"Delightful, faultless beauty (ok, apart from Gary Duncan missing the high note in The Fool) but maybe the most elegant album in Rock history. San Francisco truely must have been a very beautiful place to be." Reply

"I like this record, it truly is a fusion of rock and jazz. Great guitar work, interesting melodies. Sounds a bit thin, would love to hear a remastered version of this. Some of the harmony can be a bit too root centered at times and there are not enough guitar bends, making the record sound stuck ..." [+] Reply
"Excellent chamber pop album. Very glad I listened and planning to dig through more of Klo Pelgag's discography. Highly recommend checking it out, overall I feel the album improves the further down the track list you go, with the highlight being "La maison jaune" near the end" Reply

"Her best record by far in my opinion, Adele takes a few risks that really pay off, especially with the more jazz influenced sounds. Her songwriting skills have really sharpened on here too, with an album that sounds a lot less formulaic than perhaps what I was expecting. Definitely an improvement..." [+] Reply

"Yeah, this album is awesome. I was about to buy it, but it is about $20. That's a lot of money for a disk. That's how much people like this album. it's just that good. it is still a high price(for a CD) after being released about 20 years ago. I actually ended up buying it today. It's a great album."

"The New Pornographers have largely recaptured the magic of their first 3 albums, pumping multiple hooks into the majority of these abnormal pop/rock tracks. The poppiest tracks still mostly emanate from AC, the loveliest from Neko and the strangest from Bejar (harmonica solo!), but the tracks are..." [+] Reply

"The Stones pretty much fell off the cliff with this one. Sure, they would put out a few more bad albums in the coming decades, but this was when we still had hope for them." Reply

"These tracks are better listened to in isolation (not you personally, independent of each other I mean) as listening to the whole album in one go can become a little samey. Some cracking tracks on their follow up Welcome to the North too. perhaps a band that never quite became the big noise this ..." [+] Reply
