Edited sentence: Also it is the first release of Tull NOT on their flagship Chrysalis Records, which really is a rather good stroke by Anderson in retrospect, as CD sales are changing in form, and on the smaller label, Tull retains (hopefully) more control.And while it seems every Tull CD contains some stuff that just doesn't quite work (here's it's the rather pointless "Hot Mango Flush" and its sister reprise "Mango Surprise"), it doesn't seem to matter, as frontman/flautist/Svengali type Ian Anderson's likes and dislikes are always entertainingly purveyed, even in pieces that conceptually are quite dated.As most fans will admit, Tull has a few clunkers here and there; this one will not be remembered as such.DOT-COM is really quite a good CD of Tull's and while it may not move heavy hitters like 'Minstrel in the Gallery' and 'Heavy Horses' out of anyone's top 5 favorites, or doesn't even have the 'classic' potential of 95s 'Roots to Branches,' it could very well be seen as better than some of their more contrived work of the early 80s.Firstly, it is their last lp of the 20th Century.Having long-standing guitarist Martin Barre's muscle up front with Ian's ever-strong flauting is always good policy for the group.J TULL DOT COM carries a number of distinctions for Jethro Tull.Secondly, it is their 20th studio album (excluding Living in the Past, 1972, as this was a compilation).This CD also carried the distinction of being the first CD that current (2005) bass player Johnathan Noyce plays on.While the title of the CD is lamentable (as well as the somewhat dreadful cover art of a sketchy Pan like creature, kneeling with genitalia adangle, neatly removed for US release) as a rather poor attempt at summoning hits on their website, this CD has aged quite well as a formidable and listenable addition to Tull's discography.With such riffy rockers as "Hunt by Numbers" and "Spiral" as well as nicer, more compositional pieces as "Bends like a Willow" and "Wicked Windows," this CD does stand the test of repeated listening
