The Beatles - Love. CD rip. Part of me loves this as it’s The Beatles, but the other part is thinking don’t mess with perfection, but then again I never saw the show and heard it in context. Think I’ll stick to the studio albums.

Ayreon - The Source (2017)
Chronologically a later album but is the prequel to this

Ayreon - 01011001 (2008)
01011001 being the binary representation of the ASCII character “Y”.
Planet Y being part of the story arc

In total 34 singer over the 2 albums! All of them (lead) singers in their own successful bands and talented in their own right.

Ben Harper - Winter is for Lovers.

Just Ben and a lap-steel guitar, playing some hugely evocative choons.

Such a relaxing listen, this is an out and out belter!
