"Even better than 'London 0 Hull 4', this has, among many other upbeat pop gems, the best song about public school (it's a tie with 'The Headmaster Ritual' really) cruelty: 'Bow Down'. A must-listen." Reply

"If you like the 60s San Francisco sound (Jefferson Airplane) you'll probably like this album. Ethereal folk music, heavy on the violin. Listen to the song White Bird on youtube." Reply

"Nothing particularly special here, but if you're looking to groove to some old school soul, this is a go to album. Imo some of the tracks felt a little empty, but overall it was decent. 7/10 Fav Tracks: Brown Skin Girl, Shine, Twistin' & Groovin', River" Reply
"Dinosaur Jr. were doing the alternative rock thing way back in the 80s, before the Seattle grunge scene exploded. Guitarist/singer J Mascis is widely credited with re-introducing the guitar solo to indie rock, and there's plenty of nice hooks (and solos!) on Farm. I don't know if it's because it ..." [+] Reply

"If you're a Ramones fan or a fan of 70's punk this is a no brainer. Great 1977 New Years Eve show at the height of the Ramones power. Original 4 Johnny Joey Tommy and Dee Dee.

"First half is pretty corny IMO. I get that Joey didn't want his message to get lost in translation but I feel like I'm getting beat over the head. Lyrically the second half is a lot better but the production is lacking compared to the first half. I wish Joey mixed his modern sound with his 90s so..." [+] Reply

"The album that brought Aerosmith back into the big league. Permanent vacation, is a thoroughly enjoyable rock'n'roll record. Obviously designed to be successful, it saw the band employing professional songwriters, such as Desmond Child, to work alongside them to bring a more commercial edge to th..." [+] Reply
