"A great blend of fun, playful tunes along with much more sobering, mature work. Ben Folds is much more cohesive here than on his other albums, bringing pop and much more rock to the album overall.

"Without any doubt one of best Mingu's albums. Incendiary and lyrical, volcanic and moody, graceful and giant. Like Mingus, Mingus, Mingus, Mingus." Reply

"Despite its incompletion, 'Sketches of My Sweetheart the Drunk' is a very worthy follow-up to 'Grace'. It's bold, daring, and yet somehow, still maintains that wonderful, beautiful quality that was always a constant throughout his music. Tim, his father, would've been very proud." Reply

"I can't help but grow tired of the Eastern Europe fanfare feel after the first half. Shame though, guy sure can write a song, has a good voice, and a 00s classic in "Nantes". Good album, very good if you're more partial to the stylistic treatment than I am." Reply

"Listening to this again and it just gets better every time. The whole album is driven by Staley's voice, which I really enjoy, so if you're not a fan you might be left cold. But it's a very driving album that rivals anything Alice in Chains (and Pearl Jam, for that matter) ever did. River of Dece..." [+] Reply

"One of my favourite albums of all time. This 19 song epic has grown better with time, it is now considered their best (Steve McQueen a close 2nd). The stand out tracks being Lookin For Atlantis, We Let The Stars Go, Wild Hoses, Doo Wop In Harlem & Carnival 2000. Hear how Paddy McAloon's lyrics/so..." [+] Reply

"The title track is honestly one of the best songs I've ever heard. Fantastic album to go along with it, but I could listen to that song forever." Reply
