Topic: The Jethro Tull Tournament, ROUND 1 Posted: January 03 2008 at 22:02 |
There hasn't been a tourney in forever!
Jethro Tull is band most of the forum members know, and this should be easy to get a high vote count in each round and get the best album standing at the end.
Remember, you are voting for your LEAST FAVORITE album!
Try and explain why in a post, will ya? 
This poll will close on Sunday, January the 6th 10:00 PM EASTERN MOUNTAIN TIME.
Peace.

Same here. This won't be interesting for about 10 rounds.

Well my vote goes for Broadsword and the Beast.
The only thing to describe it would be this:

Aww, I can't play. I've heard and have everything except for Broadsword and post Rock Island stuff, so if I vote based on those I know, I might be inadvertently giving approval to something that might be worse than the least favorite of those I know.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I will defend A, at least for a few rounds. It's no masterpiece, but it is easily a 3 to 3.5 star album from me.

O man...we agree. 
A was a surprised for me. Didn't really expect to like it as much as I did.

The Christmas album, I havn't heard it, but I LOATHE bands cashing in on holidays more than any chunk of crappy music I have ever heard, or ever expect to hear.

IMO one of the best Tull albums.
Anyway it's unfair to vote if you haven't heard the album.

The Christmas album is OK, not good but not bad either.
And since it is looking like it won't matter, I'll let the vote stand to avoid any controversy.
