"I like this so much better than so much of Bowie's work, it's amazing that this album didn't get more attention from fans. It's bittersweet, and sometimes downright sad, but it's also the best thing on a musical level that Bowie has done since 1992's Buddha of Suburbia. The instrumentation is spa..." [+] Reply

"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

"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
"This album is held together by a similar sound but it's filled with few peaks and many valleys. The are only a couple of songs that are anything special for me, Something Soon and Maud Gone. The music has a more professional sound than the band's previous work but it is apparent that they had run..." [+] Reply

"A great combination of Jazz and Soul, vocalist Anita Baker set the standard for 1980-1990's singers. "Rapture" was deservedly a big hit on the R&B charts and the Pop Charts with glorious singles like "Sweet Love", "No One In The World", and the title cut. A divine listen which bears repeated plays."
