For me it's a split between Nine Inch Nails' The Fragile or The Downward Spiral.

Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway.

The Who - Quadrophenia

These are my two choices...hey, I just thought of some more additions to the Favorite Double Album thread!!

Seriously I was going to post those exact two choices.
 
I'd also nominate Tommy, also by The Who, and one of the progenitors of the idea of the concept album. In fact, I believe they coined the word "rock opera" to describe it.
 
And, last but not least, the Moody Blues put out quite a bit of this kind of music.
 
EDIT: Wow. There's been a lot of necromancing going on here lately. This is the second time I've got caught quoting somebody from years ago.
