"Most of these are tracks from the In Through the Out Door sessions. The songs didn’t make the final cut on a less-than-great album for a reason. Zeppelin had very few unreleased gems throughout their career. One exception is “We're Gonna Groove,” a great bluesy rocker from the glory years. Most o..." [+] Reply

"This really should be considered an EP since half the album is just soundtrack background music. But if considered as a whole album it is easily their worst." Reply

"The people rating this album are smoking dope. This is the highest form of high art. The most gifted band in Jazz, performing the most inspired music, live to a recording device. Nothing short of unbelievable what they pulled off here. This is one of a few albums that had every member at top form..." [+] Reply

"An energetic and enjoyable album from Magazine. It's a surprisingly overlooked record, but it's full of good songs. Maybe not as strong as, real life, but decent enough." Reply

"The Moody Blues generally don't do it for me. Maybe I need to be taking something when I listen to their music. But on Seventh Sojourn, they have ditched the poetry and many of the proginess and gone for more of a simple rock album. Every song is great but favourites are: Lost in a World, New Hor..." [+] Reply
"Countless gems are here, This could been really their best album if they arranged and sorted more. Now I'm pretty sure they're the best band on this planet." Reply

"An album that takes it time to build up and allows its song to come to a complete conclusion. It is a very rewarding album and if you give it the time it deserves the music will demonstrate that to you but it does take some patience to be able to see that. The drums are fantastic and provide a ba..." [+] Reply
