    You gotta pick 3 and I'll allow a fourth to tie the third if you must
     
  2. Hard choice as I am a big Jethro Tull fan, but I would select:

    Thick as a brick
    Aqualung
    War Child

    The Chateau D’Herouville Sessions would be on my list if it was released as an official album. The sessions in my opinion are much better than the Passion Play album as it was released.

    In my opinion almost everything Jethro Tull have done is better than Passion Play. That is an album that just does not resonate with me.

    You and me both. I've tried numerous times since the 70's, and it never clicks with me...

    That’s like asking which three senses you like best.

    If only three...

    1. Thick As A Brick - Passion Play } tie

    2. Heavy Horses - Songs From The Wood } tie

    3. Stand Up - Benefit } tie

    4. Aqualung - Too Old To Rock and Roll :D

    This one's easy for me; even though it's true nothing is easy... In order of preference:

    This Was
    Stand Up
    Aqualung

    It is true that nothing is easy... Stand Up and Aqualung might have to be transposed. It depends on my mood.

    Although I'm sure; although I've never actually seen it Jethro's family album must be pretty interesting; especially if it includes pictures of him constructing the prototype of his plow.
