This album had a lot of great moments, but it's a total mess in other parts and doesn't fit together well. The songs about Tommy's childhood are great but the plot rushes forward too quickly and disjointedly in the second half.

Yeah that sounds about right.
I just don't like how absurd the whole Tommy becomes the messiah for young people plot is.
I think it would have been stronger if Tommy regained his senses, but rather than become a sensation, became wrapped up in how mundane everything really is and realized that even with his senses back he was still effectively deaf dumb and blind.

I think the tracklist is actually unintentionally wrong. Various tracks seem out of order in the plotline for no apparent reason.

concept albums are corny as hell

Nah, doesn't make sense

>>130677187
It makes perfect sense as best as the storyline can be discerned
>Side A: Tommy's birth, traumatic inciting incident and early troubles
>Side B: Tommy's abusive family life
>Side C: Tommy's emergence as a pinball star and his family's search to cure him
>Side D: Tommy's celebrity guru arc and downfall
