Strange Hobby

Mastered at Abbey Road Studios, England, "Strange Hobby" was a complete mystery. Nowhere on the CD could you find out who the artist behind this release was. Evetually it was discovered that Arjen Lucassen (Ayreon, Star One, Ambeon, Stream Of Passion, Bodine, Vengance) recorded it in the time between finishing the second Ayreon album "Actual Fantasy" and the release date of this second Ayreon CD.

Arjen just couldn't sit still, and decided to record a number of songs from the 60s that influenced him throughout his career.
