"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

"KISS were tucked away in my past and I’ve just recently decided to play one KISS album per day from their first to last. I have certainly moved on from their music but to give credit where it’s due this album is actually better than I remember it. I had rated it a 65 based on memory, knowing that..."  [+]  Reply

"A good album by the great Brazilian composer and masterful lyricist, marred by a few less exciting tracks, especially on the B side (although all of them are sophisticated and classy). Highlights are "O Que Será? (À Flor da Terra)" (with Milton Nascimento, who would record another version of this..."  [+]  Reply

"Half of this album contain big top 20 hits, "True"(1), "Gold"(2), "Lifeline"(7) and "Communication"(12), yet "Pleasure" is an outstanding track and together with the remainig three tracks, there is no filler, only killer tunes."  Reply

"Mmmh. It's a pretty good album, I don't deny it. It's nothing to be really excited about, though. Just nice rock 'n' roll in The Animals' style.
