Reelin’ in the Years 195: Wond’ring Aloud (and Wond’ring Again)

One of the more understated tracks on Jethro Tull’s 1971 LP Aqualung was this acoustic ditty, Wond’ring Aloud.

On the compilation album Living in the Past, was a reworking/extension, Wond’ring Again, which may be Ian Anderson’s masterpiece. A meditation on humanity’s propensity to mess things – especially the planet – up. From forty years ago!
It’s also a perfect example of Anderson’s lyricism, moving from the poetic to the mundane within a sentence.
