I can't choose. They are both perfect. A Passion play is more prog, tAAB has more accessible melodies.

A passion play for me. The soft ballad at the beginning and repeated all over TaaB has never made it for me. I kindda like it, but sometimes I find it simply boring. On the other hand, the amazing overture of APP hooks me and never lets me go....I love it and I'm gonna hear it right now!!!!!
I like Tormato, so shoot me! Every person in the world can't think the same.

Yes, and thats why I pick APP...well, actually I also like side one from APP more than side one from TAAB... but its true, side two of TAAB does lose a bit...

It depends on my mood, if I want to hear the folky side of Tull I go for TAAB but if I want to hear something a little more challenging I go for APP. So both.

I have always liked A Passion Play better, although both are fabulous albums.

I have to agree with you.  A 45 minutes long song with absolutely nothing acting as filler, THAT is definitely a Masterpiece.
