I think the term "concept album" is
way overused. I've heard people say that the first Smiths album is a concept album about child abuse (Huh? Apart from the tracks that bookend it, what else adheres to that "concept?" Maybe The Hand That Rocks The Cradle...but then again, even the Sgt. Pepper "concept" falls apart three or four tracks in).
The people who go on about what a great concept XYZ album is are far more annoying than the actual albums.
