"A fantastic album that cleverly mixes a number of genres - to come up with something I like to call 'Alternative Country Folk'. Favourite Track is 'Borderline'"  Reply

"On Reflection, Time To Kill and His Last Voyage are among my favorite GG songs. Those three songs are all amazing and all very different from one another.

"Warm, open-hearted, and playful...I don't know if Rahsaan was like that, but he must have been; his music is. It's imaginative and care-free, not avant-garde or cutting edge.

"'On The Line' tells the chronological tale in song of heartbreak , with ultimate rebirth and happiness and everything that happens in between. It is also worth noting JL lost her mother to liver cancer whilst writing this album which certainly impacted the lyrics Musically it's an all star cast f..."  [+]  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

"Being an Australian I’m probably more than a little biased in saying Courtney Barnett is a national treasure & proof that if someone can go from their bedroom in Preston Melbourne to global stardom and appearing on Ellen within a short few years, well, anyone can And despite the middling critical..."  [+]  Reply

"Definitely an artist I want to throw into rotation more. Absolutely love Rounds so I was excited for more Four Tet albums. Pause is still taking me a while to get into, it's super ambient compared to Rounds which is fine but I'm rarely in the mood for something that ambient. With that being said ..."  [+]  Reply
