"It only took me two and a half spins to really get into this album. For people expecting Cross 2.0, you're going to be let down a little, but for people who are looking for a little change from their artists after a four year layover, I think this will be right up your alley. Justice breaks out t..." [+] Reply

"Such a solid album that really epitomizes underrated and unfairly forgotten. A lot of really catchy, yet well done songs in a variety of styles, with great harmonies, strong lead vocals and super-smart structure. Strong throughout." Reply

"A solid debut - slightly above average overall. It's pretty consistent, but there are only a few "wow" moments. The first three songs are particularly good, and The Killing Hand and Light Fuse and Get Away show flashes. Only a Matter of Time only got worse with age - it's not a good live song." Reply
"The first half is the studio album of original material, the second, a live labum of olldies. The first is as good as anything she's done, and stands with From the choirgirl hotel as a high point in her career." Reply

"This album is let down by its inconsistency , there are 3-4 good tracks & plenty of average ones and couple that just don’t work at all This release doesn’t quite hit the mark but there’s enough here for me to keep an eye on this group for future releases, I recon there is a great album just arou..."

"I think the last couple of songs could have been better - but overall the first side was very solid the energy was kept up through most of side two. One of her best albums." Reply
"Angel Delight was Fairport's follow-up to their master-piece "Full House". Guitarist and songwiter Richard Thompson had left the band before the recordings for the album, but some songs had been written and rehearsed before he left. Thompson is co-writer on two songs and though his personal vocal..." [+] Reply
"Changed the way I hear music. Worth listening to and exposing to more people. Fun, full of energy and possibly has the best drumming I've ever heard." Reply

"What happens when a cynical Vietnam Vet fronts a nihilistic hardcore band. Lee Ving's biting satire rivals even Ginn's about Life in the City in the years before Giulianni and gentrification (for better & worse) made "them safe for me and you". WARNING: This album was completely re-recorded in 20..." [+] Reply
