Reviews4 stars out of 5 -- "AQUALUNG was where Tull's then-daring mix of hard rock and folk melodies reached its apotheosis.", 4 Stars Out of 5-"...They Were the Most Frazzled British Art Rockers of Their Day...", 4 Stars Out of 5 -- "Quintessential Hard Rockin' Bucolic Grot.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "Even the mere stereo mix...is a work of immense subtlety which nevertheless lends a newfound clarity and immediacy to beloved old riffers...", "...Demonstrates a new maturity in Ian Anderson's songwriting as he draws together disparate folk, jazz and heavy metal influences. The tramp on the cover quickly became the Tull persona in the public mind...", 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...occupies a special place in the idiosyncratic Tull pantheon. Many of its key songs have been lionised in live sets....The smaller stuff stands up well too..."
For lovers of bohemian rhapsody Aqualung is testament of great song writers and lyricists that abound. If you don't know about Jethro Tull i would recommend start with Aqualung.
