"The awesome power of the fully operational Messengers on display on this killer album. Lee Morgan had become an uncontainable monster by this point and is just ridiculously good here. The songwriting of Shorter and Timmons makes this one of the best Messengers albums to my ears; the tempos and th..."  [+]  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.

""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

"Their first album might be better overall, but it doesn't have "Blanch comme la neige/Perrine etait servante"..It is one of my most favorite album tracks of any genre, partly in french based on a 16th century tune, but perfectly arranged and captures a mood that I have never heard outsi..."  [+]  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

"Really can't believe I'm the only comment for this record. I guess thanks to Morrissey wearing that STOP KILLING ME T SHIRT I wouldn't have bought it , it's a indie classic and adored the catchy songs . Don't care what Rolling Stone or NME write about it this is a gem ,"  Reply
