"Essential listening in the "Mott the Hoople" catalogue, and one of the great albums of the seventies. Stand out tracks are "All the Way from Memphis," "Hymn for the Dudes," and "I wish I were Your Mother," however there isn't a weak song on the entire album. Although Mott's LPs "All the Young Dud..."

"The rawness of this album will be a bit of a shock for those who grew up on The Reaper and Burnin' For You. But more so than those hits, this album is what BOC is all about. Overall, this is a very consistent and excellent outing; 8 cuts and not a dog among them." Reply

"I struggle to warm to this one - it feels like they're trying to repeat Thick As A Brick, but don't quite make the mark. It has its flashes, but I don't return to this one as often. The last of their prog-heavy records before they momentarily became poppier, before exploring English folk influences." Reply

"Sometimes an album comes out of nowhere and just steals your heart. You didn’t see it coming. You didn’t expect it. The crush starts off unassumingly enough. But then it grows. It creeps under you skin and forges with your muscles, with your tissues. Its just one of those albums that gets better ..." [+] Reply

"I’ve always been a Walsh fan no matter what band he has played with. This is a great album because of the variety of styles and different elements of the music genre. It’s amazing how some of the songs swing from one side of the rock scale to the other. I consider all nine tracks exceptional with..." [+] Reply
"Contemplative, atmospheric and even haunting at times. It's really hard for me to find the words to describe this album. Definitely my favorite release of this year so far. Favorite tracks: Crimson Tide, It Just Doesn't Happen, foolssong, Cue Synthesizer" Reply

"I do like me some Alt-Country, but not the soppy heartbroken cowboy Alt-Country style ( Ryan Adams ‘Heartbreaker’ excepted, Lyle Lovett, Gillian Welch etc) but rather the hard drinking, bar fighting bad boys Alt-Country style and that is why I love Uncle Tupelo and this album in particular This i..."

"This album is a lot better than people give it credit for... Some of Weller's most beautiful songs in "Ghosts" and "Carnation," and "Town Called Malice" is an all-time classic. There's not really any useless songs on this, and he's trying a lot of new styles, most of which turn out fairly well." Reply
