Because of the tremendous response and participation in all other polls I made of this kind, here's one that I believe shall also cause excitement among the forum users! Please pick a favorite and leave a comment.

Tough choice. So many to choose from. Today, I'll go with Baker St. Muse. Tomorrow, it may be different.

Hold your horses. It's 'The Jethro Tull epics' and it's fixed now.

Since I love Jethro Tull’s music a lot, is quite hard to pick one over the other. I voted for Baker St. Muse, since I think is quite an amazing piece of music, comparable to any other long piece they did. Thick as a Brick and a Passion Play are my all time favorites though, but I figure they will get many votes I this poll.

Farm On The Freeway stunning song and COK is a favourite

TAAB...but it should be the whole album...it wasn't intended to be part 1 and part 2. In fact, there are a small number of CD releases out there that do not separate TAAB in to part 1 and part 2; https://www.discogs.com/Jethro-Tull-Thick-As-A-Brick/release/5690953 these CDs are now collectors' items.

Baker St Muse IMHO just doesn't go anywhere; parts are OK but on the whole I am indifferent to it. I remember when I bought MITG as a teenager...I loved the title track....I tried and tried to like Baker St Muse but to this day for me it only "just goes".

Heavy Horses.

Some others are probably more epic, whatever that means, but personally 'Heavy Horses' puts me at ease and it has a genuine, wholesome quality that puts it above the others. It's one of those songs that you could listen to over and over and never get tired of it.

TAAB. Either part 1 or part 2. It doesn't matter.
