I find it rather egregious that you would skip Jethro Tull's sophomore release Stand Up. Therefore, in protest I shall abstain from voting.

Of these, I vote for Days of Future Passed. Where is the poll where I get to vote for In The Wake Of Poseidon?

I made a series of polls on rateyourmusic.com of sophomore albums and I picked the ones that received at least two votes and put them in the final round. This is the final round. Jethro Tull did not get two votes and therefore is not in this poll but I did include them in the first round. The same thing with King Crimson.
