"I don't find it disappointing at all. Nice harmonies, great guitars (shows David Lindley's debut on Pedal Steel) and good vocals by Browne. "These Days", "Our lady of the well" and the title track are brilliant tunes."  Reply

"Best Whitney album, didn't realise how many favourites I had on here although alot of hits were released, 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody' clearly the best track, 'Just the Lonely talking' a personal favourite of mine."  Reply

"With half of the songs here not appearing on any of the bands studio albums Snap is far more than just another best of...it's an essential part of their discography."  Reply

"Amazing album. Travis does not continue with his "Astroworld" Sound, and instead pursues a darker and more experimental sound for his 4th Studio Album. Songs like CIRCUS MAXIMUS and F!EN are very trap, and also masterpieces in their own right. LOST FOREVER with Westside Gunn has an awsome beat, a..."  [+]  Reply

"Great early eighties album by the Moody Blues where they are kind of, just hanging on to prog but also embracing the more 'radio friendly' soft rock approach.

"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
