40 YEARS 'THE BROADSWORD AND THE BEAST': JETHRO TULL ANNOUNCES ANNIVERSARY EDITION. AVAILABLE AS 'MONSTER EDITION' (5CD+3DVD) AND 'Vinyl EDITION' (4LP).

There are many well-known prog-rock bands and folk groups in music history, but few have been able to establish a unique characteristic like Jethro Tull - in their case, the innovative way they merged both influences into something new and exciting. A prime example of this is 'Broadsword And The Beast,' the band's 14th studio album released in 1982 from Luton, UK. For its 40th anniversary, Jethro Tull has announced a 40th Anniversary Edition of the work. 'Broadsword And The Beast' continues to captivate fans with its distinctive blend of rock, folk, and progressive influences, masterful storytelling, and Ian Anderson's unmistakable flute melodies. The album also received critical acclaim. The anniversary edition includes new mixes by Steven Wilson, demos, rough mixes, live recordings, and sessions from 1981. For those looking for the complete experience, the 'Monster Edition' on five CDs and three DVDs is available, and a regular 'Vinyl Edition' on 4LPs will also be released. The 40th Anniversary Editions of 'Broadsword And The Beast' are available starting September 1st.
