• “Aqualung” is considered by many to be Tull’s masterpiece. The title track and “Locomotive Breath,” with their catchy riffs, along with “My God,” “Cross-Eyed Mary” and “Hymn 43” will rank among the classics of rock history. There’s no arguing about the commercial success, as the album sold more than seven million copies and continues to outsell all other tracks in the back catalogue.

  Still, “Aqualung” is probably Tull’s most misunderstood album. Critics labeled it a concept album, largely because of Anderson’s critical, skeptical views on organized religion, especially on Side B (“My God”). Anderson disputed this assessment, almost resenting it, seeing the record as “just a bunch of songs.” The labeling prompted the band to truly deliver a concept album to critics with the following studio release, Thick as a Brick.
