This album is my favorite Jethro Tull album, or at least it has been for the last two years. My brother gave me a copy of this in the late 70's and I listened once, then shelved it because I felt it was too weird. Most of the music I listened to at that time followed a pre-set formula: verse 1, verse2, chorus etc. Not Passion Play! This is a one of a kind work of art. Each part of this work is very unique and does not follow any formula. For this reason, the first listen or two may rub one the wrong way, but keep playing it and you too will be hooked. My particular favorite parts are: Best Friend Crtitique Oblique Overseer Flee the Icy Lucifer Passion Play tells a story, but that doesn't get in the way of the music. The story can be construed to mean many things, but I just like the pure instruments and the vocals. Five Stars all the Way!

The last Jethro Tull album with any ambition beyond getting enough songs together for a full LP and a tour, A Passion Play evoked a violently mixed response from fans and critics alike when it first appeared. In the decades since, it was generally neglected by the record label that owned it as well as most rock historians, until the spring of 2003, when this remastered and expanded version showed up, its first generally available upgrade a Mobile Fidelity gold-plated audiophile disc had shown up for a short time near the end of that label's existence. It literally runs circles around previous editions of the album, the guitars, keyboards, flute, sax, percussion, and bass all...
