THICK AS A BRICK

There should be allowed to every fond prog reviewer in this site the chosen of SEVEN masterpieces to receive a sixth star. And I say SEVEN just because there are seven days in a week and seven wonders in the world, as well?

Of course, "Thick As A Brick" would be one of those seven masterpiece to receive a sixth star. For those that might be curious I say the other ones are "Close To The Edge", "Selling England By The Pound", "Foxtrot", "Pawn Hearts", "Godbluff" and "In A Glass House". Of course, my apologies to "In The Court Of Crimson King", you would be the eighth; but unfortunately we are allowed to choose only seven (I cannot stop joking ever?)?

Ok, I like to make fun many of the times, but I can I say about "Thick As A Brick" that wasn´t said yet ? Frankly, not too much. Master of concept album ? Of course it is. The story told in this concept is so strong and above average and matches criterion of genius ? Of course ! The only new thing I can present is my position of an old prog lover; "Thick As A Brick" is for me the ONLY album that really gets near "Close To The Edge" as the best prog album that has ever been recorded? SIX STARS?
