Hello all,

Just thought that you might be interested in a free album download that the band Mr. So & So are giving away. The album 'The Overlap' features Steve Rothery from Marillion (recorded partly at The Racket Club too) and was produced by Steve Rothery and Mike Stobbie (Pallas, Arena etc.)

Click here to take you to the Mr. So & So home page where all the download links are.

God bless the artists who give us their hard work for free.  But I can't blame anybody who expects to make a buck or two off us for giving us a pleasurable sonic experience.

Totally agree. The free downloads should be regarded as promo albums and therefore giving priority. 

Another thing is that the quality of these albums is often as good as those you pay many pesos/dollars/euros/pounds/kroners for. Money which is really hard to come by these days where the working and the middle class is hit really hard and whose living costs has at least doubled over the last months. I am going through my own household budget right now. Shocked Shocked  

Back to topic

I kindly suggest that these free albums will bring some sunshine during these new hardship we all feel right now. Download now. I am off to the Jazzcomputer website.
