Zappa's is more interesting by far but there are some killer tracks on 'The Wall' (without needing to repeat them).  I am the proud owner of a signed vinyl copy of Act I  which I won in a competition when it was first released Smile

The Wall: better concept
Joe's Garage: much better music

The Wall, especially because of Comfortably Numb.

Although The Wall isn't by far the best Floyd record, it gets my vote anyway.

The Wall +1

Hmm....I don't really play either much these days....I suppose 'The Wall' because of those few songs that have become iconic.
'Joe's Garage' never did much for me though I am a fan of Zappa in general.

Mr. Waters gets my vote although not fully satisfied with his campaigning, it has significant both Pros and Cons

Both. LOL

Also, there has to be a performance where someone segues "Watermelon In Easter Hay" into "Comfortably Numb".
He looks at this world and wants it all... so he strikes, like Thunderball!

Zappa's 'crass' phase - my least favourite period of his, though still some great music.
