Released: 2008 (UK, USA) "This Was" got it's name from Ian Anderson
who wanted to make a statement that the record's blues sound reflected a temporary
nature of the
band's sound.
Tull's
first recording is celebrated with a wonderful new 2 CD collection.
The collection
features the remastered stereo mix, various BBC live
recordings, rare singles, liner notes from every band member, and
for the first time ever a remastered release of the original mono
tapes.
