"This album is extremely underrated, Most only know it for the couple of radio hits. But the entire album is classic 90's rough with a heavy dose of country rock. Great ballad is "I want Everything"" Reply
"An excellent live album like a greatest hits of Bowie's career at that time." Reply

"My favourite of the 'latter'day Frank Zappa recordings. Some wonderful stuff on here, especially, harder than your husband, Doreen, and, Charlie's enormous mouth, all great. I've always loved this album, still do." Reply
"one of the deepest black holes in music history" Reply

"Okay, so it's not exactly "Who's Next" but it's a very solid album. Overall, the songs on here are actually better than on "Who Are You" but the boost that Keith Moon's powerful drumming would have given these songs is what is sorely missing and that's too bad because with Moon this might have be..."

"This album does not age because it is timeless, it continues to be inspiring for all those who truly love good music, unfortunately there are music consumers, those who are driven by trends and do not know how to evaluate a job with the depth that should be done, the groove in "Listen to the Musi..."
