"Another classic album from Fairport Convention. This is beautiful folk/rock music with both Sandy Denny and Richard Thompson on top form. Fotheringay, I'll keep it with mine, she moves through the fair, and, meet on the ledge, are the picks for me. Great."  Reply

"I think the basement jaxx invented the house/club/IDM album replete with guest appearances and made it work like nobody before them. On royksopp's melody a.m. debut, they were at the opposite end of the spectrum, self-styling a textured electro-ambient rich in ideas but with not much energy. In 2..."  [+]  Reply

"The arrangement of this album, musically and production-wise is masterful. This is THE penultimate break-up record, in my honest opinion. There's musical themes woven throughout, and the emotional journey of Matt's relationship and it's demise are made relatable amd easy to invest in as a listener."  Reply

"I am referring to the single disc version here. Marillion managed to hit the jackpot with the collection of songs. Briliant start and end tracks filled with wonderful shorter tracks. This is the last of the Marillion classics"  Reply

"This was the second album from Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps. It was released in 1957, four months after its predecessor, “Bluejean Bop”. Five tracks are originals written by Vincent and guitarist Cliff Gallup and Tex Davis. These are pretty typical early Vincent rockers, with “Red Blue Jeans an..."  [+]  Reply

"Disappointing and an album I’ll never listen to ever again, F ing In The Bush’s and Go Let It Out are ok the rest of the album is lame. This was where Oasis lost me as I knew they were to never return to the glory of their first 2 albums . I think even Oasis knew at this point it was the beginnin..."  [+]  Reply

"Why he didn't release this sooner will always be a mystery to me. It's kind of a masterpiece. Separate Ways, the title track, and White Line are great. Florida is fine, but it sticks out like a sore thumb on an album like this."  Reply
