Thick As A Brick is one of the greatest albums ever recorded. This one's easy.

Interesting. I always thought Benefit sounded sensational and never felt the need to replace my original LP (although I've bought it on CD at some point). The record looked rather worn when I bought it for the price of a chocolate bar back when both LP's and prog were unhip, but it sounded rich and crystal clear. And still does.

Yet, I think with just two albums you can have just about the very best from this band, and for me mostly in their best versions. Live Bursting Out and Live at Montreux.

I prefer all of the Wilson mixes. Maybe 3 or 4 songs from the 13 sets are not as good as they were originally I thought. Hopefully they found the witches promise tape for the 50th book version. Then the massive Broadsword set next. Very excited to hear the production and the tonnes of new tracks
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.

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Fave Tull album remix book set. Very tough decision. Tonnes of great extra tracks. TAAB was the best choice of tracks for an album but I’d rate it 5th best studio year.

I’ll go top 10 in order

Stormwatch set
Aqualung set
Passion set
Horses set
Thick set
Songs set
Warchild set
Benefit set
A set
Too old set

These are 5 star sets and a lot better than the originals
Thanks
