Stan Getz – The Complete Columbia Albums Collection (2011) [8CDs Box Set]

Stan Getz - The Complete Columbia Albums Collection (2011) [8CDs Box Set]

Marillion - Fuck Everyone and Run (F E A R) (2016) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Delivering a political album is always risky, with the possibility that it will get locked in its historical era usually a direct consequence.

FEAR is an acronym for “Fuck Everybody and Run.” Two of its three lengthy, multi-part suites (“El Dorado” and “The New Kings”) are overtly political statements that look at England and the calamitous state of the world not only observationally but experientially.
