"Screaming trees should of been bigger. Mark Lanegan is one of the finest singers with his melodic grunge rock vocals (even though I wouldn't call this grunge at all). This is a hidden gem from that era." Reply

"Caribou has always been a slow burner for me. 'Our Love' took me a year or two to fully appreciate (and now is on my short list for best albums of the decade). I've gone through 'Suddenly' at least 3 times now, and have yet to notice a track I don't like. Bottom line, Caribou is keeping up with t..." [+] Reply

"With Monk jazz changed for ever. This strange and dear bear was another world himself. Without any doubt, the best composer (alongside with Ellington) of history of jazz. Listen anywhere of his tunes: "Blue Monk", "Round About Midnight", "Epistrophy", "Crepuscule with Nellie", "Bemsha Swing", "Ru..." [+] Reply

"On the group's third album from 1975 Abba took a huge musical leap upward compared to their first two albums, which had been somewhat uneven, though without in any way being weak. With two of the group's biggest and most timeless hits "Mama Mia" and "SOS" is the album can only be a five star rele..." [+] Reply

"A roller coaster ride through sound. There are a few dark moments, but the journey is an uplifting one which will send shivers down your spine. Best thrills include the majestic opener Cascade, the intense and haunting Obsession and the jazzy straightjacket strut of Cocoon. This is the Banshees a..." [+] Reply

"This would have been a much better EP. I lost total interest after Born to Be Wild. The first 5 songs were an ok thing though." Reply

"BS&T loses their leader, Al Kooper, and comes back with one of the best records of the 60s. Has their two biggest hits, "Spinning Wheel" and "You've Made Me So Very Happy," along with classics like the standard, "God Bless the Child," and Laura Nyro's "And When I Die." The band's later efforts wo..." [+] Reply

"Unfairly labelled as a disappointing follow-up to the critically acclaimed debut, A Weekend in the city is actually close to being a flawless concept album. From coke in dirty night club toilets; playing to rooms full of bored hipsters; the desire for weekend escapism- the essence of inner-city l..." [+] Reply

"Very strong follow-up to Leftoverture, high-energy prog/hard rock all the way through save for the wonderful gentleness of Dust in the Wind. Definitely a must-listen album for prog enthusiasts like its predecessor." Reply
