Yeah, I thought those two would be getting all the votes. One thing these polls taught me: some people have very weird musical tastes.

I actually really like Slipstream; it's mellow and pleasant and has a good melody to it. Is it filler? Probably, but it never felt intrusive or obnoxious. There are actual songs on Aqualung that are also clearly filler and most of those are genuinely tough to listen to, much less enjoy.

Wind up. When it gets louder it sucks. Martins playing in the background and Ian's vocals at its worst. I only bother with the early version which I like
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.

Yep.

There's not one track on it I don't like and I'm not voting for the sake of it.

My one vote for Cheap Day Return renders Cross-Eyed Mary and Hymn 43 the two best tracks on the album, at least for the nonce.  Can't say I entirely agree with that.  Not my favorite Tull album but definitely in my top 10 for them.

I actually like almost every song from the album... the only ones I don't have in my IPod are "Up to me" and "Slipstream"... ufortunatley I don't remember how they sound, so I don't know which one to vote for. However, the thing with this album is, none of the tracks I have in my list comes from the original album version, I liked all of them better on alternate live versions (from Live at Montreux, Live: Bursting Out, or for the bunch of smaller less known pieces, from the Aqualung re-recorded live in the 90's... or "Wond'ring Aloud... again", which makes the song sound much more complete than just "Wond'ring Aloud").

That would be "Wind Up".

Great album. Nothing to dislike.

I'm with you on this one. I believe it's a matter of personal taste, but musically, it's a very well written and performed album.

That's going easy on them. I'd say worst band period.
