Jethro Tull...any cd's to stay away from?

I recently realized that while I have several lp's I don't have any cd's by Tull. Really like the early stuff. The difference between some originals and remastered material has also been a recent revelation to me and not looking to waste any $$ on cd's I'll not play more than once what and where would you look? What about the quality of the dvd concerts?

The new (2011) issue of Aqualung is stunning. The bonus tracks are worthy of purchase alone but the real revelation is the remastered original album. It is about the best modern remaster of any album I have heard, and that includes many from the well known gold CD labels.

The DVDs are poor in terms of presentation. You get a live track then some chat, then a live track and so on, which was not what I either expected or wanted.
The earlier CD issues were a real hotch-potch of audio quality, none of them being very good. Even the later album "Roots to Branches" was a complete sonic mess, with some tracks mixed well and some wading through mud.
