"'Mirror Man' is the sound of The Magic Band at it's most deliberately shambolic and free. Long 'live' rambling jams extend the notion of the Blues standard to its limits. Structurally, the Captain game-plays in the Delta tradition but adds theatrically satirical and infantile elements over a crea..." [+] Reply
"Let's face it Hamilton Leithauser has got the sort of name that screams head of the IMF rather than kick-ass rock n roller but ...he manages to get away with it...just. Teaming up with Rostam from Vampire Weekend seems to have been a fortuitous experience with the songs being a more concise and c..." [+] Reply

Ditties reminiscent of Syd Barrett-era Pi..." [+] Reply
""Morph the Cat" from 2006, is Donald Fagen's third solo album.

"I really like this album. First studio album following 'Ace of Spades' was always a hard ask but I think they done a great job. Only a couple of songs on this are sub par but overall it still cracks at the full on pace you'd expect from Motorhead" Reply
"Absolutely underrated, this one. Not to mention the very ill-deserved statement from that one critic at the time - "What is this shit?". This album is anything but that. I was absolutely, and I must say, very pleasantly surprised with its impact on me. Right from the beginning, through to the end..." [+] Reply

"Sounding a little like classic ELO, especially on the second track, "It Ain't Over", the duo brings forth another album of sparkling garage rock/blues and an early favorite for the best album of 2022." Reply
