"One of The greatest jazz albums. An absolute masterpiece. It's right there with Moncur's Evolution, Mclean's Destination Out, Miles Smiles, Kind of Blue. If you are dabbling in postbop, and are looking to strike it rich on album satisfaction, you won't be disappointed." Reply

"Too much water. Never enough. Except on the tracks that don't quite have as much water, but Ichiko probably has the best vocal chops for 2020 singer/songwriters, by an ocean-wide margin." Reply

"I just want to say that the third part of this, Cantabile semplice, is one of the best pieces of music that I have heard." Reply
"Lovely soul album from Al Green. The timeless title track is absolutely beautiful and there's plenty of other strong songs on this great record. He made some fine albums in the seventies. This is one of them." Reply

"Im surprised twenty one pilots could make an album as great as this to be honest, they have matured a lot musically since there early more mainstream stuff. The production is very consistent from start to finish and some of the ideas on here are really interesting and work so well, such as the so..." [+] Reply
"Wrecking ball is Bruce springsteen's angry response to the aftermath of hurricane Katrina and the recession that had hit the U.S. and the rest of the world. Springsteen really has a bee in his bonnet, especially on the sarcastic opening track, we take care of our own, reminiscent of, born in the ..." [+] Reply

"One of the most underrated female artists ever. Judee Sill is sadly no longer with us, but she released two excellent solo records that are criminally overlooked. Featuring stunning songs such, Jesus was a crossmaker, my man on love, and, crayon angels, this album is up there with what Joni Mitch..." [+] Reply

"Oh, I love that guitar and bass aesthetic...what a sleepy, dream atmosphere. London’s voice lilting over top is divine. Nice studio technique shown here too, such as the vocals in the codas to both “Cry Me A River” and “I Love You”." Reply

"You feel like you've just caught a taxi to fulfill your next mundane task at hand with your dysfunctional relationship with life; but your cab driver is an eccentric Japanese man and he sends you to space and takes you on a 50 minute tour exploring the universe. It's the dreamiest and most beauti..." [+] Reply

"A pretty solid album. The only real fault with it is the order of the songs. The opening 3 tracks are all so dynamite that everything that comes after seems a bit anti-climatic. I think opening with The Core, and THEN cocaine (with Lay Down Sally somewhere in the middle) would give the album a co..." [+] Reply
