Description
This 30th anniversary edition of Jeff Wayne's seminal concept album contains some enticing bonus material alongside the classic work itself. Inspired by H.G. Wells' visionary novel, Wayne takes the forces of progressive rock and light orchestral augmentations and applies them to Victorian Surrey and a terrifying Martian invasion. The new cast of the live show make an appearance on the second disc, which features videos of Jennifer Ellison performing 'The Spirit Of Man', as well as a new music video for a mix of 'Eve Of The War' and 'Forever Autumn'.
