"I can't say enough positive things about this multi-genre music. They were so great, so innovative, so ahead of their time, able to cross over into any genre, and their songs are so, so enduring. Fan of rock ? This stuff rocks. Need the funk? This is funk 101. Wanna dance? How could you not! Need..." [+] Reply

"The ultimate travesty is that this band is remembered for one song (Sex and Candy). When their entire debut is made up of whimsical stories and memorable songs from the wonderful mind of John Wozniak, who is a criminally underrated songwriter. This album deserves multiple listens and respect." Reply
"Good album. Best 10 songs average is 83,3/100 and the album can get good 85/100. Quite uneven album, songs from great to poor, but ok this is interesting at least. Far and away best song is "You'll follow me down" great 95/100, followed by "Lately" and "Secretly" both good 85/100. All other songs..." [+] Reply

"Little Love Affairs is Nanci Griffith's sixth album and her second on major label MCA. The rollicking folk accompaniment from the Philo records was scrapped on the MCA debut "Lone Star State of Mind" in favor for a more Nashville-friendly sound. Despite their best mainstreaming intentions, that r..." [+] Reply
"A little more refined than their debut but in a similar vein. No bad tracks but also no top quality ones either. Still a cracking album." Reply
"Consolidating the work done on the first album, The Vaccines Come Of Age is another collection of dumb, fun, rock 'n' roll (take note Animal Collective & Grizzly Bear) SONGS. Sure, the boys are hardly the most innovative kids on the block but the new album is a welcome shot in the arm just as roc..." [+] Reply

""Everything Must Go" is Steely Dan's second album since their re-union - and at this point their latest. I have noticed that it is often considered weaker than its predecessor, "Two Against Nature". I'm not sure I agree. Without quite reaching the heights of the 1970s there are on this album some..." [+] Reply
"Her musical sensibility is impeccable and she turns out great melodies. This album just sounds amazing. Lyrically, there's a playfulness to her songs that hearkens to 60/70s female country artists. She does fall back on clever phrases a bit too often, but her lyrics have matured overall. Give her..." [+] Reply

"The 1st Mansun album I ever bought, was disappointed with both the prequal and the sequal, but this is stunning and Tom Bakers voice on "Witness to A Murder", amazing track, great album, often overlooked, dismissed even at the time, a bit of a concept album and brilliant start to finish." Reply
"Brilliant and unique album by Armand Hammer. The instrumentals are dark, raw, and slow. The lyrics are thought provoking and have a nice sense of humor. It won't be for everybody, but if you're looking for something unique amond the other Hip Hop albums of 2018, give Paraffin by Armand Hammer a try." [+] Reply
