Saga - "The first 8 Chapters" (Studio Editions)

A while back there was discussion regarding the original 8 chapters written by the band Saga that were recorded and published on their first 4 studio albums. The story was inspired by the Cold War, and the preservation of Albert Einstein's brain, which was kept by Thomas S. Harvey, M.D. The original intent was to release 8 chapters, but the band ended up with a total of 16 chapters.

I am posting the studio edition of the first 8 in a single playlist. In 2005, Saga released a live album of all 16 chapters, but other than that, this is the only place I know of where you can here the first 8 studio editions strung together like this, so its potentially a one-of-a-kind listen! Kinda cool...

So here you go...

Here are the 4 albums...

IMAGES (Chapter 1)
From: Images at Twilight

DONT BE LATE (Chapter 2)
From: Silent Knight

ITS TIME (Chapter 3)

WILL IT BE YOU? (Chapter 4)

Interesting. Works for me, that's all that matters. But then again, that Marriot_Starbucks one sounds good as a backup. Wonder how far it goes....

I listened to this, and for me it's just okay. I'm a huge fan of the two big hits off of Worlds Apart from this band, but I'm having trouble getting into everything else. But I do love the concept of spreading this out over so many albums. I appreciate you putting it together for us to hear Scott.
