Respect your opinion but I find TAAB more focused and realized as a continuous stream of thought process than Passion Play. I think the melodies are stronger in TAAB and I'm afraid I find the nursury rhyme story about the Hare & the Spectacles a poor diversion and frankly boring. I don't know what Ian was trying to achieve, humor (I don't find it funny), a deep message (the dialogue is too annoying) creative and out there (well it is that but not entertaining to me).
However like I said before, JT are probably in my Top 5 lists of fav bands of all time.

While Under Wraps is excrutiatingly bad, Passion play (hardly a fave of mine, but a fave shooting target) is not really all that bad an album.
TOTRNR, TYTD is much worse than APP
