"Possibly overshadowed by the Prog masterpiece with it's iconic cover, In The Land of the Grey and Pink', this album is equally brilliant yet quite different. One of those where you discover more with each listen. Side 2 (vinyl) is epic!"  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

"“Ooh Rap I Ya” fills every part of the ear. The production is broad and encompassing. It takes the lushness of vaporwave and pulls it over the weight of 90’s dance.

"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."  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
