My intent was to focus on the 'bonus material' in the deluxe re-issues as opposed to the albums. We've now got a bunch. Just wondering what people's favourite bonus disc, or biggest revelation, has been so far? The magnificent Aqualung bonus with Wondering Aloud/Again? The Château d'Hérouville tapes? The live 75 show? The bounty of 74 era rarities?
We've been a fortunate bunch recently.

My favorite bonus release was the 20th anniversary box set which of course included Jack-A-Lynn, Coronach, Jack Frost, Stormy Monday, Aeroplane, Motoreyes, Blue Instrumental, Crossword, Part of the Machine, Overhang, Pibroch instrumental, among others.

Well, good question, where to begin, indeed, there is so much, but for me it was MU, with the great great 'Rainbow Blues'. Pieter

I can name more strong bonus songs than album songs for Tull. So many great bonus tracks.
My newest fave is Good godmother. My faves are:
Love story Living in the past Teacher Witches promise Up the pool Life a long song Wondring again Audition Left right Good godmother Glory row Saturation Summerday sands Strip cartoon Blues instrumental Living in these hard times Crossword Stitch in time Too many too I'm your gun Night in the wilderness It all trickles down

And so many more not yet mentioned in this thread. I'm not including anything from LITP as I consider it more of an official release. More of the best include:
Broadford Bazaar Down at the End of Your Road Truck Stop Runner Lights Out Silver River Turning No Rehearsal King Henry's Madrigal Beltane Man of Principle One for John Gee A Small Cigar ( other's may hate but I love) The Curse (never thought much of it until listening on head phones and was blown away)
List could go on an on.

I concur that overall... the 20th Anniversary Set was an incredible eye-opener. And I agree with Cecil that at least as many of my favourite Tull tunes were never slated for official release as appeared on albums. I can't think of a single other band that is true for...

I agree "Rainbow Blues" fantastic song!!' First time I heard it was on WarChild when I got the box set. (even though I've been a fan since I was 10 and I'm 57 now)
