"I haven't listened to it for years, and by my fanatism of the innovation of Nine Inch Nails' The Downward Spiral came again in the last time, I was expecting that this record hadn't past the stood of time as many of the records I've heard. Suprisingly I was wrong. In this record Richard Patrick p..." [+] Reply
"Comments on the 2010 reissue. It was really positive news that Apple decided to reissue their four Badfinger albums and give them a remastering. The first CD release of "No Dice" dates back to 1992, and although the sound on the old release wasn't bad, this is a clear improvement. The number of b..." [+] Reply
"African style drums and funk at the very forefront with extended Ginger Baker drum solo" Reply
"The album should be credited to "Robert Plant And The Strange Sensation" - a group Plant performed with in 2005 and with which he recorded this album. It is with this ensemble that Plant has put together his most Zeppelinesque post break-up release. Released on Sanctuary Records/Es Paranza Record..." [+] Reply

"Colin Newman's production (and you can definitely tell it's him) can't overcome Gavin Friday's all-over-the-place vocals, but... there are "moments." RIYL The Fall, The Misfits, Alien Sex Fiend, bands of that nature." Reply

"Nice record. Clearly some hard work was put into it. There's loads of good ideas and great musicianship. On the other hand, it can be way too sweet/twee and could use some poison to spice things up. Overall, a solid good record." Reply

"In October 1968, before any Poco or Eagles or even Flying Burrito Brothers albums, and just a mere month after the monumental release of The Byrds' Sweetheart of the Rodeo, Dillard & Clark released this landmark album.

"Flo Mounier is one of the best, most technical drummers ever. And Eric Langolis lays down some surprisingly funky bass lines. A Must listen." Reply
