A pretty enjoyable take on Abbey Road. It contains "Blossom Toes" Brian Godding. I personally find Kate Westbrooks voice horrendously annoying. But others may like it.

kate westbrook sounds totally great to me. great artist, great inspiration always. and great voice.

small correction to the tracklist here: after 'the end' there's no 'her majesty'... just the splendid encore ('she loves you', off 'abbey road' literally)

I've been buying some tracks by Internet because I think alan wakeman is the best saxophonist and it'd be nice if you can add more about him... his music is brilliant and everyone knows that.
