"A very fresh and active sounding album. The guitar work is fantastic, the singing is emotional and powerful and the songwriting is extremely original. Only complaints being it gets a bit samey, but we'll see if it gets better with each listen." Reply

"This is Zappa and the original Mothers' last album (recorded over the same period of Weasels Ripped My Flesh). This masterpiece is a long instrumental ride through the lands of fantasy that does not attempt a definitive system, but finds instead spontaneity and grace of true genius. The centerpie..."

"I absolutely adore the production on this album; the industrial noise has very limited variety in terms of tone but is incredibly hard hitting. There are tracks where it drags on a little too long, but for me the noise never overstays it's welcome. The rapping is a little underwhelming and the ly..." [+] Reply

Not just a coherent album, but a joyous, celebratory, powerful, bright, inspiring album. On..." [+] Reply

"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
""I Know I'm Funny Haha" shows Faye Webster solidifying her sound. Faye has created this blend of country guitars and light R&B vocals that set her apart from the indistinct singer song writer norm. "Cheers" in particular has a fantastic guitar breakdown at the end. The contrast is the song writin..." [+] Reply
