Under Wraps is the name of an album by the band Jethro Tull, released in 1984. The original 1984 release had 11 tracks, with "Astronomy," "Tundra," "Automotive Engineering," and "General Crossing" appearing as B-sides and bonus tracks. Now the standard release carries all 15 tracks, and the 2005 enhanced CD also contains a QuickTime video for "Lap Of Luxury". Although controversial amongst Tull fans due to its 1980's electronic/synth-pop sound, Martin Barre has cited Under Wraps as his favourite Tull album.
The album was recorded in the spring of 1984 in Ian's home studio.
