According to PA's ratings these albums and eras are Jethro Tull's best. Which one do you like best??

Thick As A Brick. None of the other ones come close.

I predict that the result of this poll will be rather lopsided.

Thick. I believe if you had wanted some exciment to this you should have left Thick out. Aqualung would have been then my choise, but I think it wouldn´t been so obvious winner.

Love them all (sans Benefit and Too Old).

Gotta be TAAB though.

A should have been included. I put A (1980) above This Was, Too Old To Rock 'N  Roll, Heavy Horses (ducking) and Stormwatch.

A is A freAking fAntAstic Album.

My two absolute favourite albums from Tull are Stand Up and A Passion Play.

Aqualung, followed by Heavy Horses and Songs From the Wood.

Always been Benefit ..though Stand Up and Aqualung come close......also love SFTW..but all of those listed have good points .
As much as I like Tull I have always wondered why so many think TAAB is so great....I consider myself a Tull fan...and to me with only two songs and the second side being basically a repeat theme of the first, it simply doesn't hold up all the way.
