While stumbling through my files, I find I've dl'd lots of wraps only because the albums make "sense" when looked upon and played as one "piece"-examples:

Alan Parsons Project-
Tales of Mystery and Imagination
I, Robot
Pyramid

Roger Waters
Radio Kaos

Jethro Tull
Thick as a Brick
Aqualung

Pink Floyd
The Wall
Delicate sound of Thunder

I could go on, but you see what I mean?

Constantly looking for this type of album-what others?

Two nice additions to the list:

Roger Waters - Pros & Cons of Hitchhiking

Marillion - Misplaced childhood



I didn't know Delicate Sound of Thunder was a theme album. (that's what I call 'em)

Double click the song file and where it says pause put "0" instead of the default 2

Will check them out-thanks-keep 'em coming.
"Delicate Sound..." doesn't strictly fit the def. but still plays nice that way.

I think I could have saved a bit of time by using your term "Theme Albums"; don't know why it didn't occur to me.

I have not heard his music before. What kind of music is it? (who does it sound like or remind you of?)

the album in question is early 70s, cambridge prog-rock - it's a very peculiar and inspiring album - also quite depressing :)

all of the rhapsody albums tell a story and need to be played in order, in truth each of the 5 albums also follows on from the one before to build up a saga

I don't think "Delicate Sound of Thunder" is strictly a theme album. It's live and features tracks from a few Pink Floyd L.P's. "The Wall" definately counts though!! What about "Atom Heart Mother" also by Pink Floyd, "Chillout" by the KLF, "Space" by Space. My personal favourite is "What's Going On?" by the late, great Marvin Gaye. Truely one of the first concept albums and needs to be listened to as a whole.
:D
