Though the actual Age of Aquarius has long since come and gone, this album will remind you of some of the great sounds of that era.
Aside from that, I must say that overall, "The Age of Aquarius" is a great pop-soul album and it shows just how talented The Fifth Dimension were.
This, the 5D's fourth album, is probably their most popular offering due to the success of the title track as well as the singles "Blowing Away", "Working On A Groovy Thing" and the Laura Nyro classic "Wedding Bell Blues", and probably is one of their best, but not their BEST.
