"Without purpose, this has become one of my favorite bowie albums. Bowie albums take up about 20 spaces in the top 5000. This is at the bottom for bowie by bea, I really wonder about the credibility of this site when so many of his albums are rated higher than this." 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

"The swagger is there, he spits out verbal lashings as viciously as usual, but the beats aren't as memorable or the lyrics as deep as they could be." Reply

"Ryan Adams has returned with an immaculately-produced, strategically-calculated rock album that hits all of the right notes and comes with all of the effectively-timed hooks.

"The last two tracks are definitely worth, but this needs a few more listens. I didn't pay too much attention on the first half. Sunn O))) is insane." Reply

"This is an awesome thrash album. The original mix is dirty but actually adds to the songs. Any thrash or Megadeth fan will enjoy this album. It gets my recommendation for Looking Down The Cross alone." Reply

"Berstein's exuberance is a perfect match for Gershwin's music. "Rhapsody" will take you away, from opening bluesy note and seduces you with all it's jazzy brilliance.
