As I lead a relatively quite life I'm often caught out by what might be going on over there in the wider outside world. So this idea seems to me a new and original way to look at a career arc. Take a well established band and create an album/playlist (call it what you will) made up of the opening tunes from all of their albums. With a band like Yes* there's 26 opening tracks between 1969 and 2026. It creates a unique view of the artist's output; style, line-ups, changes etc. Not my idea of course, it was this guy CBQ. His other musical projects and live work are all there on his site.
*Other artists and bands are readily available for such a listening exercise, all out there somewhere. They make still be plugging away, they may be extinct by now. That doesn't matter.
Mr CBQ has also done some work on "Endings" - you get the idea.
