Title: This Still Is
Review: Aqualung overshadows the early Tull catalogue, and that's too bad because this first album is head and shoulders above a lot of the contemporary competition. The musicianship really shines, and although the obligatory drum solo from "Dharma For One" is tedious, it speaks to its time. Many of these are blues riffs, and that's why the album stands up over time. The CD is remastered and the sound is sparkling, a nice glimpse backward in time. Worth picking up if you never knew the early Tull oeuvre.
