"Probably the most light hearted album I've ever heard, I bet if The Strokes came out before this people would think of this as a parody album! That said its pretty good. Just straight up rock and roll with no pretense, classic post-punk revival." Reply

"I suppose that with a compilation like this you'll get some unnecessary tracks, such as sitting through 3 takes of "Communication Breakdown", but you should come to this looking for those brief moments where your ear is surprised. Plenty of them to be found here, plus you get "Traveling Riverside..." [+] Reply
"It becomes obvious with the first track "What You Need" that INXS was shooting for international superstardom with Listen Like Thieves. "What You Need" was after all their first American Top 10 Hit in 1986, peaking at #6 on the Billboard charts. The title track and "Kiss The Dirt (Falling Down th..." [+] Reply

"In a 1969 interview with Jimi Hendrix he was asked what it felt like to be the greatest guitarist in the world. Jimi replied with "I dunno, ask Rory Gallagher." This is Rory's greatest live and greatest overall album. The man believed in every note he played. Easily one of the most underrated gui..." [+] Reply

"I remember I was disappointed when I listened to it for the first time - although (or because) I liked the earlier albums very much. This one grew on me almost everytime I listened to it, and pretty soon it became my favourite Doves album. It is a pity that it still is the last record they released." [+] Reply

"A really underrated album. The entire thing from start to finish is just a masterpiece. Like originally the only album I had heard from him was Poses, then someone referred me to Want One and I had really no idea how talented this man really is." Reply

"A well underrated record. Music from Big pink and the self titled album quite rightly get the recognition they deserve but, Northern lights-Southern cross, like, Stage fright, is an excellent record. Forbidden fruit, Acadian driftwood, and especially, It makes no difference, are as good as anythi..." [+] Reply
