Stand Up is the second album by Jethro Tull. Prior to this album, the band's original guitarist Mick Abrahams had left the band due to musical differences with Ian Anderson. Abrahams wanted to stay with the blues-rock sound of This Was, while Anderson wished to branch out into other musical forms and Stand Up represents the first album on which Anderson was in full control of the music and lyrics.
The album goes in a different direction from his earlier work, revealing influences from Celtic music, folk and classical music. The instrumental "Bourée" (one of Jethro Tull's better-known songs) is a re-working of "Bourrée in E minor" by J.S.Bach. The gatefold album cover, in a woodcut style designed by artist James Grashow, originally opened up similar to a child's pop-up book, so that a cut-out of the band's personnel stood up — a pun on the album's title. Stand Up won New Musical Express's award for best album artwork in 1969

Clean, unmarked labels - just a couple of spindle traces - seen little use
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT+
Both surfaces shine like new with nothing but a few harmless light marks
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
Plays beautifully throughout with nothing to fault the deep, rich and heavy sound
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT+
Superb example - the internal pop-up is perfect and all text on the wide spine is clear and bold - some light discolouration to the white back - nothing major
