It is not a bombastic album AKA solos and showboating, but a cohesive group effort, stands alone as a epic that few other prog bands can come close to a masterwork considering all points progressive rock.Ian anderson is a an absolute genius, to put this together it was never repeated again.

Poor Tull get a bad run in here. They’re better than all bands. The book remix series is the best collection in rock music. Bring on the next 3 remixes this year


They are
Check out the Aqualung and Stormwatch double albums
Thick, Passion, Horses and Songs sound stunning
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.

I think the PA top 100 agrees, too.
