This question came to me after enjoying "Homo Erraticus", the new concept album by Ian Anderson, leader of the band Jethro Tull, who also recorded popular concept albums "Thick As A Brick", "A Passion Play" and "Thick As A Brick 2". (I just posted about "Homo Erraticus" in the Small Talk section.)

If Gordon Lightfoot had recorded a concept album during his career, what concept might it have been based on? (The history of Canada? An armchair tour throughout Canada? A biography about his ancestors, his own life and interests and what he wishes for his descendants? ... )
