Albums that'd be great...

--- Quote ---I have to say, though, if they took out the jammy parts, I think the chorus bit is really good. If they cut out the middle section, then it'd be a great track.

Yep and it is like that on a lot of their tracks, except Take the Veil, Cerpin Taxt. There it seems to work for some odd reason.
I never really listened that much to Frances the Mute, though I will say that The Widow is perhaps the most "straight" song Mars Volta has ever done.
Oh and I thought of one more:
Sonic Youth - EVOL - Bubblegum
The deathpan delivery saves it but essentially it cancels out the impact of Madonna, Sean and Me(aka. Expressway to Yr. Skull).
Which would have been the perfect closer since it is so grand and majestic.
onewheelwizzard:
"Octopus's Garden" and "Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da" are two of the sweetest, most utterly delicious pieces of musical candy that exist. They're not particularly incredible songs in the same fashion as, say, "Tomorrow Never Knows," but they're so bouncy and fun and playful that I won't raise a child without giving him or her these songs to dance to in preschool.
If Abbey Road has a lackluster track, it's definitely "Sun King." Everything should've just picked right up and started rolling without a break after "Because" and the extra slow track was unnecessary and breaks the flow.

I'd intended it for Zaarin, as he originally said what I questioned, but it was / is open for all.
KharBevNor:
Danzig - Danzig II: Lucifuge - Blood and Tears
Could have been maybe the best album of Glenn Danzigs whole damn career, then he puts what very well could be a Procul Harem song on it. Not that I dislike Procul Harem, but what?
Black Sabbath - Paranoid - Planet Caravan
Planet Caravan ain't a bad song, but what the hell is it doing on an album as heavy as this? Think about it for a moment, if this song wasn't there, we'd have the following flow of songs:
War Pigs
Paranoid
Iron Man
Electric Funeral
Hand Of Doom
I've taken drugs less awesome than that.
Current 93 - All The Pretty Little Horses - Twilight Twilight Nihil Nihil
I'll spare this song a lot of grief, as the (completely) different version of it they used to start Cats Drunk on Copper is absolutely amazing. However, the original is just eight and a half minutes of post-industrial masturbation sitting in the middle of a great neo-folk album.
Edge of Sanity - Purgatory Afterglow - Song of Sirens
Edge of Sanitys worst track ever. This includes the hardcore punk song they wrote and recorded in one evening all smashed on vodka, their Police cover, and the techno remix of Angels of Distress.

--- Quote from: Bastardous Bassist ---Experimental is fine, but just plain stupid stuff to link plot is not. Good operas have very few stupid bits just for the sake of plot, concept albums should be the same, damnit. If you can't come up with a good song to say what you want to say, then don't do the goddamned concept album. Queensryche, I'm looking at you and "Suite Sister Mary." God damn I dislike that song. It sounds like an Andrew Lloyd Webber song.
--- End quote ---
Disagree. Strongly. I think Suite Sister Mary is perfect and way better than Andrew ever was. I feel it's needed and that it belongs.
But, from the same year and another concept album:
Iron Maiden: 7th son of a 7th son ... Can I play with madness. What is that 'written for single' thingy doing on such an awesome album? It feels a lot like having an ABBA song in the middle of Kill 'Em All. It's just wrong ...
