Sananda Maitreya had a simple plan for his 13th album: 13 songs, led by guitar, bass and drums. The ominous number didn’t faze him: “Anything that others are irrationally afraid of interests me,” he said recently. “I love black cats. Black cats are bad? No, black cats are fucking cool. The number 13 needs love, too.”
But the project prompted an unprecedented outpouring of love, which started just prior to his 60th birthday and blossomed into the 41-track epic The Pegasus Project: Pegasus and the Swan. Divided into two sides – the first guitar-led, the second more classical – it’s the third part of the “seasons” concept begun by 2017’s Prometheus & Pandora and 2021’s Pandora’s PlayHouse.
