A haunting collection of songs written in India while he was studying TM with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, in the company of the Beatles. A fertile moment of cross-fertilization.

A double-set originally packaged in luxurious box (a first!) in two parts: one for the grown-ups (disc 1), the other for "the little ones". Timeless, poetic, folk-pop.

A folk gem that already hints, notably with "Sunny Goodge Street" and its classically elegant arrangement, at the delights to come.

Wow. 51 albums in common. Great number one. When I went through a spell of depression I played the White Album constantly and it helped me. It was my favourite Beatles album for a long time. Then my favourite was Revolver for years. In the last year Sgt Pepper has become my favourite. I play it all the time. Plenty of other great albums and a few to discover especially Donovan. I am a fellow Scotsman and only know his singles. Now I want to hear his albums. It would be good to see more French music of the 60s apart from Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin. But I suppose you are limited for space.
Tres bien!
