I sat on the fence when Thick as a Brick was up against Close to the Edge on an earlier poll and couldn't vote - probably leaning towards Thick as a Brick at present.

1. Thick as a Brick
2. Benefit
3. Minstrel in the Gallery

with so many albums I thought multiple votes were allowed. 

Anyway, voted for Stand Up. :)

TAAB, something popular for once.
For second spot it's tied between CttE, Relayer, Heavy Horses and APP. Next GftO and Stormwatch.

No way! Can't vote. Too many favorites that fit different moods.

Stand Up and A Passion Play are tied for the first spot but I went for the former. Next is probably The Yes Album.

Tales > A Passion Play > The Yes Album > Fragile > Close to the Edge > Relayer
Two random guys agreed to shake hands. Just Because. They felt like it, you know. It was an agreement of sorts...a random agreement.

Some were surprised that Tull was ahead of Yes

just for fun

here are my top 10  YesTull albums

1. TaaB
2. Fragile
3. Aqualung
4. CttE
5. Yes Album

those first 5 are stone cold masterpieces to me
the next  could actually go in any order

Stand Up
Benefit
Minstrel in the Gallery
Heavy Horses
Songs from the Wood

then probably  Relayer




This is actually really interesting. Maybe too many choices, but it'll be interesting to see what people pick.

I voted for Aqualung. :)

Tull are the best band of the best era. If you don't like some of the album tracks then just go to some of the gems that missed out Smile
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.

Tough choice, was between Stormwatch and Relayer for me. Went with Relayer but my vote is really interchangeable between those two.
