"One of the great Progressive Albums of all time. This was the groups second release, and tremendously polished for 3 young Canadians coming off of a solid incognito debut. The Album tells the story of a Planet somewhere in the cosmos that self destructs ... and leaves behind the loneliest of crea..." [+] Reply
"At the time of its release (1979) I loved the opening track "Tragedy" and many of the songs which followed. In 2022 upon re-listening I was at falsetto-overload before the album reached its quarter mark. The singles still had something that resonated about them, but I had a difficult time listeni..."

"Simple pop that established her brand and one of the most likeable pop acts today. Also, songs on here are the most suited to her voice. Almost like pop punk (but more on the pop side) a la Paramore" Reply
"For all the success that Adam Ant eventually had it's sometimes forgotten that before that success, his band and himself, Adam and the antz, released a new wave/punk classic in, Dirk wears white sox. It's a dark and brooding masterpiece. Car trouble, is excellent, one of Ant's greatest songs. Els..." [+] Reply
"The peak of the Faces' career. "Cindy", "My Fault", "Late Side", "Glad and Sorry", and "Ooh La La" are all excellent songs and come basically one after another. Rod's vocals are fine as ever (on the ones where he bothered to show up), and the talented band show off their skills, albeit in a more ..." [+] Reply

"I'll never be a jazz aficionado...but I do appreciate the more melodic orchestral records by people like Basie. Enjoy the more dynamic numbers and the horns in his one. My fav tracks: Magic, Sweety Cakes, Corner Pocket, April in Paris. I have this as the Best Jazz/Big Band Album of 1957." Reply
"I was beginning to doubt he had another great album in him, but by golly, he's done it again. And I dare say this is an even finer album than his debut. Sweet Saviour and Long Time Waiting are the immediate highlights for me." Reply

"It's fierce and grimy but also quite catchy and has great lyrics." Reply
"I didn't expect Cudi to jump onto trap so eagerly, but it makes much sense - seeing long time fan Travis Scott surpassing him in success - and it complements his rapping style fine. I have to respectfully disagree with OstrichGoat below; I think besides extending the measures of the beats to 8 be..." [+] Reply
