JETHRO TULL are musical giants with a unique sound - or rather sounds that have remained singular in the canon of rock music. Founded in Blackpool, Lancashire, in 1967 by the Scotsman Ian Anderson, the band has undergone several stylistic shifts and changes of image during their still ongoing career of many decades. Yet largely due to the characteristic voice of their frontman and the inclusion of a flute as an essential instrument, JETHRO TULL have always had an inimitable and easily recognisable trademark sonic fingerprint. "Aqualung Redux" presents new takes on all eleven tracks from JETHRO TULL's best-selling 1971 album that has by now sold more than 7 million copies worldwide. "Aqualung" achieved their breakthrough as a rock band on radio and tv shows, and on tour. The lyrics of "Aqualung" primarily revolve around religion and faith but also tackle other subjects such as homelessness. Although it is often described as a concept album, "Aqualung" was never intended as such according to mastermind Ian Anderson. While the band continued to use elements of blues, hard rock, and psychedelia, it also added more folk style acoustic moments. The single track 'Locomotive Breath', taken from "Aqualung", is probably the best known and most covered tune of JETHRO TULL. Along with "Aqualung Redux", we also present our "Best of Jethro Tull Redux" companion album, which offers more classics and deep cuts from across the rest of the British rock legends' extensive and unique catalogue. The Magnetic Eye Redux Series features hand-picked classic albums from across the history of rock and metal re-imagined in their entirety from start to finish. Artists we love from within and outside the heavy rock landscape choose tracks to make their own, bringing these milestone records into the new millennium with crushing heaviness and searing energy. To date, we've produced Redux editions of PINK FLOYD's "The Wall", HELMET's "Meantime", BLACK SABBATH's "Vol. 4", HENDRIX's "Electric Ladyland", ALICE IN CHAINS' "Dirt", AC/DC's "Back in Black", and SOUNDGARDEN's "Superunknown" which have included artists like RED FANG, MATT PIKE, PALLBEARER, THE MELVINS, ALL THEM WITCHES, KHEMMIS, ASG, SUPERSUCKERS, ZAKK WYLDE, MARK LANEGAN, RUBY THE HATCHET, and many other amazing artists. Join us for our eighth foray into Redux territory as we pay proper respect to the singular British rock innovators JETHRO TULL!
