Bands that had a "masterpiece", w/ common theme

Timrhu...

I'd have a hard time picking one over the other but gun to my head I'd take Michigan. I'm just happy to see other's digging his work.

XTC Skylkarking, and The Decemberists The Hazards of Love and to a slightly leesser extent, The Crane Wife. Crane Wife is a superb album with good sonics on most tracks but let down by compression and other nasties at times. Still, a great album!

Bowie "Rise @ Fall of Ziggy Stardust"

Neil Young "Greendale", Isaac Hayes "Shaft"

Despite what Mccartney says, people still consider it a concept album. Depsite what Lennon said about Julian's drawing of Lucy, people will still say that Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is basically an LSD trip and with all of the imagery, how can it be disputed?
