Yeah. There are Rock operas which are albums that tell a unified story, but not one which is meant to be acted out like an actual opera.

The ~~Doors~~ Who album Tommy was one of the first to be billed as such. As well as most of what The Protomen and The Mechanisms have put out.

The Doors album Tommy

You mean The Who?

Yeah, definitely. Thanks.

Now I'm imagining what Tommy performed by the Doors would sound like.

No, he's on first.
