Nag has it at a 4.5 so it's okay.

Locomotive Breath alone makes this album for me. Greatest song opening of all time?

Yah me too.

I must have been in a weird head space the day I rated it. I have no excuses for my actions.

Oh, absolutely. Thick as a Brick is a great fuck you and a great song but the variation here is perfect imo.

@Nagrarok, given you prefer Aqualung over TAAB, I'd go;

1- Heavy Horses

2- Songs from the Wood

3- Nightcap (The unreleased masters 1972-1991)

4- Stand up

5- Too old to rock n roll too young to die

6- Roots to Branches

7- Minstrel in the Gallery

8- Passion Play

9-

10-

...

but that's just me.

For me it's:

Minstrel in the Gallery

Songs from the wood

Passion Play

Stand Up

Wild Horses

Too old to rock n roll too young to die

War Child



I have Stand up ranked Highest of these but I think it's one that should be gone back to after a firm appreciation has formed.

But that's just me.

hell yeah, especially cd1. It contains pretty much the best of what you find in Passion Play and versions are still better so yes.

I still need to check out Nightcap, I love A Passion Play.

Nightcap is not as bombastic as the adventurous Passion Play. So it's way more easy to get into.

JT; Yeah go get it!

I actually had no problem getting into A Passion Play, in fact I almost enjoy it as much as TAAB.

I couldnt disagree, but post Heavy Horses, you got the fantastic Roots to Branches and the underrated A, and without those, my Tull collection could not be complete.

I haven't heard anything past Broadsword yet.

Have you heard the semi-compilation Living In The Past (not to be confused with the best of Living WITH the Past) Jethro?

Nope. I own the DVD Living With the Past though. Worth buying?

Yeah I'd say so, I got it on vinyl the other day, It has some interesting rare tracks as well as a couple of live tracks.
