Jethro Tulls Highest Charting Albums 

Two Number 1 albums, each with only one song....

I'm fairly sure that Jethro Tull is unique in the wide world of Rockdom in having two chart topping albums of one song per album.

Both Jethro Tull Albums that reached #1 on US music charts were double sided LPs with only one song!

Thick As A Brick was released in 1972 with only one song on the LP also titled Thick as a Brick. This album/song totaled over 43 minutes! It eventually rose to number one in the US and number 5 in the UK charts.

Passion Play , released the following year in 1973, was essentially one track as well. It is a continuously running track lasting over 48 minutes but can also be broken down into 16 smaller medleys. It rose to #1 in the us but peaked out at #13 in the UK.

Thick as a Brick

43 minutes of #1 rock song in one sitting! Who can resist?

Great lens, I loved Tull since i first heard Witches Promise back in the late 60's. My favorite album would have to be Aqualung of course, but I also love Living In The Past.

I lensrolled this into my PFM lens...
