::Also, the Pretty Things "SF Sorrow" predates "Tommy" by a year, and is widely acknowledged to be the first Rock Opera (although again, it isn't really). Most sources point out the pieces you refer to - but a single piece does not make an opera, so again, I find this misleading. It's like saying that "Days of Future Passed" is the first symphonic prog album just because it features an orchestra. Well hang on - so do many Frank Sinatra albums.

::It's also like reading articles that claim "Bohemian Rhapsody" is a mini-opera. It's understandable how people could reach this conclusion, given the general misunderstanding of what opera is by the general public and the rock world's attempt to confuse it further, but "BR" is simply operatic in style - not to mention entirely tongue in cheek, as the lyrical content is meaningless.
