"INXS were a favourite of mine for a good while, Kick was an album I loved and probably overplayed. X came and went, and then this. I remmeber at the time thinking this was their best offering, and listening again I still do. Quality right through, with maybe the exception of the last track, with ..." [+] Reply

"It's taken a long time for me to form an opinion of this album. I've tried to really like it, and I should. But something has always felt slightly amiss and I couldn't work out what. The opening couple of tracks are great. It's when your three quarters through that you start to lose interest. The..." [+] Reply
"Sure, it's just a live album from The Smiths, and it cannot be considered their best record. Still, it's a great live LP, showing how The Smiths could rock on stage so much more than on album format. Check out their punkish version of "London" for instance." Reply

"Groovy ambient. Shimmering loops. Fluffy and infinitely soothing wall of sound. Immersive and repetitive." Reply
"I dig this, but I have yet to find this is a legit release on Discogs, Amazon, or RYM. Would be interested to find evidence of such. Otherwise my Spotify playlist from her Decca Singles works for me, and great indeed they are." Reply

"Anger, frustration, love, dislocation, suicide, death. These are just a few of the subjects dealt with by this relatively new band on their debut album. The Murder Capital are Irish - this is important. James McGovern sings with an Irish accent and his thick brogue smears a softness and poeticism..." [+] Reply

"Funky as hell. Gil is well known for his lyricism but for me his vocals on here are incredible too. Ranks alongside the stuff they were probably taking influence from like herbie and stevie. One of those that ticks all the boxes that you wonder why you never listened to the bugger before." Reply

"This album is baffling. One minute he offers a solid song like "the boys of summer" or "sunset grill", and the next a batsh|t awful song like the title track or "you're not drinking enough" (oh, the irony!). It's like he was intermittently sniffing markers or 10w40 or somethin'... Anyway, his mis..." [+] Reply
