"Another good INXS album, but then they all were from Shabooh Shoobah until Full Moon, Dirty Hearts. Not up to the standard of LLT, SS, The Swing, Kick or WTWYA, but not too far behind. INXS classics in the first three tracks and Bitter Tears, all up there with their best tracks but there are just..."  [+]  Reply

"I’m purely rating this on the songs chosen alone. For new fans this or any version of greatest hits of his will do. The hits are just as good as the album cuts and vice versa, that can’t be said for too many artists."  Reply

"Ok let's address the Elephant in the room .. and of course I'm referring to Track 6 "Rollin With The Flow" . Holy cow it's an awful cover of an equally awful track and who ever ticked it off for inclusion on this album should slap themselves in the face . Hand's down contender for worst 2018 trac..."  [+]  Reply

"No indie dance album will make you groove all the way through it like Music for Men by Gossip. Nearly all the elements are there: The lead vocalist will shake you to the bone. The backing band keeps a steady groove, with just the right amount of synths and studio magic, and a hefty dose of post-p..."  [+]  Reply

"It's a decent debut album, obviously it pales in comparison to the later albums, but everybody has to start somewhere! It's got a stone cold pop classic hit single "Talk Talk" and a couple of really good tunes - "Today" & "Mirror Man" which are worthy of a place on a compilation. It's also got so..."  [+]  Reply

"Lou Reed is a brilliant storyteller. With his graphic depiction of what happens to the characters, you are immediately drawn in. You feel anger, sadness, disgust, helplessness and also dark humour as if you are living it. Lou is simply amazing. The music supports the tale, as it did in Songs for ..."  [+]  Reply

"Hands down, my favorite Roy Orbison album. If it's not his voice that gets you, it's the instrumentation. If it's not the instrumentation, it's the soul. If it ain't the soul, then it's the tear inducing masterpiece that is "Crying". 10/10."  Reply

"The pressure was on to produce a classic album following the success of The Grand Illusion. While this album doesn't quite reach the heights of TGI, it is still very worthy of a Top 100 position. The second side of the album is filled with one great track after another. The first side is a bit we..."  [+]  Reply
