Video and DVD

Tull has four DVD collections in release: "Living with the Past," "A New Day Yesterday: the 25th Anniversary Collection 1969-1994," the historic "Nothing is Easy: Live at the Isle of Wight 1970," and "Live at Montreux 2003." Ian has a solo orchestral DVD as well: "Ian Anderson Plays the Orchestral Jethro Tull." You will find special samples and multimedia previews for most of the DVDs via their individual pages. Two older videos, "Slipstream" and "The 20th Anniversary" are not in print though "Slipstream" is part of the remastered "A" album (UK release January 2004, USA April 2004) .
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.
Ian Anderson Plays the Orchestral Jethro Tull
	In recent years, Ian has been performing orchestral concerts with his "Rubbing Elbows" band mates. This DVD was recorded in December 2004 in Mannheim, Germany with the Neue Philharmonie Frankfurt Orchestra and features solo, classical and Tull material.
