What's your favorite "concept" album?

For me it has to be Queensryche's "Operation Mindchrime". I was blown away the first time I heard this album and it seemed every time I listed to it, I discovered new twists and turns in the story Tate was telling us through his lyrics.

Great songwriting, storytelling and of course, great music.

Great album! I need to dig that one back up, as it's been a long time since I've listened to it.

If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

Rush- 2112

The lyrics and music were set apart from what anyone else did at that time.

Don't know what a "concept" album is, but I always liked Portishead and Bjork. They were pretty different for that time.

A toss up between Marvin Gaye's What's Going On and Here My Dear albums.
