Good call on the Tull. Another really good album that is straight up divorce songs from an even more messed up perspective is Richard and Linda Thompson's Shoot Out the Lights.
The two were a husband/wife group, and Richard cheated on her with, and was leaving her for, a younger and more attractive woman. Linda was made to sing songs about Richard leaving her with him, and actually suffered a subsequent nervous breakdown.
Wonderful album, messed up story.
Like this one...that poor woman.
