Sure it may sound a bit obscure, but is one hell of a Canterbury album!!

I am not a big fan of Prog Rock but do like some stuff from that style, I was just wondering if the term 'Concept' applies only to this genre? Also does a Concept Album have to be centered around a single story or idea or can it just be the way the album feels, sounds and flows. Can an album have songs that are about completely different things but looked at in the same way?

Concept albums can be from any genre however most times they are from the prog genre. These albums usually have a theme that runs throughout the whole album (ie they tell some kind of story).

Yes but can the 'theme' be a certain style or sound or does it have to be a definite story?

It has to be a definite story. I never heard of a album being called a concept album just because the songs sounded the same.

But couldn't the term concept apply to the overall 'feel' of an album?

If by feel you mean the lyrics then thats kind of a gray area. If your referring to the music sounding the same then no. Usually concept albums tell some kind of story.
