damn, stacy seems to have the same taste in music as I do (did) and
posts what I was going to.
I'd say Quadrophenia for best concept album
2nd best Who Sell Out.
the best never realized concept album "Lifehouse"
(later became who's next)
(do I sense a theme here?)
I was going to include King Crimson, Alan Parsons (i Robot)
but Stacy beat me to them.
And I was going to add Best Overblown Bloated concept
anything by Rick Wakeman.

As I said in my original post The Wall and Quadrophenia are certainly the best IMO.

I saw the documentary on Lifehouse, and it reinforces my belief that Pete Townsend is a genius.

Didn't he get in trouble for looking at kiddie porn on the internet?

Yes, but he was naive rather than a paedophile.

Gary Glitter, however, is a paedophile.

Have heard "The Wall" several times, but in my opinion the story/concept is much stronger and interesting in Queensryche's "Operation Mindcrime." Now that is a concept album.

Have you seen the movie The Wall?
