"All shapes of sadness on this album. But as a whole the album seems a bit boring. Good songs: 1. Normal song. Magic mix of voice and acoustic guitar. Dreamy 2. Dark parts. Sentimental and honest with nice image: "dark parts" 3. Hood. The most interesting, has drive. I like the line "U would never..." [+] Reply

"One of the greatest tenor albums ever. One of the greatest jazz albums ever. This is a must for any fan of sax, jazz or hard bop." Reply

"Not as great as the first album but still very good. Great songs as always, but just a little short of that magic that made their first album so special." Reply

"I have no idea what the point of this is, but this has to be one of the best albums I've ever heard. Easily in my top 15." Reply
"Well, this is not what I expected. It's less Hipster-ish and more Lilith Fair/NPR-ish. That's not necessarily a bad thing. But if you're going to travel down that well-trodden road, it would be nice to bring something fresh to it. Baker doesn't. Stylistically, the artist Baker most reminds me of ..." [+] Reply

"Nevermind: the whole damn thing is superb. Another excellent work from Pharoah that nearly rivals Karma. There's no beating Karma, but this is still an essential album. It has a very cool flow to it; always moving and changing and progressing, while always toeing the line between form and formles..." [+] Reply

"THE REAL REASON JOE WALSH JOINED THE EAGLES Everyone thinks it was for the money. Or the copious groupies. Good guesses but … WRONG! It was THIS, their debut album - one of the best mixtures of both hard and soft rock of the entire 70s. I mean I LOVE Joe Walsh and consider his James Gang Rides Ag..." [+] Reply

"It's a very nice album to make you feel good! All of the lyrics aren't very hard to understand and Sarah's vocals are very cute! This is a good album if you want something easy to listen to, are a fan of J-Pop and nothing to challenging to think about." Reply
"This superbly orchestrated album is full of imposing and intense arrangements that merge Slavic-style hymns, Gregorian liturgy, Celtic folk music, Tibetan chants and Renaissance Madrigals. The stately symphonic overtones evoke early King Crimson with a modern twist." Reply
