1. Crest of a Knave – My first JT album (I came really late to the JT party) and usually the album that gets me into a band is the one that stays as my favorite 2. Stand Up 3. This Was I do like what they became in the 70s when they discovered and perfected who they were as a band. But I prefer the first two albums as they were still in that process of exploring a bit.
I refuse to rate Tull by albums. I’ll rate them by year. The remixes have given us everything. Tull had 25 albums worth of unrepeated studio songs from 1968-84. These are the strongest years in the studio whether the album was strong or not due to lots of extra strong material. 1971 1972 1973 1974 1977 1978 1979 These were pretty good years too. 1969 1970 1976 1980 1982 I find 1975 tulls weakest year of this period. Not many strong melodies and not great production. 1968 is even better imo
I don't put on tull as much as i used to. So I can't accurately answer. I will say my favourite is thick as a brick.
Aqualung Thick as a Brick Benefit Honorable Mentions... Songs From The Wood Heavy Horses Minstrel Passion Play
ya its a tuff one but some great writing in there agreed not your standard fair but still I could never just pick 3 Tull albums there is great stuff in all of them
ya but that's the charm of it lol ever watch the video ? total Campy swill but has a charm about it too
1. Minstrel in the Gallery 2. Stand Up 3. Songs from the Wood (If War Child had originally included the outtakes over the lesser album cuts, it would have competed for Top Three)
ya know another I like is the live album Bursting Out cant really think of much Tull I don't like really lol except maybe Storm Watch but it was a weird time in my life also so would really have to give that one a fair shake ahh lol
