I think "concrete" is mainly used for examples or plans.
"Please give a concrete example."
"You need to have a concrete plan in place if you're going to do this."
Specific can be used in more situations
"Tell me specifically what you mean when you say that."
"My mom only likes specific types of herbal teas."
"Juinor Assiant to the 3rd Assisant Copywriter is a very specific job title."
"I don't have specific plans for tomorrow, but I'm sure we'll do something fun." (could also use concrete here)
