Two folk/blues albums from the classic era, the debut releases from Strawbs and Jethro Tull - pick your preferred one! Mine's certainly that punchy Tull album.

This Was always likely to be a win for Jethro Tull, but I'll need to give the Strawbs album a listen in a couple of months time before I cast my vote. Wink

My refrigerator smells like a lawn mower. I picked This Was.

Both are great but at the end, I voted for Tull.

Whoops, I forgot that I've heard This Was (tho only once) and hit the "haven't heard..." albums button.
OK album for a single listen, but not near as good as other Jethro Tull.

I like the Strawbs but haven't heard this particular album.
