"One of Sinatra's finest recordings. Songs for young lovers, sees the beginning of his working relationship with Nelson Riddle, and it's a brilliantly enjoyable record with plenty of highlights. They can't take that away from me, someone to watch over me(on the extended twelve track version), a fo..." [More] Reply

You can check out my other top 100 albums (with additional comments) as well. All the songs on this album are marvelous and are a fantastic blend of the supe..." [More] Reply

"I saw Colin Stetson live earlier this year, opening for Godspeed You! Black Emperor. He walked on stage with his bass saxophone and started playing "Judges". It was a memorable moment, having never heard anything like it. I remember being deeply moved, Stetson at times almost screaming into his s..." [More] Reply

"An emotional album. Definitely Grohl’s most ambitious album lyrically. Unfortunately, musically it is very bland and uninteresting. Not much to grab on to melodically. Still has some powerful moments attached to grief and loss." Reply

"After years as a "pop" star and some awful producers, MF and her musicians finds her voice and tear into new territory. Her own compositions hit the mark with their thoughtful lyrics. (Not many people know that the title track was inspired by the Baader Meinhof Gang.) The covers hit the..." [More] Reply

Some songs initially sound like aimless wailing and take time to reveal their melodies, but when they do they're absolutely gorgeous. Indeed the whole album is transcendent.
