"One of the most underrated albums of the 70’s. It’s not a classic like Imagine, but it’s better than most critics made out at the time. I listen to it a lot. No9 Dream is gorgeous. Whatever gets you through the night great fun and Scared a lost classic. Deserves more attention." Reply

"My favorite of the group. So funny and creative, full of youthful joy (they were barely in their 20s) and sophisticated at the same time. Hard to believe it was released during one of the harshest moments of a military dictatorship." Reply
"I think this album have some good and some great songs but is a bit messy! I so appreciate Blondie's versatility and adventure in their sound but this album feels a bit forced for some reason. I think if the order of the track were a bit different,t with a better flow will sound more consistent. ..." [+] Reply

"The pressure was on to produce a classic album following the success of The Grand Illusion. While this album doesn't quite reach the heights of TGI, it is still very worthy of a Top 100 position. The second side of the album is filled with one great track after another. The first side is a bit we..." [+] Reply
"One of the best albums of the year hands down. Between Cams gut punching emotional lyrics, the bands beautiful melodic sound this makes for an amazing album. some cool things happening on this record as well like when Cam sings into his guitar pickups through a guitar pedal on "first left from St..."

"Most people who liked/loved the Beatles and beyond probably lost interest in Paul McCartney somewhere between London Town and McCartney II. This is the album that should bring them back. It was made after McCartney had been working on the Beatles Anthology project and after listening to all those..." [+] Reply

"This was significantly better than I expected. It's pop rap so I expect it to be thoroughly panned by this community which is fine. That's ok. Lil Nas X will keep doing his thing. It's fun, it's honest, it's relatable. There's some childish gambino vibes, there's some chance the rapper vibes, the..." [+] Reply

"Beautiful. I can't believe music critics have listened to the same record. Shame on them. No, I pity them. You've got to be quite a sad person to hate this. Their sudden liking for his official ADZ release was even more shamelessly ridiculous." Reply
