"Not the best album ever, but better than a lot of the stuff in this genre that's out there. The lesson I learned from this is that every 1 word Goo Goo Dolls song is better than all the multiple word ones. Bizarre, but true." Reply

"Vivian Stanshall's Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band were one of the most comical UK bands of the late 1960s and this was undoubtedly their best LP release. Its satirical side undoubtedly served, to some, as a welcome release for those tiring of the inundation of so much psychedelia and other less meritable..." [+] Reply
"Glad that you enjoyed her, so influential..She reminds me a little of Rickie lee Jones (1979-present) who I am sure that you are familiar with although she is also not on this website.

"The Doors and L.A. Woman are definitely their best albums, but in my opinion, this Live Album should be up there in their Top 3! I was literally tripping listening to this album.

"Criminally underrated. Like if Sonic Youth and My Bloody Valentine had a lovechild." Reply
