Concept albums
by Johnnyo 
A concept album is a musical record where all tracks are unified by a central theme, story, or idea. Rather than a random collection of singles, the songs function together as chapters in a book, meant to be listened to in a specific order for a cohesive experience

According to Wiki - Wish You Were Here is a legendary concept album exploring the theme of absence. Driven primarily by bassist and lyricist Roger Waters, the concept serves a dual purpose: a scathing critique of the cutthroat music industry and a deeply emotional tribute to former bandmate Syd Barrett
