"The ballads on this album get really mushy, especially on the banal "Photograph" ("When it gets hard/You know it can get hard sometimes/ is the only thing that makes us feel alive") and the cliche-riddled "Thinking Out Loud" (Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars), but when Ed wishes to bra..."  [+]  Reply

"The album that got me into the charlatans in a big way. They finally hit their stride with this, a big improvement on the previous realeases, and self titled the album as a sign of it, somethink not often done on for a 4th album. The 3 albums that followed it were better but this is still a great..."  [+]  Reply

"Strong psychedelic album. Usually not a fan of the sitar sound but they put it to good use here. Head On/Pill is a phenomenal opener, and I also really liked 30 Past 7 and the title track."  Reply

"I was able to find a nice copy of this album recently. This was popularized on KSHE 95 radio back in the day and they still play Pavlov’s Dog from time to time. This is a great listen."  Reply

"The original Tubular Bells is a classic and was even ahead of it's time. But the synths on this are so dated. It somehow sounds even more dated than the original that came out 19 years before it. I do recognize the skill in composing and arranging this album, and I do enjoy the tracks Weightless,..."  [+]  Reply

"Donald Fagen's best album since, the nightfly. It's typical Fagen combing rock, funk and jazz and he delivers his finest set of songs for over thirty years. Weather in my head, memorabilia, and, slinky thing, are all classic Fagen. A well underrated album."  Reply
