"Hearkening back to the quick-moving bebop jazz of the 50s, this record has some swiftness to it! Hancock is great on piano, but I think the highlight of the entire album is Fred Hubbard on trumpet. He threw everything he had at this album and it pretty much all stuck." Reply

"The Who's second album is a much more democratic affair than it's predecessor, my generation. Both Roger Daltrey and even Keith Moon contribute to the songwriting, but unfortunately again like, my generation, it flatters to deceive. There is some good stuff here though, Boris the spider, is one o..." [+] Reply

"Very good album. I relate this to Hurry Up, We're Dreaming from last year. Fairly long, double album, with one colossus song, and a whole bunch of pretty decent ones. Few unnecessary instrumental tracks though, and a bit long. Overall, as of April 7th 2012, probably the best album of the year so ..." [+] Reply

"Lynyrd Skynyrd's second album is an excellent follow up to their brilliant debut. Kicking off with the band's most successful single, sweet home Alabama, a rock classic, the record never lets up. Workin'for MCA, is a great cynical look at the music business, don't ask me no questions, is a strong..." [+] Reply

"This album is like nothing I've ever heard before... every track is just fantastic, not a single filler, with this superbe gloomy atmosphere that permeates every second of it. It's quiet, dark and unpredictable in the way of using so many instruments together and in the way of songs' structure. A..." [+] Reply

"Phenomenal first half of the album, stylized electro pop perfectly executed with a great mix of voices and really interesting arangements, the second half is not as brilliant although it stills has a lot of class..." Reply

"Enjoyably listenable pop. Tons of disco and soul influence on the writing and sound. Just a good modern take on that whole genre. Not innovative or avant garde, just really listenable." Reply

"As much as I love Q-Tip and company, the crew at Tribe might be pansies compared to Pharcyde. Sometimes the lyrics here go a bit too far, but production-wise, I can't think of a better non-Kanye rap album. It's as jazzy as jazz-rap could be." Reply

"I think these American Recordings series should really be sold as Johnny Cash, by Rick Rubin. As Rubin's influence is what made the difference in Cash's career over the last decade of his life. What a gift that was to the music world. Every one of these is superb. While this one isn't my personal..." [+] Reply
