"When I was but a wee bit of a lad, THIS is what I dreamed Country music sounded like. Austere, plaintive & naked coupled with a crazed spiritual fervor. You can imagine my horror when I found out it was nothing more than a NEUTERED version of the hard rock of my junior high school years. Luckily ..." [+] Reply
"We Shins fans all wait for the next impeccable Chutes Too Narrow-type album release to come from Mercer and are ultimately left a bit disappointed because of it. Such expectation is completely unreasonable because I believe Chutes is in the best cluster of albums ever made. I have chosen to liste..." [+] Reply

"Shortlisted for R&B albums of the year at the 1997 Grammys. The winner was Words by Tony Rich" Reply
""Upstairs at Eric's" is one of the best albums of all time, but this one is outstanding as well. The only track I don't like that much is "Happy People", which - regardless of the lyrics - is not really that great of a song.

"This album is a rare gem. All the songs are sublime.

The music is grand, with big orchestration,..." [+] Reply

"The Move were one of the most talented bands of the British pop-psych-era in the late 1960's.

"A lovely album, probably Sandy Denny's best. Beautiful vocals and great songs in, it'll take a long time, bushes and briars, and Bob Dylan's, tomorrow is a long time. Classic record." Reply
"Picked this up in a charity shop for a quid - what a pleasantly surprising bargain that turned out to be. Tight, tasteful, memorable and punchy, this is electronic pop music par excellence." Reply
