"A good pop record from an artist that deserves more recognition than he received in his heyday. Nice to see Mr. Winwood bank some cash." Reply
"On the group's sixth album Ten Years After are trying to renew their sound and approach - primarily with spacey intros and outros and a more widespread use of the acoustic guitar. Generally, though, it is the familiar formula: a little bit of blues, a little bit rock 'n roll and a couple ballads...." [+] Reply

"I think this is The Pretty Things best album, alongside "SF Sorrow". This is a concept album of sorts, it's the anti-Sgt. Pepper. It has a dark pessimistic mood that incapsulates the late sixties decadence of inner cities." Reply
"An overlooked great album by Bolan better than *The Slider" and lies 2nd to Electric Warrior for consistency . None of the tracks were released as singles an unusual event back then. Overall the album holds together as a complete unit with Bolan introducing a more soulful sound." Reply

"The presidential election of Barak Obama was meant to have heralded in a new era for America, and Bruce Springsteen was ready to celebrate with his new album. Working on a dream, came in lightning quick time, just 15 months after springsteen's last record, magic. Working, is lyrically everything ..." [+] Reply
"(Really cool mix of Soul, R&B, Gospel, Blues, Hip Hop, Neo-Soul, Jazz etc etc. And maybe most remarkable is how Batiste and Co. are able to make these varied sounds and textures meld into a coherent album. Not just a coherent album, but a joyous, celebratory, powerful, bright, inspiring album. On..." [+] Reply

"One of the great exits, and one of the great album sides. Side One goes on way too long, but Side Two is perfect. Great live version of the blues standard, "Sitting On Top of the World," followed by the Clapton/Harrison gem, "Badge," followed by two psychedelic masterpieces, "Doing That Scrapyard..." [+] Reply
"This album is a perfect example of Kendrick pushing the genre forward. Q honestly did a great job here." Reply
