"It seems kooky to include a greatest hits in your top records. But this is the 1st record I recall hearing. I was 3. I put my ear right close the speakers. I remember the woofers pounding. The depth of sound was overwhelming. It opened me up to a life long love of music."  Reply

"Any artist should learn from this master on how to improvise if you forget lines. Listen to How High the Moon, but more so Mack the Knife - she never fails to make me smile with this track."  Reply

"have to say, if anything Dream Theater is incredibly talented. More specifically, John Petrucci is incredibly talented.

"This collection of mostly covers features Yo La Tengo's quiet side, re-creating them as folk aficionados capable of faithfully performing not only their own material but also pitch-perfect interpretations of classics such as Flamin' Groovies' "You Tore Me Down" and John Cale's "Andalucia."

"This is an underrated album on this site. Writer's Block is by far the best album from Peter Bjorn & John. The sounds on this album are amazing, so eclectic but in a subtle way. It takes some detailed listening in order to hear all of the subtle instrumentation and layering going down on this alb..."  [+]  Reply
