"Another strong album from one of music's most underrated artists. It's similar to her debut, but the songs are just as strong as they were on her first record with the beautiful, the donor, the standout track. A lovely album."  Reply

"Ambient masterpiece. All done in one take from start to finish with lots of beautiful and varied samples laid over the original music of the KLF. It's just a really interesting album. I, clearly and emphatically, love it from start to finish. Recommended for anyone who likes ambient or electronic..."  [+]  Reply

"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

"If 4 or 5 weak tracks were omitted, we might have an Illmatic pt. 2 here. Still a great album just from the power of the first 8 tracks and the final big single. "I Gave You Power" is some potent writing that never ceases to give the chills. The beat on "The Message" and "Take it in Blood" are al..."  [+]  Reply

"My favorite Grateful Dead standard official relaese. A tad higher than American Beauty & Workingman's. The best "Sugar Magnolia" Ever! Great renditions of most tracks, well played, nice production - overdubs; A great listening experience always! Regular rotation spot this one always has in my wor..."  [+]  Reply

""jackson cannery" is good, but the ben folds five debut album doesn't truly kick in until "philosophy" ("go ahead, you can laugh all you want, but i've got my philosophy"), a sort-of- parody of all the alternative artists taking themselves and their "angst" so serious. They only bring piamo (ben ..."  [+]  Reply
