"FOLK ROCK FOR MARSHALL STACKS Stormcock stands alone. No other folk rock album rocks quite as hard as Stormcock. Any of these four songs could pop up on the classic rock radio station of my youth, and I would never even batted an eye. It is totally of its time (i.e. early 70s) - epic and grandios..." [+] Reply

"'Round About Midnight was the first album by Davis on Columbia, where he would stay for 30 years. It features saxophonist John Coltrane, who had not yet become an icon.

"A heartfelt, passionate album. The songs here each carry serious emotional weight propelled by solid musicianship. There's at least a little something on this record that anyone can relate to" Reply

"They added a lot of new wave and volume to "so jealous" that wasn't there on "if it was you", but the hooks were slightly lost in the process. "The Con" represents the best of their last 2 albums, with all the quick-to-the-point hooks of "if it was you" and the attitude and energy of "so jealous"..." [+] Reply

"Might be one of the best production on an hip hop album ever alongside illmatic, college dropout and MBDTF. The self-titled track is one of my top 10 hip hop song of all time and it's a must listen for every hip hop fan. Top 10 hip hop album of all time, IMO. Rip Guru" Reply

"It's basically a slightly more commercialized and stripped down Wind and Wuthering. By this point, Genesis were becoming stagnant because Rutherford and Banks were basically the only songwriters left, and they had been there since day one: it was probably best that they changed musical directions..."

"This was the perfect follow up to Reign in Blood. They were never going to top the fury of that album, but by taking it down a notch they showed a different side and it worked well." Reply

"I was impressed by this album way more than I thought I would be, jeez this woman has a voice. Feelin Good and I Put a Spell on You are both incredible songs and it's nice to see Simone give a nod to an amazing artist like Brel (she has an admirable accent for an American but as a French-speaking..."
