"The first cinematic and neon lit masterpiece from the Blue Nile. Like it's successor, hats, it's that perfect late night album, at the time between midnight and dawn. Romantic and lovely." Reply

"Great psychedelic almost instrumental album. Parts of the music on side two could fit a cowboy movie, given the drama created between the guitar and rhythm section. Perhaps this was intended looking at the rear off the sleeve artwork and text. It offers something different to a lot of the psyched..." [+] Reply

"My first exposure to Doves was this album. I had heard about The Last Broadcast, but my local record store only had this one in stock. The experience was pretty predictable. Mind-blown. Totally floored. Went online and ordered their discography. I'm always impressed by how many layers they can ca..." [+] Reply

"One of those John Coltrane albums that's either genius or nonsense, depending on what mood I'm in. It sometimes works for me, other times it just annoys and frustrates me. Am i trying to like it? Do I like it? Or do I hate it? I don't know, I really don't know." Reply

"This is a pretty cool album, the first three parts especially. The last two kinda drag on a bit. But part one is awesome and sludgy, and part two has some really fun guitar work a bit reminiscent of Jimi Hendrix. Part three is a pretty cool, and more straightforward song, with vocals. Overall, a ..." [+] Reply

"One of the most important albums of American music ever made. Woody is the great American trubador and "Dust Bowl Ballads" is a kind a musical narrative of the Great Depression that is the equal to Stienbeck's "Grapes of Wrath" for gritty realism. Woody's influence on the music Bob Dylan, the Byr..." [+] Reply
