Records & Releases / release record
Ears Wide Open
Franklin, Clover & Seales · Ears Wide Open is the ledger’s reference record: a clear example of how a release, a session source and a listening path can sit on one page without pretending to own the music.

A commissioned documentary still for the ledger; it is not archive cover art.
What the record supports
Ears Wide Open is recorded here as a navigable object: a title, a credited artist, a release trail and a set of links that help a reader check the next detail. The page does not reproduce archived label copy, artwork or audio. Where a source is stronger for identity than for date or personnel, that boundary stays visible.
The useful next step is the full Session Ledger, where this record can be compared with related titles. Readers interested in the people behind the credit can also move through the musicians index or Records & Releases listening routes.
