ABWH Live with Tony Levin

I have been unwell this week so I have only had time to listen to the first moments of the ABWH Live at the NEC package. However, I have had time to look at the sleeve notes and do a bit of research.

  • Why was it not released until 2012?
  • Who is playing on it?

Listen to the episode and then let me know what you think!
