Advantages: The first Moody Blues concept album. Is this what started prog rock?
Disadvantages: Perhaps a little dated - but it is 40 years old!

Johnny Cash on the other hand made totally inspiring music, I always imagined that god sounds a bit like Johnny Cash, but god speaks in Hebrew... Read review
