"Although Wild Wood pretty much set the ball rolling for me in all my musical travels, and Stanley Road has some unquestionably classic songs on, this is the one that gets played most often... the songs are great throughout (not one skipped track!) It's more of a proper rock album than those other..."  [+]  Reply

"I’m a big fan of when artists decide to go into a different direction with their music. I hate it when a band or a musician just stagnates and makes the same album over and over again.

"It's true, it's Merritt's best since '69 Love Songs' with some monster, killer songs on offer that easily rank as his best - even if it includes some of his oddest arrangements to date. There is one big difference though, where '69 Love Songs' favoured a more spartan instrumentation 'Memoir' is a..."  [+]  Reply

"Another mellow laid back album from J.J.Cale. Troubadour, adds brass to his already relaxed grooves. Good songs in, cocaine, travellin' light, and, hey baby. Cool stuff."  Reply

"God willin', is Ray Lamontagne's Americana album. A lovely collection of superb acoustic tracks. Obviously inspired by the Laurel canyon scene of the late sixties/early seventies, it's best cuts include, repo man, new York's killing me, and, this love us over. It was clear though by this time tha..."  [+]  Reply
