Um, the 1CD release was a sampling of the Tull 3CD boxed set and not
"just the new stuff".  Most of the 3CD set was new stuff (at least in
that form; eg, live) and just some of the pieces that Ian Anderson
really likes (mostly acoustical stuff) was included directly from
other albums.  One of the best boxed set releases in terms of new
material, IMHO.  The 1CD (2LP) release is an ok sampling but is
missing some of the best stuff off the boxed set.

Now back to your regularly scheduled program....  ;-)
