I always thought a Rock Opera had to have a solid storyline and as much as I love it Bat Out Of Hell doesn't really have a storyline does it? I know the songs themselves do but the album as a whole? I guess each
Aside from that though I don't know a few of the albums on the list but seeing Tommy at number one isn't much of a surprise as it is very good. Surprised that The Wall or Lamb Lies Down On Broadway didn't show up on there and I'm very pleased to see Operation Mindcrime in there too because Mindcrime is incredible.
As for me personally my favourite Rock Operas/Concept Albums would probably be The Wall, Mindcrime, Scenes From A Memory, and pretty much all of the Ayreon project albums :P
