Choose the album that you prefer from the list and please explain why.

As for me I can't choose between Heavy Horses and A Passion Play.

Please don't ask why there are no TAAB and Aqualung Wink

Would you catch the final words of mine?

A Passion Play, followed by Songs from the Wood, Benefit, Crest of a Knave, Minstrel and Stand Up.

Heavy Horses over APP and Stand Up.

Passion Play is the only Tull album I still listen to on a regular basis.  I do enjoy most of the others though, I just don't listen to Tull in general that much any more.

Stand Up is my favorite JT record. 
I consider drone metal to be progressive...

Songs From the Wood just ahead of Heavy Horses. The rest of the list I can take or leave, but I love Aqualung (by far their best album for me) and I like TAAB.

For me it is always a toss-up between Songs From the Wood and Heavy Horses despite the fact that in almost all instances Heavy Horses wins, as it does this time.

Songs from the Wood, Stand Up, Minstrel in the Gallery. All three are superb.

Where's "A"? 

Much maligned but I love it....not as much as Stand Up, Benefit, APP or SFTW but it should be more appreciated than it is.

I'm a big fan, I love all from the list with a plus on Songs from the Wood, my fav JT album ever. It was the first album I've hered from them and still have a soft spot fot it, a perfect combination between prog and folk.

Passion follows and A for me, a very under rated album for sure.
