Every once in a while I pick up an album I just can’t put down. It started when I was younger and bought Jimi Hendrix Experience tape, not cd because I am getting older and there used to be these things called tapes they had plastic and audio tape on the inside. But anyways this is one of those albums. From the opening song almost all instrumental to the final act this album takes you through a journey of color sight and sound and around the word in about 45 minutes. Chris Martin and the gang have outdone themselves with Viva La Vida. This is a must buy and a must in the listening department. Yes I know in the 40 year Old Virgin they said your gay if you listen to Coldplay but this album puts that theory to rest. It’s as if your sitting in the symphony only you don’t have to put on your monkey suit to enjoy this.  Start with the song Life in Technicolor and see if you can’t stop listening .
