"No line on the horizon, is U2 getting back to their more arty groove, it's a much more challenging record than most of their Other albums, and is all the better for it.

"I'm suprised to see this album so low ranked compared to the rest of Bob Dylan's. You can find Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) solo guitars like in Sweetheart like you, Dylan's voice as strong as ever on Jokerman and other good songs like I an I or closing ballad Don't fall apart on me tonight. If y..." [+] Reply

"She softly storms in with "things that scare me". When she sings "the world is gonna pay", you believe her. With your attention, her voice carries you to the "valley of the shadow" where deep red bells "ring this tragic gun". I hear emmylou in her voice. The album sounds romantic and almost lustf..."

"Nothing truly bad here, but just far too many generic slow ballads. Tight A$ and Meat City are good rockers off the album and they help with the pacing.

"As somebody from Tallahassee, this album is far better than this town deserves. I guess that's the point of such a terrible couple moving here to drink themselves to death." Reply

"Traffic was one of the greatest band to come out of Britain in the late 1960's. By the time the band recorded their second album, the original line-up was together again after of short period as a 3-piece band. Guitarist and songwriter Dave Mason had more or less walked in and out of the band. Af..." [+] Reply

"Gorgeous album! Anyone with an appreciation of jazz should give it a spin. Be sure to listen to the 10 minute version of Unconditional Love or at least check it out live on YouTube." Reply
