Title: Delightful fruits of a friendship between George and Guy Laliberté
Review: The liner notes provided by Sir George Martin are alone worth the cost of 'Love' - they reveal a friendship between George Harrison and Cirque founder Guy Laliberté as the inspiration behind the Cirque-Beatles link-up. As a result, the songs presented on 'Love' are probably a bit 'George-heavy' when measured vs. the recorded history of the Fab Four as a group. But who's complaining? As a George fan, it's nice to see him get rewarded. He was always the true 'explorer' of the group.That said, the music that stands out on 'Love' is Lennon's. The urgency of "She's So Heavy," "Come Together" and "Glass Onion" is incredible. It was especially great to hear 'Onion' - I hadn't heard that in years. It's brilliant. And "I Am the Walrus" - even 40 years later - simply dazzles as a imaginative and technical tour de force.I've not seen the Cirque show, but hearing 'Love' makes me want to book a special trip to Vegas to see it.
