Chris Cornell - Chris Cornell (4 CD Deluxe Edition, 2018) [FLAC]

 

Nearly a year-and-a-half after Chris Cornell’s death, a career-spanning retrospective collection captured the breadth of his varied career as a solo artist and vocalist of Soundgarden, Audioslave, and Temple of the Dog. That massive vinyl box set was pared down into a tight greatest hits simply titled Chris Cornell. Arranged in chronological order as a highlight reel of his iconic career, this self-titled compilation offers a bittersweet reminder of just how much Cornell accomplished in roughly 30 years on the scene, from a ’90s Seattle grunge icon to a fearless late-era singer/songwriter.
Front-loaded with his mainstream alt-rock touchstones, Chris Cornell starts close to the beginning with “Loud Love” from Soundgarden’s 1989 sophomore effort, Louder Than Love.

Yes - Drama (1980/2013] [24-192]

Drama is the tenth studio album by the English progressive rock band Yes, released on 18 August 1980 by Atlantic Records. It is their only album to feature Trevor Horn on lead vocals and the first with Geoff Downes on keyboards. This followed the departures of Jon Anderson and Rick Wakeman after attempts to record a new album in Paris and London had failed. Drama was recorded hurriedly with Horn and Downes, as a tour had already been booked before the change in personnel. The album marked a development in Yes' musical direction, combining the band's progressive signature with Horn and Downes' new wave sensibilities.
