Has a decision been made about an UW bookset and remix?
I'd prefer Knave next (more sales). UW is not as important IMO.
I posted that to get this response. Thanks. CheersUnder Wraps is a master piece in disguise (under wraps). It is IMPORTANT.

Would love to see UW reimagined. Let Wilson take a more dramatic approach. If that is too much for some purist fans, we could do the reimagined album as a separate release. I would buy both.Under Wraps is a master piece in disguise (under wraps). It is IMPORTANT.
A full surround remix with re-recorded real drums could significantly improve Under Wraps, assuming a complete re-recording is not feasible. This far into the catalog I'll probably buy all the rest of them regardless of what they do, but after Broadsword I'd really like to see Crest Of A Knave and Roots To Branches before any remaining titles.

Since number of discs doesn't seem to be a limiting factor with this series, I wouldn't mind having several mixes of Under Wraps in one package. They could remix the original faithfully as well as with improved drum samples, and then finally have a partial re-recording with a real drummer (Ian has explicitly mentioned in interviews as something he'd like to do).
Dream. Bingo! Wish!
A short walk into 5.1 Under Wraps. All together now would be so cool.

They say it's somewhere out on the edge of town. Perhaps it isn't really there at all.

I agree. One box to rule them all would be optimal. There is pro-shot concert footage from the Capitol Theater show in New Jersey. Ian's voice is pretty shot by this point.

I would love to hear Walk Into Light made a proper Tull album with drums and guitar fromm Perry and Barre. But that is a private fantasy that will never happen.
Plus the setlist on the Capitol Theater concert isn't as good as the Hammersmith Odeon shows: by then "Apogee", "Level Pegging", "Pussy Willow", "Made in England" and "European Legacy" had all been dropped. "Apogee", in particular, is a song that benefits a lot from the live setting because of the more upfront electric guitar and Doane Perry using a regular drum kit.
On the plus side it has the cool "My Sunday Feeling" medley.

I was kidding about the Knave before Under Wraps. Being a knave is my specialty. Too Tull>

Cool. I thought the Hammersmith was only audio.

I am curious about your opinion on the sound of the three demos. I am a bit disappointed. The Dinosaur and DJ tracks have been known about for some time, but I thought these were finished studio tracks. Not demos. How out of place would they sound next to the finished tracks we already have?
