Double vinyl LP pressing. When the prevailing guitar jingle of 'Mr. Jones' cascaded over radio in the early 90s, it was a sure sign that the Counting Crows were a musical force to be reckoned with. Their 1993 debut album, August and Everything After, burst at the seams with both dominant pop harmonies and rich, hearty ballads, all thanks to lead singer Adam Duritz. The lone guitar work of 'Mr. Jones' coupled with the sweet, in-front pull of Duritz's voice kicked off the album in full force. The album cover depicts handwritten lyrics to a song called InchAugust and Everything AfterInch, but the band decided against featuring the song on the album of the same name; it was not until over a decade later that it was played as part of one of their live concerts.

Yasmine Hamdan's I Remember I Forget, is a powerful reflection on memory and identity, blending personal and global themes with evocative storytelling. Building on her previous albums Ya Nass and Al Jamilat, Hamdan draws deeply on her Lebanese roots and global influences. The album explores the tragedies of Lebanon, particularly the 2020 Beirut explosion and the ongoing economic crisis, and transforms these events into universal metaphors for resilience and hope.
