"Terrific album I’ve owned since the early 80s. Has concert staples such as Sinner and Diamonds and Rust (Joan Baez cover).

"I like this album very much. What I like the most is its "bluesy" sound and the lyrics of the songs. I find extremely interesting the voice of Ney Matogrosso, because he is actually a man, but I was convinced the first 10 times I heard the record that the singer was a woman. Very unusual voice in..." [+] Reply
"Fallout Boy are harmless. This is fun and catchy. They don't produce lasting art, but for something to listen to on the radio, you could do a lot worse." Reply

"The first track is probably my favorite Kuti song." Reply
"I find it difficult to make an objective judgement on this album as Dear Science is one of my favourite albums and this album suffers in comparison as it is very similar. The songs are still very good but it feels like shaking hands with Bobby Kennedy whilst secrertly wishing it was JFK. There is..." [+] Reply

"This album puts the lie to the popular myth that Chuck Berry's music started to fade away around the same time that the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, et al. emerged covering his stuff. His songwriting is as strong here as ever -- side one is packed with now-familiar fare like "Little Marie" (a seq..." [+] Reply

"If Ashes Are Burning is a big warm blanket, Turn of the Cards is an icicle through the heart. Much colder and more darker in tone than its predecessor, but still delivers all the Renaissance classics through Annie Haslam's beautiful voice, John Tout's atmosphere-setting keyboards, and the string ..."

"If it weren't for this website I never would've discovered this gem! A folk opera sounded really cheesy to me, to be honest, but since I love Tommy, I thought it would be interesting. A shocker. In my opinion this is better then Tommy, better then Quadrophenia and.... dare I say it?... better the..." [+] Reply
