Neither. Aqualung is better than both together. TAAB sounds very repetitive at some times. APP is too unfocused, se kind of TOTO (yes) bad developed.

I say both are worth four stars, but A Passion Play is closer to five.

A Passion Play is quite good. But Thick As A Brick is excellent.

A Passion Play is great, but it just can't hold up to Thick as a Brick, one of the great masterpieces of progressive that towers above all Prog in 1972.

Or maybe it's my favorite strait prog album.

TAAB is brilliant, Passion Play is a little overrated IMO. I just don't like it as much as most other Tull albums.

Well, I enjoy both of them.

Some people despise A Passion Play. They say it's directionless - what do they mean by that?
