Provided it’s played by a virtuoso, the Piano is one of the most beautiful acoustic instruments to ever grace humanity. As far as virtuosos go, it’s fair to say that Benny Andersson fits that description for his musical prowess is legendary.
While Andersson is clearly the focus here, Piano delivers a collection of songs that were not only written by Andersson but penned in collaboration with other exceptional tunesmiths. From ABBA to Benny Anderssons Orkester to Chess, Piano is a life’s work, reworked for the piano, and it is nothing short of spectacular.
More often than not, however, music is appreciated in the background to numerous other aspects of our lives, but if you have the opportunity to sit and listen, this album will not only captivate you but will likely bring you to tears.

Miller Anderson (born 12 April 1945) is a UK-based blues and rock guitarist and singer. He worked extensively with Ian Hunter in the formative years of the 1960s, before either of them achieved significant success. They worked in bands such as the Scenery and At Last The 1958 Rock 'n' Roll Show (later called Charlie Woolfe), and Anderson is referenced in the title track of Hunter's 1976 album All American Alien Boy ("well I remember all the good times me and Miller enjoyed, up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy"). Anderson would later guest on two Hunter solo albums. Apart from pursuing his solo career, he was a member of the Keef Hartley Band. Other groups Anderson has been associated with are the Spencer Davis Group, Broken Glass, the Dukes, Mountain, Savoy Brown, T.Rex and Chicken Shack. In early 2006, he joined the British Blues Quintet with Maggie Bell, Zoot Money, Colin Hodgkinson and Colin Allen. In the spring of 2016, Anderson returned to the studio and in July 2016 released a new album, Through the Mill.

Susan Kay Quatro (born June 3, 1950) is an American singer, bass guitarist, songwriter, and actress. In the 1970s, she scored a string of singles that found success in Europe and Australia, with both "Can the Can" (1973) and "Devil Gate Drive" (1974) reaching number one in several countries.
Quatro was born and raised in Detroit. Her father, Art, was a semiprofessional musician and worked at General Motors. Her paternal grandfather was an Italian immigrant to the U.S. and her mother, Helen, was Hungarian and she died in 1992. Her family name of "Quattrocchi" ("four eyes", meaning "bespectacled") was shortened to Quatro. Quatro's family was living in Detroit when she was born. She has three sisters, a brother (Michael Quatro), and one older half-sister. Her parents fostered several other children while she was growing up. Quatro grew up to be an "extrovert but solitary," according to Philip Norman of The Sunday Times, and she only became close to her mother after leaving the US for Britain.

Kansas - Leftoverture [Japanese Ed. Blu-Spec CD] (1976)

Year: October 21, 1976 (CD Aug 24, 2011)
Label: Epic Records (Japan), EICP 20074
Style: Progressive Rock, Soft Rock
Country: Topeka, Kansas, U.S.
Time: 58:50
Format: Flac Tracks 16/44,1 kHz
Size: 433 Mb

Steve Walsh began to experience writer's block prior to the recording, and his contribution to the album would ultimately be limited to co-authoring three songs; it fell on Kerry Livgren to fill the void. The new compositions retained much of the classically inspired complexity of Livgren's previous work. As with their previous album, Masque, Kansas recorded Leftoverture at Studio in the Country in Bogalusa, Louisiana. The Studio in the Country was so named because, as Livgren described on In the Studio with Redbeard radio show in the episode spotlighting Leftoverture, "it was in the middle of a swamp. We'd walk out of the studio and there would be gators in front of the studio, mosquitos the size of B-52s and at times armadillos would run into the control room."
Leftoverture opens with the song "Carry On Wayward Son", which Livgren wrote as a sequel to "The Pinnacle", the final song from the previous album Masque (1975). The album's title, Leftoverture, is a portmanteau of leftover and overture.

Keith Moon (The Who) - Two Sides Of The Moon [8 bonus tracks] (1975)

Year: March 1975 (CD 1997)
Label: BMG Music (US), 60038-2
Style: Rock, Pop Rock
Country: Wembley, Middlesex, England (23 August 1946 - 7 September 1978)
Time: 51:01

Size: 325 Mb

Two Sides of the Moon is the only solo studio album by the English rock musician Keith Moon, drummer for the Who. It peaked at No. 155 on the Billboard 200. The album title was credited to Ringo Starr. Rather than using the album as a chance to showcase his drumming skill, Moon sang lead vocals on all tracks, and played drums only on three of the tracks ("Crazy Like a Fox", "The Kids Are Alright" and "Move Over Ms. L"), although he played percussion on "Don't Worry Baby". The album features contributions from Ringo Starr, Harry Nilsson, Joe Walsh of the Eagles, Jim Keltner, Bobby Keys, Klaus Voormann, John Sebastian, Flo & Eddie (Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan of the Turtles), Spencer Davis, Dick Dale, Suzi Quatro's sister Patti Quatro, Patti's bandmates from Fanny Jean Millington, Cam Davis, and Nickey Barclay, and future actor Miguel Ferrer.

4 Non Blondes - Bigger, Better, Faster, More! (1992)

Year: October 13, 1992 (CD Oct 13, 1992)
Label: Interscope Records (Germany), 7567-92112-2
Style: Alternative Rock
Country: San Francisco, California, U.S.
Time: 41:06
Format: Flac Tracks 16/44,1 kHz
Size: 299 Mb

Charts: US #13, AUS #4, AUT #1, GER #1, NLD #1, NZ #1, NOR #10, SWE #1, SWI #1, UK #4, Portugal #1б Hungary #1. AUS, SWE, FRA & NLD: Gold; GER: 3x Gold; US, CAN & Spain: Platinum; AUT: 2x Platinum.
The year was 1992; here a band was completing what would become an international success, the first and last work of the 4 Non Blondes. The world was changing at that time; Music was progressively changing. And so, while the great Kurt Cobain was climbing the charts around the world with Smells Like Teen Spirit, a small group of young friends was just debuting in their career, probably unaware of unleashing a quick dart of innovation, a great shake to the international musical scene.
It's an incredible album, almost perfect, that should be listened to in its entirety and immediately, without the external world distracting you from that Masterpiece; it's a shout, this album, and let it shout in peace, you won't regret it. It's also a very varied album, talking about genres: the predominant one is undoubtedly Rock, but you certainly can't say that "Bigger, Better, Faster, More!" is just rock; there's also a strong trace of blues, especially in the first two tracks, like dance, in the latter part... It's a very sweet conjunction (we could also say a very tasty medley!) of genres that, for every song, for every melody and for every note, perfectly and masterfully build the body of the work; the solid voice of Linda Perry leads unchallenged to talk about various subjects: sex, drugs, anger, regret, despair... but beware, don't be too influenced by the words: it's a shout, remember! And you have to take it as such.

Johnny Winter - Johnny Winter And (1970)

Year: September 1970 (CD ????)
Label: Columbia Records (Austria), COL 472769-2
Style: Blues Rock, Hard Rock
Country: Beaumont, Texas, U.S. (February 23, 1944 - July 16, 2014)
Time: 41:42
Format: Flac Tracks 16/44,1 kHz

Johnny Winter And... Rick Derringer (vocals, guitar), Randy Jo Hobbs (vocals, bass), Randy Zehringer (drums).

After two late-'60s albums on Columbia, Johnny Winter hit his stride in 1970 working with Rick Derringer and the McCoys, now recruited as his sidemen and collaborators (and proving with just about every note here how far they'd gotten past "Hang on Sloopy"). In place of the bluesy focus on his first two albums, Winter extended himself into more of a rock-oriented mode here, in both his singing and his selection of material. This was hard rock with a blues edge, and had a certain commercial smoothness lacking in his earlier work. Derringer's presence on guitar and as a songwriter saw to it that Winter's blues virtuosity was balanced by perfectly placed guitar hooks, and the two guitarists complemented each other perfectly throughout as well. There wasn't a weak moment anywhere on the record, and if Johnny Winter And wasn't a huge commercial success, it was mostly because of the huge amount of competition at the time from other, equally inspired players, that kept numbers like the Winter originals "Prodigal Son" and "Guess I'll Go Away" as well as Derringer co-authored pieces such as "Look Up" from having the impact they should have had on FM radio.
