"Stormbringer is way better than you might expect. Rhythmically there is lots of funk and fewer complex rock elements, but there are many good songs. The instrumentation is solid and Coverdale is more confident. Hughes is a fine player and gives the band a fine base to rock on. This is the FINAL M..." [+] Reply

"This is the album where the comparisons to Zeppelin really started to come out. Little Queen is similar in many ways to Led Zeppelin III with a balance between early metal and acoustic-on-electric styles. Like LZ III, this album includes a galloping metal classic (Zep's Immigrant Song and Heart's..." [+] Reply
"Whenever they slow down and write an Alt-Metal song, it always ends up sounding like a combination of Angel Dust and King for a Day... Fool for a Lifetime. Combine these songs with Ben Weinman's amazing ability to write the most chaotic yet catchy Mathcore songs to exist, and this album really st..." [+] Reply
"Alan Lancaster shines on this one singing 4 of the 8 tunes, the first two tracks being worthy of mention. Not to be outdone Francis Rossi sings 2 very good songs and Rick Parfitt proves that Status Quo isn't all about 3 chord boogie. Not the classic hits of Hello but a better record overall." Reply

"One of the most underrated albums of the 70’s. It’s not a classic like Imagine, but it’s better than most critics made out at the time. I listen to it a lot. No9 Dream is gorgeous. Whatever gets you through the night great fun and Scared a lost classic. Deserves more attention." Reply

"Shortlisted for album of the year at the Grammys in 2005. The winner was Genius Loves Company by Ray Charles & Various Artists" Reply
"A neighbor had this and played it with his windows open, so I heard it in 1964. Then later in college I heard the version he rerecorded because the masters were thought lost. Then they were found, and the version I now have is both takes back to back, and it is amazing-- half a decade apart, and ..." [+] Reply
"A pure unadulterated aural stimulus that incites feelings of being wholly consumed by the diverse stages of a love affair–intensity, passion, hope, despair and all the experiences in between." Reply
