Condition Report: Near Fine. This copy is securely bound in crisp, glossy boards that remain bright and entirely free of any significant rubbing or edge-wear. The binding is remarkably tight, supporting a clean, unblemished text block. Internally, the pages are pristine and bright, devoid of foxing, creases, or handling marks. The elaborate central pop-up mechanism remains fully intact, functioning flawlessly without any tears or structural weakness. The accompanying two CDs and single DVD, housed securely in their respective sleeves, appear clean and meticulously maintained, rounding out a highly presentable and well-preserved example.

Catalogue Note: This is the celebrated 'Elevated Edition' of Jethro Tull's sophomore 1969 album, reissued as an expansive 112-page hardback book-set. The release is notable for featuring comprehensive stereo and 5.1 surround sound remixes by acclaimed producer Steven Wilson, alongside a wealth of rare bonus tracks and live recordings from the band's January 1969 Stockholm concert.

A particular highlight of this edition is the central pop-up artwork of the band, brilliantly reproducing James Grashow’s iconic gatefold design from the original 1969 vinyl release. The extensive accompanying text features detailed annotations, a track-by-track breakdown by Ian Anderson, and a tribute to the late Glenn Cornick.

While highly sought-after by progressive rock enthusiasts and completists, recent represses have ensured that this special edition remains accessible on the open market, making it an essential, yet attainable, cornerstone for collectors.

A cornerstone of the progressive rock movement, Jethro Tull's Stand Up marked a pivotal evolution in the band's sound, blending blues rock with eclectic folk and classical influences. This definitive 'Elevated Edition' breathes new life into the 1969 classic through meticulous Steven Wilson remixes and a treasure trove of previously unreleased live and studio material. Encased in a lavishly illustrated book that faithfully revives the original pop-up gatefold art, it offers a deeply immersive journey into the creative zenith of one of Britain's most distinctive bands

Book Condition Guide

We stock thousands of books in a wide range of conditions. To make things clear and to help you know exactly what to expect, Please refer to these condition categories to understand the condition of the book you will receive.

Condition	Description
New	A brand-new, unread and professionally handled book. Carefully preserved from publication to purchase, these books are offered in the best attainable condition. This grade applies to recently published titles that have not entered long-term storage.
As New	The book is in pristine, original condition as if just published. No signs of use or handling. The dust jacket (if present) is equally flawless. This grade applies to any book that has remained untouched in storage for years.
Fine	The book is close to As New. It remains bright and attractive, but could show minor imperfections to the boards and/or dust jacket (if present). Its pages are typically clean and unmarked.
Near Fine	The book has a number of small flaws, i.e. slight rubbing to the edges, or tiny chips or creases to the dust jacket (if present). Its pages may have faint marks, or creases that are barely perceptible — nothing that detracts from their overall condition.
Very Good	The book maintains its structural integrity, and has no major flaws such as tears to its binding or pages. It may, however, show signs of careful use, handling, or storage — small marks and creases, light foxing. Its dust jacket (if present) remains fully intact, but small tears may be present.
Good	A book that remains intact and readable with complete text pages, but shows moderate signs of wear and use to both the book and dust jacket (if present). It may have noticeable creases, nicks, or stains, and the spine likely shows fading, bumping, and rubbing. There could be writing, underlining, and other marks on some pages, though the majority will be clean and tidy.
Fair	A book with significant wear or damage. The text pages will be complete, but there may be heavy underlining, highlighting and staining throughout, and the book’s endpapers, half-title, and copyright pages could be damaged or missing. The binding could be loose, and the dust jacket (if present) may have notable scuffs or tears. These copies are usually of interest for content, signature(s) or scarcity.
Poor	A heavily worn book whose value lies in its complete and legible text. A poor book will have substantial defects — loose joints or hinges, detached covers, loose and/or missing pages, and could be heavily soiled. A poor book is also known as a reading copy, and although compromised, can hold historical or bibliographic significance.
