The April 2015 edition of German rock magazine Eclipsed (just published) includes the result of their work on the Top 150 Concept Albums - 'The Big Ranking', and with thanks to BD regular Michael Nickel we have more details for you.
The Eclipsed team distilled the 150 relevant or most appropriate albums, from a compiled list of 500 concept albums, and then decided on the final order. Pleasingly, and not entirely surprisingly, Pink Floyd came in at the coveted number one spot, with 1979's double album The Wall.
The band did well in the poll, as did solo works from Roger Waters, with the following further entries:
No 6 - The Dark Side of the Moon (1973)
No 12 - Wish You Were Here (1975)
No 21 - Roger Waters - Amused To Death (1992)
No 26 - Animals (1977)
No 89 - Roger Waters – The Pros And Cons Of Hitchhiking (1984)
Our thanks to Michael for the info about this latest poll...
