"Mad beat poet fronting a junkyard jazz ensemble that would make Tom Waits proud. Absurdist lyrics at their best. It's too bad they never came close to matching this stunning debut again." Reply
"There's nothing bad here, but it can't hold a candle to the Beatles (of course)." Reply

"This album is an underrated gem, and I suppose was slightly out of place for the time it was released back in 1991. However, really this another classic album from Dire Straits that stands the test of time. Ticket To Heaven is the sleeper tack and timeless track on this album for me." Reply

"In an out of nowhere splash Mckinley Dixon raps about home, urban life, contesting memories of childhood, lost friends and living communities.

"One of my favorite "Return To Forever" album. Not as critically acclaimed as Corea's early releases but the reincarnation of the group as it appears in this album with Al Di Meola, Stanley Clarke and Lenny White being part of it, remains the best one in my opinion." Reply

"The lightning quick follow up to their self titled debut album, Kinda kinks, picks up where that record left off. The LP features ten originals and two poor cover versions(naggin' woman, and, dancing in the street). Of the self penned tracks best are the acoustic, nothin' in the world, and classi..." [+] Reply

"This album has too many songs and distract the listener from the real good songs. Its a good record, but not as great as her previous one. In my opinion the album should be like this: 1. Aura 2. Venus 3. G.U.Y 4. Sex Dreams 5. MANiCURE 6. Do What You Want (Ft Xtina Aguilera Version) 7. Artpop 8. ..." [+] Reply
"Great, jazzy beats throughout the whole album and rapping is very good too." Reply
