Eager to make his debut solo album distinctly diverse from the music he had recorded with Cream, it featured music which stylistically drew on jazz, folk, classical and rock influences.Joining Jack and producer Felix Pappalardi for the recording sessions at Londons Morgan Studios were some of Britains best musicians such as Chris Spedding, Jon Hiseman, Dick HeckstallSmith, John Marshall, Art Themen and Henry Lowther. One session was also notable for the presence of George Harrison. Songs For A Tailor was a chart success in both the UK and the USA and is now rightly regarded as a masterpiece and one of Jacks seminal works.This boxed set edition features the original 1969 album mix newly remastered from the original master tapes, along with wonderful new stereo and 5.1 Surround sound mixes of the album by Stephen W Tayler from the original 8track master tapes and previously unreleased session outtakes and demos. The set also includes the marvellous 1970 documentary Rope Ladder to the Moon on Blu Ray video for the first time. Originally screened by the BBC, this film features live performances and an insight into Jacks heritage, life and influences.DISC ONE Songs for a Tailor The original mix remastered1 Never Tell Your Mother Shes Out of Tune2 Theme for an Imaginary Western3 Tickets to Waterfalls4 Weird of Hermiston5 Rope Ladder to the Moon6 The Ministry of Bag7 He the Richmond8 Boston Ball Game 19679 To Isengard10 The ClearoutBonus tracks11 Ministry of Bag demo12 Weird of Hermiston alternate mix13 The Clearout alternate mix14 Ministry of Bag alternate mixDISC TWO Songs for a Tailor The new stereo mix1 Never Tell Your Mother Shes Out of Tune2 Theme for an Imaginary Western3 Tickets to Waterfalls4 Weird of Hermiston5 Rope Ladder to the Moon6 The Ministry of Bag7 He the Richmond8 Boston Ball Game 19679 To Isengard10 The ClearoutBonus tracks11 Rope Ladder to the Moon first demo12 Never Tell Your Mother Shes Out of Tune first attempt13 Vikings To Isengard first attempt14 Rope Ladder to the Moon second attempt15 You Burned the Tables on Me instrumental demo16 Escape to the Royal Wood On Ice instrumental demoDISC THREE BLU RAY Songs for a Tailor 96 kHz 24bit new 5.1 Surround Sound amp stereo mixes by Stephen W Tayler amp remastered original stereo mix1 Never Tell Your Mother Shes Out of Tune2 Theme for an Imaginary Western3 Tickets to Waterfalls4 Weird of Hermiston5 Rope Ladder to the Moon6 The Ministry of Bag7 He the Richmond8 Boston Ball Game 19679 To Isengard10 The ClearoutBonus tracks11 Rope Ladder to the Moon first demo12 Never Tell Your Mother Shes Out of Tune first attempt13 Vikings To Isengard first attempt14 Rope Ladder to the Moon second attempt15 You Burned the Tables on Me instrumental demo16 Escape to the Royal Wood On Ice instrumental demoDISC FOUR BLU RAY Rope Ladder to the Moon The 1970 documentary film1 Rope Ladder to the MoonNEW OFFICIAL GATEFOLD LP VINYL RELEASE OF THIS CLASSIC ALBUM BY JACK BRUCE.REMASTERED FROM THE ORIGINAL MASTER TAPES AND CUT AT ABBEY ROAD STUDIOS.FULLY RESTORED ARTWORK.This official gatefold LP vinyl edition fully restores the original LP artwork, has been remastered from the original master tapes and has been cut at Abbey Road studios.SIDE ONE1 Never Tell Your Mother Shes Out of Tune2 Theme for an Imaginary Western3 Tickets to Waterfalls4 Weird of Hermiston5 Rope Ladder to the MoonSIDE TWO1 The Ministry of Bag2 He the Richmond3 Boston Ball Game 19674 To Isengard5 The ClearoutOfficial Jack Bruce Merchandise.Choice of colour as well as size above.
