Jethro Tulls multi-platinum-selling smash on Hybrid Stereo SACD!
Remastered by Chris Bellman from the original master tapes
Analogue Productions presents another classic title on Hybrid Stereo SACD Jethro Tulls multi-platinum-selling smash Aqualung. Originally released in March 1971, the album has sold in excess of 7 million copies worldwide, achieving Top Ten chart status in both the U.K. and U.S.. Aqualungs success signalled a turning point in the bands career, making Jethro Tull a major radio and touring act.
Recorded at Island Records studio in London, it was their first album with John Evan as a full-time member, their first with new bassist Jeffrey Hammond, and last album featuring Clive Bunker on drums. Aqualung is regarded, despite the bands disagreement, as a concept album featuring a central theme of the distinction between religion and God. Something of a departure from the bands previous work, the album features more acoustic material than previous releases; and-inspired by photographs of homeless people on the Thames Embankment taken by singer Ian Andersons wife Jennie-contains a number of recurring themes, addressing religion along with Andersons own personal experiences.
