Whatever wasn't on the album(soundtrack). Strip cartoon, Commercial traveller, Small cigar(full version), Salamander ragtime. These songs instantly sound like tull. Better compositions and vocals, more grunt, busier, catchier. More like actual prog. We probably would have had One brown mouse and a completed Advertising man on it too plus more. Maybe the guitar/drum medley and Beethovens 9th from Tampa would have been recorded in the studio too. But they ran out of time. The plan was to do a usual tull album and also a soundtrack in 74 and 76. But Ian was too caught up in the idea about making a movie and soundtrack in 74 and a play and soundtrack in 76. He composed and sang differently to how he would naturally. At least we have the full amount of songs from 74 for both albums and a few songs for the musical and about half the songs for the additional 76 album.

All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

Hi all

(I know I musn't have much of a life!). I have endeavoured to put together every official released track ...I probably have missed a few. Here they are here: http://www.ranker.com/list/best-jethro-tull-songs/voteable?format=GRID&page=1&action=tab&type=list Get to it and tell your friends to join in. Also you can rank all Tull studio albums here: http://www.ranker.com/list/best-jethro-tull-albums-list/reference I have spent the last few weeks on this site.....It does get you in. Oh a few votes for Martin Barre on the Greatest guitarists of all time list wouldn't go astray! He's sitting on #154....C'mon!!!! If you can be bothered! http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-greatest-guitarists-of-all-time The TOTRNRTYTD Theatre Edition arrived here in OZ for me 2 days ago. i haven't listened to it yet.

Here's my new programmed track list. Sounds miles better. The real Tull is back. Ian's voice, martins guitar and Tulls compositions. With these 4 new songs this could rival sftw and horses. Out with the 4 daggy soundtrack songs and in with the Tull songs with the taab/app feel
Strip cartoon From a deadbeat Salamanders ragtime Pied piper Commercial traveller Salamander Big Dipper Small cigar(orchestral) Quiz kid Chequered flag |

^ Very nice your set list, man! It really works!

Yeah Maddy Prior. Yeah that setlist is awesome. The album goes from mediocre to great after those alterations to the track list. The songs I brought in have that taab/app feel. I just ignore bad eyed, too old etc. as Ian trying to be different. It's not really tull. Amazing they could really produce a classic prog related album pretty much every year of the 70s if they felt like it lol. How about warchild? Would you make it a single or double album? I'd add a couple of orchestra tracks on the double and bugger off bungle and two fingers.

I am currently purchasing the entire Tull discography on vinyl. I have always been a big fan but have lately been re-listening to records that I didn't much care for when I was 16 (Broadsword, A, Rock Island) and whereas they are by no means masterpieces, they all really have a lot to offer. Far more than I remembered. Still have a tough time wrapping my head around Under Wraps, though.

U got any of the remixes? There are double the amount of great tracks compared to original albums. Sound quality is awesome. Ignoring compilations such as LITP, the run of 14 albums released from 68-82 in their original track list format only really tells half the story. There are 22 albums worth of studio tracks in this period and that's not including multiple versions of any single track. The best thing about this is that if I had to pick the 20 weakest tracks from this 15 year period, most of them would be original album tracks. So the remixes give us 8 extra albums worth of mainly great Tull Edited by dr prog - August 30 2016 at 14:40 |

I don't as of yet...but I look forward to getting them. So far I just have the original releases plus the Tropo bootleg Nowhere Fast. There is such an extensive catalog that I can certainly see that I have my work (and my wallet) cut out for me.

You won't regret lol. Warchild has about 3 albums worth and Aqualing and Passion have 2 albums worth and most of the others an extra half album. The most notable ones are the 2 soundtracks Warchild and Too old. We almost get the 2 Tull albums I kind of expected from Tull on the remixes in addition to the 2 original soundtracks Edited by dr prog - August 30 2016 at 15:18 |

I just saw the Ian Anderson Rock opera about Jethro Tull the inventor. Great show Ian Still has it.

Jethro Tull will Always have my love.
The only albums I have not so much love for are the debut, 'A' and Under Wraps. I love everything else. I also love all Ian Anderson-solo albums and the Martin Barre-albums. I think my favourite albums are: 1. Thick as a Brick 2. Benefit 3. Minstrel in the Gallery 4. Aqualung 5. Crest of a Knave My favorite Ian-album is Secret Language of Birds, wich is a masterpiece.

ok I get it with A and Under Wraps, but what's wrong with the debut? I think it's great.

It's not hate, it's just not love. It's more Mick Abrahams-bluesrock, and not yet Ian Anderson prog/folk/rock.
I'm not too fond of bluesrock in general. |

I know it is not prog, but I like This Was a lot, especially Serenade To a Cuckoo, and Beggars Farm, and the box set cuts of To Be Sad is a Mad Way To Be, and One For John Gee
