40th Anniversary Edition revives the original!
Been a Tull fan for ages, but somehow when Broadsword came out in 1982, I just didn't care that much for it. I have ten other anniversary editions and have enjoyed them all (particularly the 5.1 audio), so when this went on sale, I figured I would give it a spin. WOW! I am amazed at how good it sounds and how good the music is. I didn't listen to this for years but it is a really great album! The remastered album sounds fantastic in 5.1, but the "associated recordings" and demos really make this a special set. There is clearly enough material here for a second album. I haven't played the live material yet, but even if it was not included in this set, I would be happy to have it. Yes, the packaging of the discs themselves is horrendous, so I just put the 5 studio discs in a DVD case (see photo) for easy access and so I don't mangle them - problem solved!

Spectacular Audio Realism. Package is a Truckload of Cherries on Top
The audio quality is practically worth the price in and of itself - at least for fans of this music. Clear, rich, and precise. AFter 40 years, we can finally listen to the genius of Anderson and company without whatever audio restrictions kept the original from sounding even remotely as good as it could have. I know it's cliche, but listening to this Steven Wilson remix is like hearing these songs for the very first time, and IT IS GOOD. I haven't even seen or heard the other discs or digested what's on the beautiful glossy pages yet, but am comfortable giving it 5 stars already. (One reviewer took a star off for the difficult disc removal from the package - and it does suck (I almost broke a disc) - but the content is too precious and well-made to penalize it for something irrelevant by comparison). I had the vinyl for years, and when I finally got the CD some years later, I was disappointed that it didn't sound as amazing as, well, this version. Mr. Wilson is truly a talented man, and his work on remaking the audio quality in these Jethro Tull packages is little short of genius. More to come once I go thru all the content, which, like Tull concerts, is a bargain for what you pay.

The most Broadsword you could ask for!
I picked this up recently while it was on sale. This is my favorite Jethro Tull album, and was amazed at the amount of music and information in this set. Please note the included DVDs are audio only. The remastered original album sounds wonderful through my 2 channel amp and Bose 301s. The live material gives you all but 2 tracks from Broadsword (I already put together a live Broadsword play list). Plenty of extra tracks, studio and live. The included book is packed with info including lyrics, album development and touring memories. If you've read this far, you must be contemplating purchasing this set. While I didn't jump on it when first launched, I'm glad I grabbed it when it was on sale.

Awesome So Far!
I saw some of the negative reviews of this latest JT box set; primarily regarding the price. Having all of these sets in my collection, I was initially questioning the higher price of this one. But with eight discs and a very lengthy book, it’s certainly understandable. I received it on 1 September and started listening to today. In fact, I have the first CD on the stereo now. The sound quality is amazing for an early 80’s recording and I forgot just how good this JT album is since I haven’t heard it for a long time. For now, I rate it five stars based on what I hear this far. If any part of it is not worthy to have been included in this set, I’ll revise my review. It’s yet another outstanding release in the JT catalog and I’m looking forward to the rest; especially Crest of a Knave!!!

Great content; terrible packaging
These Jethro Tull 40th anniversary box sets that have been coming out with (usually) remixes by Steven Wilson are phenomenally good. For Tull fans, they are holy grails, and they end up being collectors items because they're limited editions. This newest one, "The Broadsword & the Beast," the Tull album from 1982, is just as good and it happens to be the largest set so far (5 CDs, 3 DVDs) with an abundance of previously unreleased tracks, all recorded 1981-1982. For me, "Broadsword" is likely my favorite Tull album from the 1980s. The original album had ten wonderful songs--the WRITING is some of Ian Anderson's best. So... the content contained in this box is definitely 5 stars. The booklet also keeps up the high standards of the previous releases. BUT... the disk packaging is absolutely terrible. The way six of the disks on either side of the box are contained in the plastic "jewel case" (not!) makes it near impossible to get the disks out easily without either snapping the little plastic "levers" that hold them, or (worse) scratching the disks. It's also just as difficult to get the disks back in. There is much discussion on the Jethro Tull fan pages on Facebook about this. Everyone is complaining about it. What's the good of a great box set if the disks are dangerously difficult to remove or replace? And who wants to store the disks away from the box they came in? Shelf space at home is at a premium as it is. So one star deducted for this lamebrain design of the disk holders. Should have been two stars deducted, but that would have hurt the overall excellence of this STILL worthwhile addition to the Tull collection.

Great Box Set - Easy Fix for Packaging/CD holder
Great box set including live in Germany 1982. There is an easy fix for the poorly constructed CD holders front and back inside covers: The springy clips at the bottom provide so much pressure that the discs won't even sit flat - they bend, and are difficult to remove, and may permanently warp if left as is. The discs must be pushed down from the top edge toward the clips and then they can clear the retaining tabs at the top. The ones seated flat against the back of the covers sit flat and need no modification. First, remove the two topmost discs in each section Then simply break off the springy clip on one side (I broke off the ones on the left) There is plenty of tension provided by the remaining clip and now all the discs now sit nice and flat!! They are also much easier to remove.

Quit complaining about the price the set as well worth it
Yes the price is a bit more expensive than other sets have been. I also agree that some of the material on these disc is kind of useless to me I don’t need rehearsal tracks and things like that. I do love most of the bonus tracks some of them are very good but the big thing about this set that makes it worth the money is the surroundsound mix it is amazing one of the best of any sets so far. My only complaint is with the packaging it up how you have to snap the CDs into place
