Product Description
From Amazon.com
The cyber-centric title of Jethro Tull's 25th collection of new music is cause for pause. Ye olde art-rock band dropping au courant lingo into their songs from the wood? Ian Anderson intoning with characteristic gravity: "Punch my name and in case you wonder / I'll be yours / Yours dot com"? Hmmm. What would that poor old sod Aqualung think? Get past the notion that these fixtures of prog-rock have hit upon the dubious notion of using an album title as a billboard for their Web site, however, and you've got a collection that will leave Tull true believers contented. The group's inimitable hard rock and otherworldly folk brew makes no less--or more--sense now than it did when the group emerged with such unlikely hits as the aforementioned Aqualung and 1972's Thick as a Brick, which consisted of one 43-minute song spread over two sides of a record. If they could pull that off, these durable graybeards can find love on the Internet. --Steven Stolder

Great Album, but can someone help me,
By A Customer
This review is from: J-Tull Dot Com (Audio CD)
It is a great album....5 stars doesn't do it any justice but there are only five from which to chose. I highly recommend it to everyone that has a good ear for music, and can appreciate good music produced by great musicians. But it would be very helpful if someon at Amazon could include the date the original recording was made along with the date that the CD was made. I am trying to get a list of the different albums and their date of release but seem to be hitting a brick wall here.

It's been done,
By Craig (Cypress, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: J-Tull Dot Com (Audio CD)
Not much new here, a lot of flute playing and a lot of interesting music. The problem is, is that it's nothing new and therefore is not that interesting. You can pretty much buy any latter day Tull cd and get the same feel. If you like that about the band, then by all means, get this cd. Frankly, I expect more from such a talented band.

Still Strong after 4 Decades,
By Graboidz (Westminster, Maryland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: J-Tull Dot Com (Audio CD)
Buy this record!!! If you are a fan of any era of Jethro Tull you have to hear Dot Com! It is amazing what Ian Anderson and crew are still able to come up with after 4 decades of song writing. If you like the harder edge of Tull you can't go wrong with Spiral, and El Nino. If you liked the older Tull, Songs From the Woods era, you will enjoy Gift of Roses, and Black Mamba. If you liked Crest of Knave, you will find Hunt by Numbers and AWOL to you liking. Almost every song features what is best about Jethro Tull. The musicanship is fantastic. Martin Barre really shines here, and Ian Anderson's flute work is great! I really enjoy the quirky song Hot Mango Flesh. It's almost like Jethro Tull featuring lyrics by Captain Beefheart. Also, there is a bonus track hidden on the album. A tune from Ian Anderson's forthcoming solo album that is really good, called the Secret Language of Birds. The is the best Tull disk in years, again.....BUY THIS RECORD!!!!
