Jethro Tull: Thick as a Brick. OK, so it's not The Wall, but Thick as a Brick is one of the more elaborate concept albums in the history of prog. The lyrics of the 44 minute tune were supposedly written by an 8 year-old kid who caused a public furor after reading it on the BBC. The furor, and the lyrics, are laid out in some detail in a copy of The St. Cleve Chronicle & Linwell Advertiser printed in the liner notes. It even includes a review of the new Tull record! For an album-length track, it holds together very very well.
