  1. “One of…” Yes. Although… I’d prefer …. Oh, say, “The Teacher,” or “Cold Wind to Valhalla,” or “Black Satin Dancer.”

  2. My three favorite Tull albums are the ones that I associate, for whatever reason, with a season of the year. I dunno if ol’ Ian intended them that way, but the album covers seem to match my feelings about them. They were also made, like “Too Old…” with the best Tull line-up ever.

    Summer: “Heavy Horses”
    Fall: “Songs from the Wood”
    Winter: “Stormwatch”

    Before CD’s vanish from the world entirely I’m gonna have to get the Steve Wilson re-mastered copies of these, along with “Minstrel in the Gallery”. I’ve got those versions of “Aqualung” (worth it just for being able to hear Martin’s guitar fills on “Locomotive Breath” alone) and “Songs from the Wood”. You can hear stuff that simply isn’t audible on the original LP’s or CD’s.
