"Only getting round to this band in 2019 - pity I missed them at the time. Sinister brought me in and I slightly prefer that at the moment but this is also a superb album. I love the feel and sound of the simple title song which I rate as their best over these two albums." Reply

"This is actually my favorite Hendrix album. The other members provide some great support for Jimi and the way they get the crowd involved is just something so special that you can't get out of the studio albums. This is one of those essential live albums of all time." Reply

"Another fine album from the underrated Alice Coltrane. Great use of sitar, and Pharoah Sanders is in fire as always. Excellent." Reply

"The Deluxe edition of Small Faces' classic 1968 album "Ogden's Not Gone Flake" is first of all a scoop because of the new remastered sound. Both the mono and the stereo versions sound great. CD 2 is a collection of alternate/early takes and a few outtakes; most of it fine stuff, but also slightly..." Reply

"One of my favourite albums of all time, particularly the bird chorus composition which forms the 2nd cd disk. Kate always offers up something special to listen to." Reply

"This album is much more stripped back yet more 'electronic' sounding in places and the synthesizer was yet to appear on a Queen album. The first two tracks have been played to death but there are some lesser known gems hidden on this album. I particularly like 'It's Late' which provides some sear..." Reply

"Pretty brave of Wilco to release a double album that marked a change in musical style AND goes where Jackson Browne's Running On Empty had dared to tread. And they did a pretty good job of it." Reply

"People usually hails Neil's late 60s-early 70s material at his best but the brutal and raw emotion in his ditch trilogy years and this album in particular ar far more intense, his lyrics are sadder and tougher than ever and his music epithomizes wht he was, is and will be. The power of his guitar..." Reply
