    My second favorite album is Music Inspired By Group of Seven by the Rheostatics.
    A mostly instrumental album, dedicated to the famous Canadian painters, the album itself is a musical interpretation of the vast Canadian landscape, and what Canadian culture actually is. Stunningly georgeous and sounding as enormous as the nation is!

    that makes me remember another great album, arguably a concept album too: Rick Wakeman's No earthly connection (my favourite from him)
    thinking again about it, Wakeman must be the king of concept albums, since I would consider concept albums the already mentioned plus Voyage to the center of the earth, The six wives of Henry VIII..... mmm... there was another one called criminal record but I didn't like that one

    I like the Moody Blues with Days of Future past and The Present.
    they are progressive as a rock group.

    yes! that's a wonderful band with a lot of concept albums: The Days of Future past, In search of the lost chord, On the threshold of a dream, To our children's children's children, a great band of the sixties and seventies sadly forgotten, their not the tipical one song band, though they are always remembered by their Nights in white satin,
    is one of those few bands I remember every member, who wrote which song, no one else loves them?

    I would have to include Tarkus by Emerson Lake and Palmer with its overarching themes of the consequences of technology and the military-industrial complex run amok and what our responses/actions as decent, thinking sentient beings would--or should--be.
