I love concept albums! I've always loved albums where the songs are presented to tell one coherent story. Here are my favorites!!

The Wall and Tommy are whiny and pretentious, and those respective bands have better albums...

Oh and I almost forgot...

Pink Floyd's The Wall is the best by far. The very definition of a concept album. I also like:

Pretentious maybe. Whiny, sorry but I don't see how you arrive at that. Besides, regardless of whether they have albums "better" or not is irrelevant in this thread. This is a favorite CONCEPT albums thread.
