Considered by many including myself to be the best rock opera ever! Ann Margret was smokin' hot, Jack brought his A game and Oliver Reed was fantastic! And not to mention the Acid Queen herself Tina Turner!

The Kinks "Arthur (or the decline and fall of the British Empire" qualifies as well, I think.

So not really knowing what rock operas are out there, I found one site that ranks them 10-1 as:
10. Jesus Christ Superstar - Webber and Rice 9. Operation: Mindcrime - Queensryche 8. Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From A Memory - Dream Theater 7. S.F. Sorrow - Pretty Things 6. The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spider From Mars - David Bowie 5. Tommy - The Who 4. Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire) - The Kinks 3. The Lamb Dies Down On Broadway - Genesis 2. The Wall - Pink Floyd 1. Quadrophenia by The Who
Very interesting.
