"Having been lucky enough to see Steve Hackett live several times, the highlight tracks on this album and in live shows are Every Day, Spectral Mornings and Clocks. Love the bass pedals!"  Reply

"How 'We're Only In It For the Money' can be several albums in front of this is beyond me. Yes, this is a bit odd in parts but the musicianship is on the money. Memorable cover art is a bonus to an altogether absorbing album. My wife hates it and threatens to throw it out after me when I put it on!"  Reply

"Just when you think Masterpiece Theatre would be the crowning achievement of Mariana's Trench's career, out came Ever After. Every song is a highlight. No joke.

"The Uli Jon Roth era is timeless! Though the 80's era Scorpions albums sold better, the further we get away from that decade the more these 70's Scorps releases stand out. Taken by force followed by Virgin Killers are masterpeices! Roth is easily one of the mosy underated guitar virtuosos ever."  Reply

"Probably does not sustain the energy of Wrecking Ball (let alone his legendary much earlier work) but.... still has its moments. The re-version of Tom Joad is worth the time. So is some of the rest of this."  Reply
