"1. Before you listen to this album be sure to download the "concept EP" spectrum/14th century by Owen pallett. It is set in the same universe as the concept of this album, and is essentially an extension of its storyline. It really helps you get a better sense of the characters that are involved ..."  [+]  Reply

"The greatest live album ever made in my opinion. This is the recording of Bruce Springsteen's first ever show in the U.K. It's absolutely stunning. You can tell Springsteen is fired up for this, a little nervous even. The wonderful, thunder road, kicks off the show in it's acoustic piano incarnat..."  [+]  Reply

"This album is one of the best surprises I've had in a long time. Being so low-rated, I didn't expect to like it as much as I did. In fact, it might now be my favorite album by Supertramp! (Or it's Crisis, I don't know). It is almost flawless, a very consistent and impressive effort. Don't overloo..."  [+]  Reply

"Great production sound enhancing just meh songs.. Too self-consciously cool to really excite. We know where they got their gritty blues style from and they know that we know. Was there a Kills vs White Stripes fan war back in the day?"  Reply

"This album is one of my top 100 albums and it contains a classic opening salvo of three killer tracks: "Dream All Day", "Solar Sister" and " Flavor of the Month" (with the classic chorus: "The flavor of the month is busy melting in my mouth, getting easier to swallow but harder to spit out")."  Reply

"Hell of an album. I really enjoyed the vocals and metal in this one. It may not "be cool" to sound like this anymore but this Disturbed album is certainly a great capture of the turn of the century new path of metal. OO AH AH AH AH!!"  Reply

"Relatively overlooked in his catalogue, this is one of Coltrane's most meditative and lyrical records. "Wise One" and "Lonnie's Lament" are two of the most beautiful jazz songs ever recorded. I always feel at peace listening to this album."  Reply
