To celebrate the 40th anniversary of one of Jethro Tull’s most radical musical departures, a 3CD/3DVD casebound book deluxe edition of A.
The album introduced a new sound and a new line-up including Dave Pegg and Eddie Jobson (who features prominently on keyboards and violin).
Originally intended as a solo record by Ian Anderson, the album’s single-letter title refers to the studio tapes, which were marked “A” for Anderson. When the album was completed, the group’s label Chrysalis insisted that it be credited to Jethro Tull.

- The original album and associated recordings remixed in DTS and Dolby AC 3, 5.1 Surround, and stereo 96/24 LPCM by Steven Wilson
- A full concert from the LA Sports Arena recorded in August 1980 mixed by Steven Wilson in DTS and Dolby AC 3, 5.1 Surround, and stereo 96/24 LPCM
