Some hits, some misses, some very good choices (Peacock, Hammill, Fripp, Bruford)
some weak Albums (stormwatch is the weakest Tull album I know: Elegy is the only good song on it. - I have to believe you, that they did even weaker albums. Just good I don`t know them)The Wall and Breakfast in America did a big commercial success, maybe my problem that I don`t like them.
