Concept Album "Show?"

It will be up to Vax to determine whether it is "manageable" since he is the one who will program it

I'd need only to create a database with the albums you'd want to have played.

If this is to be weekly, then there are 52 Wednesday per year. Concept albums are abundant in the progressive genre, so I don't think we'd run out of choices quickly.

Add: Marillion's: Misplaced Childhood, Brave, Afraid of Sunlight, and Marbles to the growing list. Pink Floyd's catalog is chock full too: DSotM, WYWH, Animals and The Wall. There are some 4500 albums in the library. I'm sure if we go through them we'll find ample material.

Some of these "concepts" are double album length. Is that going to present me with any special program length issues? Or, do we just pick a time (eg. 15:00 Wednesday) and play the concept album of the week?
