What's especially unique about Pink Floyd is that they were able to release concept albums that worked with the masses and received massive popularity. Fed with radio airplay of the songs that are more radio tailored.
This is very unique, especially these days when one has a hard time to think of a current act that could get away with it - probably Tool can get away with a concept album and 10 minute songs and sell millions of copies, but then again they are not this easy to push into a mainstream radio and they have their "tool" fans.
It's actually that they might easily be the least contraversial and best mass accepted band in the history.
