I consider myself a subscriber to short-attention span theater, but you may
take the cake, Jim K:) Plenty of great *albums* have been made since the
days of the Beatles. I won't further "correct" you on the particular Beatles
albums that people pointed out, but a few of the great, cohesive albums that
I've loved over the last 25 years include Talking Heads' Fear of Music, Sam
Phillips' Martinis and Bikinis, Paul Simon's Rhythm of the Saints, Elvis
Costello and the Attractions' Imperial Bedroom, blah blah blah. I think
people often look for some grand "concept" album to satisfy the concept of
an album, but I would argue that's not necessarily the point.
