    As part of Donovan’s digital strategy, the albums will be released in a two week rhythm from today until winter 2010. The album “Open Road” is the start to publish the complete Donovan Archive.
     
    Donovan says: “It was 1970, the amazing decade of the Sixties had just ended and I was ready to just do what I liked. The album was produced in the Morgan Studios in Willesden, North London. Downstairs Paul McCartney was making his first solo album. Here me play Paul‘s Fender Strat on ”Changes“, on this album Open Road.”

    Candy John who once played percussion for Donovan was upgraded to drums, the bass-player Mike Thompson and Mike O’Neil on the keyboard joined the band.

    Donovan explains: “I am very happy this album became such a cult and that it is now available for download”

    The release of The Donovan Archive for digital download is a fantastic chance to also collect rare recordings of Donovan.

    Hey Don, I'm from Brazil and I love your job!

    Here in Brazil, believe it or not, but we do not have access to iTunes nor any decent digital music store.

    So, please, release these albums in CD too!

    Thank you!
