Agree on all points noted.
Should a Mo-Fi Tull/Aqualung make itself availble to me, I'll likely snag it. Although I suspect that this one will command a significant fee in today's market.
I was happy to get the two Classic Records remasters. Those are better listens in comparison to original pressings. I do recall in several different online discussions re: Aqualung sonics it always comes up that the album just happens to be bass shy.

Follow Ups:
Have the bought new when it was Current album.
Sounds OK ..Not great, but hardly awful either.. Decent bass by the way.
WHAT? are you playing/listening to it thru?

See my system description. Or see link to my system page at The Analog Dept. Thanks for asking. Btw. I've enough bass in the current system for the room I'm in. It can pressurize the space.

Dunno what to say?
My Thorens runs thru my F6 amp to my Tannoys.
NO issues whatsoever.
No standoffs for My speaker wires tho :-)

There has been so much discussion in this very issue in the past that I really feel no need to defend my position against yours. The general consensus is nearly 100% against your impression.
Search the vinyl/asylum using the key words: Aqualung bass
That said, I've no doubt that your Tannoys do produce lots of bass. Differences in all the various systems we use will result in different impressions. But I think you're off the mark on this one.

I feel it's silly to divert the discussion in the direction of 'what system are you listening on?' Obviously, all of us complaining that Aqualung is shy on bass are not complaining about any other album in our collection being shy in the bass section. Meaning, we are completely satisfied with the way our system pressurizes the room with bass tones. So why would Aqualung all of a sudden be traceable to an issue with our systems?
