A Passion Play, Part 2

~ Recording by Jethro Tull

Annotation

Original CD split at 21:36 and 23:30 to mimic the LP splits.

Later CDs have a slightly different length on the splits (23:05 + 22:00).

Ideally someone who owns multiple copies - old and new - can check if there is any reason to keep these separated.

Wikipedia notes:
On the original release of the album, side one ends in the middle of "The Story of the Hare Who Lost His Spectacles" (it is the same end on track 1 of the original CD release). The sound at the end of side one was a nod to children storytelling records which signalled the child or parent to flip the record over. Side two begins where it left off. However, on the 2003 remastered CD, the second part begins with the full story so that it does not get cut off in the middle.
