Jethro Tull

Ian Anderson has been making music for over a quarter of a century. The band he went into the studio with was Jethro Tull but the personal was either different from album to album or something on a personal level was going on with bandmates from album to album that he had to take over their playing duties. Name your top 5 Jetro Tull albums.
1)Aqualung
2)Crest of a Knave
3)Benifit
4)Songs from the Woods
5)Stormwatch
I have been buying the 24 bit remasters which sound great but also the updated liner notes by Ian tell you what "Trauma" the band was going through with each recording.

Bursting Out (IMHO the definite Tull live recording)
Aqualung
Thick as a Brick
Heavy Horses (Underrated, but excellent)
Songs from the Wood

Can't really comment the CD's sonically, original British LP pressings are quite OK, but the French pressing of Aqualung I own isn't as good as the British original (heard, but do not own...)

Where does one find the DCC CD's? Are they all as expensive as the ones advertised on ebay ($50)? Wow! Any suggestions for reasonably priced sources are most welcome. Thanks.

Peter,
If you have a 24 bit CD player I really think you will find the remasters quite reasonably priced. Try Amazon and look at BOTH used and new listing for the title you are interested. Sometimes the used ones ARE NEW and the price a bargin. I like the sound of the remasters I have purchased.For me the 24 bit makes a difference.
