Well! Amazing what a Steven Wilson remix can do... As a fan of JT for 36 years, I had always placed "Too Old To Rock 'n' Roll: Too Young To Die" at the bottom of my list of Tull albums. There were a couple of songs that I liked ("Crazed Institution," "Salamander"), but overall it was not for me. Until now! The remixes on this new boxed set... Wow! Perhaps it was a poor mix that sabotaged this collection all those years ago, but I am finding myself really enjoying the remixes done by Mister Wilson. The songs, instruments, and (most dramatically) the VOCALS have a vitality that I never experienced in these songs before. It's a wonderful surprise, and a new lease on life for this album (Still don't like "Bad Eyed and Loveless," though!). It makes me wonder what a remix of "Homo Erraticus" would do for me... -David

I can't stand the stereo mix after listening in 5.1. www.quadraphonicquad.com/forums/showthread.php?19015-Ian-Anderson-Homo-Erraticus-%28DTS-DVD%29&highlight=Homo+Erraticus
