"'Stick With Me Baby', 'Lucille' and 'Cathy's Clown' are some highlights here. My personal favorite is their original version of 'Love Hurts', recorded about a decade before Nazareth popularized it with their fantastic cover. Overall, a great album and one of my favourites from the Everly Brothers."  Reply

"What a gorgeous album! An excellent way to start of Hackett's solo career with a concept album based on tarot cards. The electric guitars sound awesome, but really this album is about the acoustic guitar, and the flutes. All the songs are great, but the best is "Shadow of the Hierophant" which is..."  [+]  Reply

"The music is witty, poppy and danceable. Hot chip bring their own style with these immediately-infectious tunes. i had a good inclination this new album would blow that one away upon hearing lead single "ready for the floor", which just builds with brilliance.

"George Harrison's third best behind All Things Must Pass and Brainwashed. This album has some great balladry, excellent melodies and just shows what Harrison was all about."  Reply
