I suppose what's happening here is, you'll always get the same thing out of B but you'll always get a different thing out of A. It has that musical-shifting-sands quality which is so excellent when done well.

B
Let U be the set of all united sets, K be the set of the kids and D be the set of things divided.
Then it follows that ∀ k ∈ K: K ∈ U ⇒ k ∉ D

A is rather wonderful: beautiful, mysterious, ethereal without ever being twee or soppy. It is also, by my count, the fifth time someone has used one of my own prior BCB Cup picks in this tournament. I'm sure I should be getting some kind of Lifetime Achievement Award or something for that.

B is also a fine listen, full of sound and tune but never achieving the transcendent quality of the best of this stuff, or indeed of A.

A is a haunting beaut. B is fine but the 70s cup have hd way too much of that genre. Fairly easily

The Perhacs-album is really pretty. Really enjoyed the little revival of about a decade ago when this album and various other similar albums got to the fore.
I love Harmonia a lot though and this is a great pick.
