"Lovely background music. I really don't know how much credit to give to these electronica DJs. I have a friend who is working on his Phd in music. He writes brilliant symphonies, is a master of piano, guitar and plays other instruments. Seems to me to require a lot more talent than sampling recor..." [+] Reply

"Excellent album by Jellyfish, grew immensely on me just like Spilt Milk did, though obviously not quite as much. The slick production was definitely a put-off at first, but after loving Spilt Milk I started to realize how good the tunes on Bellybutton were underneath. It's weird how much of this ..." [+] Reply

"The album was recorded in a church. When you listen armed with the knowledge it seems patently obvious, especially the monumental Nothing but Heart; my favourite guitar track this century. The Great Distroyer is still my favourite Low album, it's on my chart. This one will be if I ever get to bei..." [+] Reply
"To me this is brilliant but i love to listen to extended guitar solos and jamming. Satriani has an amazing command of the guitar he always sounds so in control like a jedi master with his craft. Special album from a special player. Possibly the greatest technical guitar player ever." Reply

"Excellent live album. Better than any compilation as the tracks on here are all classic AC/DC. Don't like the cover image but the message is clear, 'if you want blood, you've got it'." Reply

"From track 4 to track 9 you get a great listen, that EP would be 9/10 for me. But the first 3 tracks and the last 2 are definitely not my cup of tea." Reply

"An essence of Punk runs through the veins of Life's A Riot, which may only be 15 minutes long, but manages to be one of the most well packaged and listenable EPs ever made. Simple at heart, but with excellent lyrics and the distinctive, echoey sound of Bragg's rough guitar, it's a perfect late ni..." [+] Reply

"Not quite as strong as my favourite Weather Report albums (Mysterious Traveller, Live in Tokyo, Tale Spinnin'), but not very far behind. Has the same breezy, summery vibe as Tale Spinnin', but isn't quite as successful in its execution, occasionally lapsing into moments that feel a little too for..." [+] Reply
