 5.1 surround sound. Not only that, the earlier abandoned sessions that the band recorded in Chateau d’Herouville in France, get the same treatment – new stereo mixes and 5.1 surround mixes!
The 2CD+2DVD set offers the stereo mixes in hi-res (on the DVDs) while the surround sound options include DTS and Dolby 5.1. A new 2LP vinyl version with the new stereo mix is also being released.
A Passion Play: An Extended Performance is out on 16 June.
