Aqualung
30 05 2019I just read Allan Moore’s in depth book for Bloomsbury’s 33 and 1/3 imprint. Quite amazing, at the depth which he deciphers the lyrics, and relates them to Barre’s and Anderson’s playing. For that level of intention to be present during each session makes the album process equivalent to the Sistine Chapel.
Though I am of course familiar with Aqualung, and Tull, Moore has provided a new dimension to listening to their music, and now I am keen to return to some of my favorites with a new ear. Skating Away on the Thin Ice of a New Day, Christmas Song, The Witch’s Promise, all will have a new dimension added.
Though I haven’t utilized the blog in some time, I plan to continue to write here in the spirit with which I began the blog.
