  Aqualung - The Official Jethro Tull Website
"Aqualung" has a dominant theme but is certainly more, much more, than a concept album hindging on a solitary subject.
"Aqualung" also cemented the exaggerated image, especially to those only casually acquainted with the band, that Tull was a "heavy rock" group.
Anderson did not know that "Aqualung" was a trademark and not a generic phrase (the issue was settled quite amicably).

 Ground and Sky review - Jethro Tull - Aqualung
As for the album's concept, pointing out in "Wind-up" that "He's not the kind of God you have to wind up on Sundays" shouldn't be too controversial.
Aqualung is one of those albums (see: Led Zeppelin IV, Dark Side of the Moon, Who's Next) that you could know nearly all of by heart if you've ever spent long periods of time listening to classic rock radio.
The album wasn't particularly well-recorded to begin with, but because the master tapes have reportedly been in irrevocably deteriorated condition for many years, no amount of "remastering" will ever significantly improve the sound.

 Jethro Tull   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Jethro Tull's fifth album Thick as a Brick was released in the Spring of 1972.
Genesis unleashed its fourth album Foxtrot and Pink Floyd had released Obscured by Clouds and were creating and putting the finishing touches on their masterpiece The Dark Side of the Moon which would not come out until March of 1973.
Many would consider Tull's next release "Aqualung" to be their masterpiece but "Benefit" should not be overlooked as it is an essential piece of Jethro Tull history and stands up very well on its own merits.

But it was guitarist Martin Barre's swaggering riff off the title track of the band's fourth album that would become Tull's indelibly clichéd trademark--and the band's entrée into a long reign as arena-rock perennials.
Jethro Tull's fourth album Aqualung was released in April of 1971.
The album was a combination of heavy rock music focusing on themes such as social outcasts and organized religion, and some lighter acoustic fare about the mundanity of everyday life.
