	Another great idea for a thread! Mine: 1.Casino (Casino) 2. Nude (Camel) 3. The Snow Goose (Camel) 4. Stationary Traveller (Camel) That's a lot of Camel, isn't it? I never knew before I made the list; Camel is concept album king for me.

	people there are so many great concepts in the history of rock(and metal). ocean, the lamp lies down on broadway, islands, over, snowgoose, scenes from a memory, operation mindcrime, dead winter dead etc, it's difficult to choose

	I find this very difficult to answer, as I really like: Queensryche: Operation Mindcrime Fates Warning: A Pleasant Shade Of Gray DT: Scenes From A Memory Shadow Gallery: Tyranny/ Room V PoS: The Perfect Element (Part 1) which all come under the Prog Metal category, but then I like IQ, Genesis, Yes & Floyd who have all done equally excellent concepts which are totally different. It all depends on the mood I am in to be honest..... sorry I am no help whatsoever....
	Music has always been a matter of energy to me. On some nights I believe that a car with the needle on empty can run 50 more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S Thompson

	I'll add my (probably) favorite: Jethro Tull - A Passion Play I find the concept 'conceptual' pretty difficult, but that's another thread in itself...

	1. The Who- Quadrophenia (The best concept album EVER in my opinion) 2. Jethro Tull- A Passion Play (I actually find it more enjoyable than TAAB) 3. Ayreon- Into the Electric Castle 4. Pink Floyd- Animals (Not a concept, per se, but rather an album with heavily linked themes).

	Camel - The Snow Goose Horslips - The Tain Horslips - The Book of Invasions Camel - Nude Strawbs - Grave New World Pick any 4 from those - I can't. If you haven't heard the Horslips albums, you perhaps should. They are on this site but not in the mainstream of prog (more Celtic Rock) but they are awesome. Another amazing (but non-prog, more folk-rock) concept album is Runrig - Recovery
