"On the surface Gang of Youths third album feels like a weird and awkward peek into a private world you shouldn’t be privy to However, rewarding repeated spins and time to absorb and peel back the onion skin layers ‘angel in realtime’ is in actuality an engrossing experience and towering work that..."

"Live Killers was the first live album by Queen. Released after the Jazz album, it's a time for the band when they were about to go through a serious change...from the adventurous and risk taking music they had made throughout the 70's to a more conventional sound and the use of synthesizers. This..." [+] 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 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

"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
"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.

"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
