Yes, a themed album for sure, Mercy Mercy Me and Inner City Blues were years ahead of their time in terms of social and environmental comment and it was a completely new direction for Motown.Logon or register to see this image
It`s canny - he`s doing it in 3 parts with parts 1 and 2 now out and Part 3 coming this year. Part 1 re-Imaginos was more of a stripped down acoustic album but Part 2: Bombs Over Germany (Minus Zero and Counting) is more full on electric. Apparently Part 3: The Mutant Reformation is supposed to be more bombastic too. he`s then going to put all three out together in a deluxe set with extra material. It`s pretty ambitious and I`ve enjoyed it so far although Albrt`s voice is an acquired taste and probably works best when he shares the singing with Eric, Buck and Joe.Any recommendations for best concept albums? I'm often intrigued by them and want to see a great band/musician express a big story or theme across an album, but there can be a lot of dross. There's obviously Ziggy Stardust and What's Goin' On? as well as the big rock band ones like 2112 and Operation Mindcrime. But there's also utter shite like this: a Scientology themed concept album

@mickb2112 how did Bouchard's attempt to redo Imaginos pan out?
Love it. Loved it then and love it now. Under The Rose and The Oath are as good as anything they`ve ever written and Ace`s solo on Dark Light is one of his very best alongside Strangeways and Hard Times.The Elder
