Life is the sixth studio album by Bahamian folk musician Exuma, released in 1973 through Kama Sutra Records.
A reviewer for Billboard wrote of the album: "For sheer drive and power one would be hard pressed to meet Exuma's equal." [2] Lynn Van Matre of the Chicago Tribune called Life Exuma's "most 'commercial' album to date", while also noting, "It still manages to be different—a commodity in precious short supply these days." [3]
All tracks are written by Exuma, except where noted.

Keasbey Nights is the debut album by the American ska punk band Catch 22, released on March 24, 1998 by Victory Records.

Kalnoky re-recorded the entire album in 2006 with his new band Streetlight Manifesto in response to Victory's plan to re-release it.

Magic Time is the thirty-first studio album by Van Morrison, released in 2005 by Geffen Records.

Hotcakes is the fourth studio album by American singer-songwriter Carly Simon, released by Elektra Records, on January 11, 1974. Featuring the major hits "Haven't Got Time for the Pain" and "Mockingbird", the latter a duet with her then-husband James Taylor, Hotcakes became one of Simon's biggest selling albums. Her first concept album, the autobiographical songs portray Simon happily married and beginning a family.
Inarticulate Speech of the Heart is the fourteenth studio album by Northern Irish singer-songwriter Van Morrison, released in 1983. Morrison said he arrived at the title from a Shavian saying: "that idea of communicating with as little articulation as possible, at the same time being emotionally articulate". As his last album for Warner Bros. Records, he decided to do an album which had more than the usual complement of instrumental tracks. As he explained in 1984, "Sometimes when I'm playing something, I'm just sort of humming along with it, and that's got a different vibration than an actual song. So the instrumentals just come from trying to get that form of expression, which is not the same as writing a song." Although not expanded upon, of note is that a special thanks is given to L. Ron Hubbard in the liner notes. The reissued and remastered version of the album contains alternative takes of "Cry for Home" and "Inarticulate Speech of the Heart No. 2".
