Probably his most significant albums. I would have loved more personally but he has played in some amazing bands . Zappa, Tull , Roxy and Curved Air. Quite a career if not high on output.
Choose one.

Voting for Curved Air - Air Cut being a super-favourite of mine for the last 30 years.
His work with Zappa, Roxy, U.K. and Tull is impeccable. I didn’t think much of his solo albums, though I kept The Green Album.

First vote for Danger Money.

If we had multiple options, The Green Album and A would both go in.

And hey, I've enjoyed Theme of Secrets off and on since its release.

I'm not sure what made UK by UK such a great album but I suspect Eddie Jobson had a lot to do with it , there for UK gets my vote .. I simply love that album. After all these years I've never got sick of it, I don't play it all the time but when I`m in the mood it really hits the spot Tongue

Curved Air - not necessarily based on Eddie Jobson's work, but because I like it most out of these.

Danger Money. When Allan Holdsworth left the band, Jobson had more room to really show his chops.

I voted for his work with Zappa - at the time it was to be mainly found on 'Live in New York'.  Jobson is one musician that has eluded me live.

Nigh After Night - U.K. Live is a fantastic album. I’ve often wished it were a double album.

Air Cut only because of the song "Metamorphosis" which displayed his keyboard skills in such a way that I wish he could have stayed with that group, or in that style, for longer

yes, I need to re-listen but I remember Armin was a good one
but man Metamorphosis doesn't get enough love as it should.  IMO one of the signature epics of the prog rock era

Couldn’t agree more ! And wasn’t Eddie still in his teens on this one ?
