Heavy Horses (3CD/2DVD ltd.) 2024 Repress, New Shoes edition
Jethro Tull
Limited 2024 rerun of this deluxe box set originally release in 2018.
40th anniversary 'New Shoes Edition' of Heavy Horses, a 3CD/2DVD boxed set released by Parlophone Records. This edition features the original album, plus additional studio recordings, live material and an extensive new booklet.
Released between Songs From The Wood (1977) and Stormwatch (1979), Heavy Horses was the second in a trilogy of folk rock albums from Jethro Tull. Lead singer and flautist Ian Anderson explained its particular focus on horses and agricultural life saying, "as a child, my big passion was to get off the leash and explore the local wooded and leafy suburbs. So it didn't suddenly become new in 1977, it was just that the subject matter fitted what I wanted to write about at the time."
Upon release, Heavy Horses was a top 20 album on both sides of the Atlantic. Commercial success was met equally with critical praise for its melodies, instrumentation and Anderson's signature flute playing. This anniversary edition features the original album with nine additional bonus tracks, seven of which are previously unreleased. HEAVY HORSES: NEW SHOES EDITION also contains a live concert from May 1978, and two DVDs which feature the original, bonus, and live tracks all mixed to surround sound by Steven Wilson and Jakko Jakszyk. A 96-page booklet covers a history of the album and corresponding tour, complete lyrics, rare photos and exclusive interviews.
