No, I agree with Pud. Even on a song-by-song basis; for example,
California is supposed to be about a hooker? How does the song illustrate this? Bruce Springsteen's song
Reno is about a hooker- it's obvious from the lyrics, no further explanation needed. (However, I won't even begin to compare the songs themselves because, IMO, there is no comparison.
Reno is a serious song, for one thing)
As Sarge said, a true concept album tells the story all on it's own-
Tommy, The Wall, Joe's Garage- those are concept albums.
