Pink World....

One of the albums in my collection is a two-record set called "Pink World" by the Planet P Project. For those of you who don't know, the Planet P Project is keyboardist Tony Carey, once with Richie Blackmore's band Rainbow.

I first heard this album from the local library. I later found a copy of the album in the discount bin. I think. Recently, I found some of the songs on YouTube.

The world that is depicted in Pink World is somewhat harrowing, almost like a dystopic SF world. Surverillance cameras are everywhere. People in cages for a human barrier of sorts. Through it all is a young boy, named Artimis, who doesn't speak. It's been a while since I've heard the album, so my details are sketchy at best.

It's been on my "to digitize" list. Not any more.

I found Tony's web site and it mentioned that Pink World, and his eponymous debut album, have been remastered and released on CD. So I went looking for it on eBay. And found it.

What are your favorite concept albums that I should know about?
