| A
New Day Yesterday: the 25th Anniversary Collection 1969-1994 |
|
Originally released
as VHS in 1994, this 1.5 hour collection is remastered to DVD with
stereo sound. Included are Tull music videos, great interviews from
current (well, in 1994) and past members at a reunion staged in London,
and live performances over the years.
A highlight is the ever controversial "The Story of the Hare that Lost His
Spectacles" video, for how "over the top" it is and the amazing
production quality for 1973 (compare early MTV). |
| Living
with the Past |
 |
"LWTP" features songs
from a specially recorded concert at London's Hammersmith Apollo
Theatre in 2001. It includes lots of documentary backstage
snippets, and interviews and insights along with a reunion of the
original 1968 lineup for a few songs in a small pub. A special bonus
is the intimate acoustic recording session with Ian on:
Wond'ring Aloud and Life Is A Long
Song, both of which are bolstered by the presence of a string quartet.

| Nothing
is Easy: Live at the Isle of Wright 1970 |
 |
Tull played the final
day of the legendary Isle of Wight festival (often called the "British
Woodstock") in 1970. Tull fans now can own
this
classic, previously unreleased live recording of the band's
early work. The DVD masterfully intersperses
comments from Ian about the "hippie" period,
the festival, the technical and logistic difficulties of the soundcheck, Tull's
legacy, and the band's performance, as well as a photo
gallery of
Tull from the festival.
This approximately eighty-minute DVD has superior audio, including options for
Dolby Surround 5.1 and DTS, outstanding sound quality. |
| Live
at Montreux 2003 |
 |
In 2003, Tull made
their first (and so far only) visit to the Montreux Festival. Split
into a semi-acoustic first half and a full on electric second half,
the concert was a triumph combining newer songs such as “Dot
Com”, “Pavane,” and “Budapest” with
classic favorites.
