Last year Damon Albarn recorded 18 tracks with the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra in a west London studio. These sessions resulted in an album called Dr. Dee that Albarn will release on May 7. According to Albarn the album is 18 songs of music inspired by the life of John Dee, mathematician, polymath and adviser to Elizabeth I.
