"Damn, this is quite the religious album. Jay Electronica and Jay-Z rapping a lot about being Black Israelites. The production is amazing beginning to end, but the lyrics aren't always the most engaging. Highlight for me is Shiny Suit Theory."  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

"Although some parts of this feel too much like an over-dramatic rock opera, overall this was a breath of fresh air. Picked it up on recommendation from a friend and I was VERY pleasantly surprised. Since I've had to lend it out to a few people, even :)"  Reply

"This is a pretty underrated album, this album grew on me quickly and there are many tracks here I found to be overlooked such as Liar, Chemical, Everyone Everywhere, Young Offender, etc. The singles are great too. I don't know how people aren't paying attention to this album."  Reply

"Very laid back acoustic sort of album. It wouldn't come as a surprise if this was recorded on a cold and grey beach like the one on the album cover. Boat Behind and Peacetime Resistance are both great but most of the others sound a bit too plain for me."  Reply

"This is the proof that they are consistent songwriter. Unlike many other band, they just keep making good songs. Hope they could continue to write and play songs Til the day I die."  Reply

"A mixed bag that seems to be an attempt to appeal to both fans of Clapton's blues based stuff and his pop/adult contemporary stuff. It will probably satisfy neither, but the first half at least is listenable enough. Better versions of songs from this album appear on Unplugged and 24 Nights."  Reply

"A step up from his 2 previous albums both released in 1974 (Sweet Exorcist & Got to Find A Way) There's No Place .... explores the social divide in the U.S.A. in the 50's as well as gun violence (Billy Jack) and love (So In Love) one of Curtis's best love songs. Other great songs are Blue Monday ..."  [+]  Reply

"If you could have just one Loreena McKennitt album, this should probably be it. It shows her in all her strengths including singing, composing and musical scholarship. It has some diversity and is a pleasure to listen to throughout."  Reply
