Neal Morse (The Neal Morse Band, Spock's Beard, Transatlantic, Flying Colors) has put out a free compilation album of hope-themed songs as a contribution to the current times. I have not listened to all of it but what I have heard so far is live, acoustic takes of Morse songs, and quite good. If you know Morse's stuff there are some nice different takes on songs. If not, this is not exactly representative of his usually proggier music, but it's a free download at his site.
I’ve tried to interject elements of hope in my music for as far back as I
can remember, so we have made a special album of songs from my entire
catalog, accenting the uplifting and affirming, to help you navigate
these unchartered waters with peace and blessed assurance... My deepest desire is that you will find something in these songs — a
word, a phrase, a concept — that you can latch onto and will help you
and your family through this season.
@Lowlife I played that Matsuli compilation last night...2 very enjoyable hours long
Nine Inch Nails have posted two free albums for their fans, which is pretty a nice thing to do. https://www.nin.com/ Downloads are delayed due to demand, but streaming link is here: https://nin.lnk.to/GhostsYT

Thanks, Doofy! I was able to download the albums--didn't work at first, so I tried the old trick of clicking the link but then waiting to actually hit save for about 5 minutes (I have my browser set to pop up a dialog box asking me where I want to save something, rather than automatically saving it in my download folder), and then when I finally clicked "save" it downloaded right away. YMMV.

Thanks from me too. I tried again several times this morning but this time revisiting the Email confirmation worked. So happy not to stare at that rolling ball waiting for Spotify to do something.
The Uncanny Times started as a response to the unfolding Corona Virus
crisis. Seeing so many people around the world losing jobs over recent
weeks, and generally being placed in extremely precarious financial
situations has been difficult and we thought it would be good to give
some new music to the world and make it available to anyone regardless
of their ability to pay.
We ask that you pay nothing for the download of this album, however if
you are able to give something, the artists have contributed a list of
charities who are doing good work in their areas through this crisis, so
we suggest you give what you might have paid for this download directly
to one of the following charities:

@bremble - thanks for this link, excellent! For fans of King Crimson (obviously); the board mix is very nice. Poke around for several other free/NYOP bootlegs, they ahve a couple on the regular Stick Man bandcamp page.
For a few years now, Ostrich von Nipple has often said he has been
“down the rabbit hole.” Why? What does it mean? Although more will be
revealed in time, I can tell you now that it has been a period of vast
experimentation, exploitation, and exploration. Indulging every
curiosity to see where it leads. Following a seductive inner voice.
Losing oneself in a lifetime of dreams. Head down, letting go, when
suddenly it is time to come up for air. Imagine popping your head above
ground only to be told to stay home and keep your social distance!
Ironic.
After sorting through the mass of “rabbit hole” material, some
projects survived, and some were simply let go. Ultimately, “ostrich
von nipple sings some for the kiddies”, “ostrich von nipple in
wonderland”, and “ostrich von nipple rocks through the ages” were left
at the sacrificial altar. This small collection of “cover tunes” are
all that remain.

Well, these are free, and they are from archives.org, but...as much as I keep trying my best not to never do wrong, I'm pretty sure these are considered ethically wrong to download. I've been exploring The High Fidelity Emporium to add to or replace some vinyl and recently discovered some recent releases. Most of the albums have wrong album titles, album covers that don't match the contents & usually with a track name as the listing. I forgot to bookmark the pages of what I've downloaded but if you don't mind some minor editing and are OK with downloading something that an artist isn't getting paid for, there's lots of exploring to do. Most recently I found Bob Dylan's Rough And Rowdy Ways. Other downloads include -Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, Camel, Rain, Compass, Foghat, Boogie Down Productions....
