"Really underrated and misunderstood. Many fans including me were shocked with the straightforward pop/rock, emphasis on pop, of Minutes To Midnight.

"Tracks 1 (reprised at 6), 2, and 5 are especially strong. A nice blend of traditional and modern styles (at least modern by 1964 standards). Still sounds fresh and dynamic all these years later. The middle two tracks are excellent as well, but not up to the level as the bookends. 9.5/10!"  Reply

"McKinley Dixon has come into his own as one of music's most thoughtful emcees. The heart and soul that he puts into his work shines through in every bar, every beat, and every minute detail is stunning. It's a joy to experience his music"  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

"The Cult, similar to other bands like AC/DC, have a signature sound that makes a lot of their songs sound "samey", which can be good or bad, depending on whether you like them or not.
