Re: Ode to the Concept Album - Mooniverse Show #53

Does a whole side of an album count as a concept? If not, at least they're epics.
In that category we have:
MacDonald and Giles - Birdland - 1971
Nektar - Recycled -1976
Mike Oldfield - Tubular Bells - 1973
Renaissance - Scheherezade & Other Stories (sorry Gooze) - 1975
ELP - Tarkus - 1971
Iron Butterfly - In a Gadda da Vida (proto prog) - 1968
and of course Yes - Close to the Edge - 1972

Full length concept album:
Dream Theater - Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence - 2002
Moody Blues - Days of Future Passed - 1967
Bo Hansen - Lord of the Rings -1972
Camel - Snow Goose - 1975
Harmonium - Si on Avait Besoin d'une Cinquieme Saison - 1975
The Who - Tommy (proggy in my universe) - 1969

Happy Turkey Day (Thanksgiving in Canada only), and remember to thank Bob for prog

Good additions , but sorry, a side's worth of music is an epic and not a concept album. Tubular Bells is more a 12" single, no real story there (which is the heart of a concept album). Thanks for adding.
