"Very weak ELO-album, but I bought the CD in 86, the re-release in the 00s and in 2014 the LP second hand! I'm paranoid ? Heaven only knows!" Reply

"My favourite Crüe album. It oozes sunset strip sleaze with a musically imperfect band doing their absolute best. It's garage rock/metal with a smattering of punk. Cowbells, razor-like guitar tone, imploring vocals, sparse production. The songs are consistently solid which is rare for the band. I ..." [+] 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..."

"First album from the second quintet, but I can't argue with a previous comment that they are already at their peak...from which they never dropped in their three years together. While Coltrane was moving to the noisy free jazz of Ayler and Ornette etc, Miles and the quintet were keeping it much m..." [+] Reply

"Better than anything coming out of the US IMO. Grime has got a more legit sound in that it doesn't dress itself up to please a mainstream audience. Skepta does, however, ensure that his art is well dressed enough to please due to great production, killer beats and catchy tunes. I love the mix of ..." [+] Reply

"I really like the first 4 albums by OLP, and this one isn't an exception. It might be my least favorite of the 4, but it is still a very good record. "Naveed" is an awesome album and "Clumsy" is a good follow-up, but it might be a little bit too similar to its predecessor to really stand out. But..." [+] Reply
"Good! Stylistically diverse with plenty of stylistic choices. Kinda wears thin by the end, but a lot of fun." Reply

"This album used to confuse me. I didn't get it. I thought it was a compilation of early solo recordings of Simon whilst he was a member of Simon & Garfunkel. Then I finally stopped my nonsense and researched it. Turns out this was made when Simon was taking a bit of a hiatus from his burgeoning a..." [+] Reply
