"This was Alice's biggest commercial success in years (and there are few more deserving. This isn't a bad hard rock release but I actually think Hey Stoopid which is simiilar in sound if you like hair metal is superior."  Reply

"Where are you, is another superb Frank Sinatra album. Like, in the wee small hours, it's a late night record of torch ballads and broken hearts. The beautiful title track kicks things off, and it's followed by, the night we called it a day, a stunning song. Frank is on top form here, from the mel..."  [+]  Reply

"Oh my goodness, this album is amazing. It sounds so detached and distant, like floating on the edge of the universe. Yet there is something so beautiful and haunting about how mysterious and indifferent it feels to hear it. Appropriately titled "The Absent Universe". One of the greatest albums ev..."  [+]  Reply

"The first in a series of which, fortunately, there appears to be no indication as yet that it's going to end. In retrospect though, this should have been just one volume, not three.
