Benefit has always been mine. Great mix of rock, folk, and a last gasp from the early blues influences.

A Passion Play is the greatest, even better than Thick as a Brick, except for the Hare Who Lost His Spectacles section.  Either way, Passion Play got my vote.  Close call though.

Hard to say.

I like every music decade of Tull.Even the eletronic stuff.

But the most outstanding albums are Roots to Branches, Thick as a Brick, Chateu Disaster Tapes and the three Folk Rock Albums.
At least at the moment

I`ve forgotten Thick as Brick

My favorite Tull album is Benefit. I don't think I could call it their best, but it is my favorite.

I think the complete heavy horses session of 15 songs and the complete aqualung session of 20 songs are probably even better than thick as a brick

Aqualung

I really like Thick as a brick but at time I got the taste of A passion play and the more I hear it the more I love it. IMO their best, most complex, most ambitious work and the hardest to apreciate. Truly a masterpiece in every sense of the word

Top five:

Minstrel in the Gallery

Aqualung

Songs From the Wood

Heavy Horses

Thick as a Brick

Really they do not have a bad album IMO. Their bottom three would be Rock Island, Catfish Rising and Roots to Branches.

Jethro Tull certainly have some

impressive albums, but “Thick

as a Brick” tops them all and

it is one of the finest albums in

Progressive Rock history.

“Minstrel in the Gallery” would

be my second preference, also

very good.
