Certainly showing its age, in my day was revolutionary, but now kind of tame. I revisited this album, after many years, to hear Ian Anderson's flute playing - he plays it like no other, giving it a trademark throaty sound. That style is so unmistakably Anderson's, nothing short of thrilling, and leaves me wanting to hear more. However, his album of just flute music is disappointing. His sound is much better in a rock and roll setting rather than on its own. Still Aqualung, Locomotive Breath and Bouree (a good flute song) are worth listening to again and again.
