3CD/2DVD release of Jethro Tull’s “Heavy Horses” remixed by Steven Wilson together with what looks like an extended version of their live “Bursting Out” album (i.e. a live concert from Berne, Switzerland on 28th May 1978) mixed by Jakko Jakszyk.
DVDs include Hi-Res stereo and 5.1 DTS/DD versions of both albums.

Ordered mine. Been pretty impressed with everything Steve Wilson has done to date but might be just reaching my threshold in terms of the back catalogue. Perhaps Stormwatch but surely no further.

Heavy Horses was the first album I bought, and I think I wore it smooth. My brother and I shared pocket money for Abba Greatest Hits so that does not count.

Read an interesting article in The Absolute Sound, January 2018, issue 279, regarding the recording of a soon-to-be-released Reference Recordings (label) of all-Rachmaninov program including the Trio No. 2 in D Minor (attn: Doug, aka Florestan). I was at amazon and the Reference Recordings site (they do downloads) and don't see it available yet.

Editorial reviews

"The group colloquially known as the Standards trio has made many outstanding recordings, and After The Fall must rank with the very best of them. I was amazed to hear how well the music worked, writes Keith Jarrett in his liner note. For me, its not only a historical document, but a truly great concert. This performance in Newark, New Jersey in November 1998 marked Jarretts return to the concert stage after a two year hiatus. Joined by improvising partners Gary Peacock and Jack DeJohnette, he glides and soars through classics of the Great American Songbook including The Masquerade Is Over, Autumn Leaves, When I Fall In Love and Ill See You Again. There are also breath-taking accounts of hallowed bebop tunes including Charlie Parkers Scrapple From The Apple, Bud Powells Bouncin With Bud and Sonny Rollins Doxy."

The Decemberists release a new album, "I'll Be Your Girl", in the US on March 16. One article described it as "synth-laden" (Go, Jenny).

It will be a recording of the November 14, 1998 concert at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark.

The tracklist should be as follows:
