Thick As A Brick2. Aqualung3. Songs From The Wood4. Minstrel In The Gallery5. Living In The Past6. Heavy Horses7. Benefit8. Stand Up9. A Passion Play10.

Mosher Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 There seems to be a bunch of people on here who are in complete agreement about the songs on this album. I actually like You Bet Your Life and Ghost of a Chance. Put 'em up, put 'em up! I love "You Bet You Life", but Ghost of a Chance is my least favorite on this album. In any event, this album was easy to predict. Neurotica last place, Dreamline first. I'd say let's just move to the next one, but we need to complete the process- maybe I'll be wrong. I disagree with the majority probably every step before we get to Dreamline, but I also think Dreamline is the best here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't that the only purpose of these polls? Anyway (to prove my point), with the utmost respect (which one says when they're probably not being respectful ;) ) Dreamline is good but 2nd placed at best. You just haven't seen (heard???) the light about Ghost. Good solid music compared to the good-but-too-safe Dreamline. Give Rush fans some slightly soppy lyrics and they all start running (or hurling!). Typical nerds!! ;) ;) It can't be all Neil-astute-cleverness you know :P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first heard Roll the Bones, as Dreamline started, I was thrilled. After Presto it was so welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosher Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 In keeping with Mr. Anderson's derailing of this thread, here's my Tull.I've excised Living in the Past as it wasn't a proper studio album- although it would rank high if I included it. I also excised the Christmas album because, at least to me, it doesn't fit. Many of these could shift readily, but number one is mostly fixed. Number 20 is permanently fixed. At least with 'A' I found my way to liking a few tracks. Under Wraps is abysmal. 1. Heavy Horses2. Songs From The Wood3. Aqualung4. Thick As A Brick5. War Child6. Stand Up7. Minstrel in the Gallery8. Too Old to Rock and Roll, Too Young to Die9. Catfish Rising10. Crest of a Knave11. Stormwatch12. Benefit13. Roots to Branches14. Rock Island15. This Was16. Passion Play17. Broadsword and the Beast18.
