"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..."

"A superb soundtrack album. Certainly better than the film, although it is fun, but the music is superb. Textured and atmospheric it drips New York with just the right amount of attitude. The title track is brilliantly humourus and the epic Do your thing is absolutely jaw dropping. One of the best..." [+] Reply

"So many of these songs sound better here because many of Leonard's studio works suffer from poor to average production. This album just sounds so good and the songs really take on a life of their own. The arrangements are superb. Favorite tracks "Dance Me To The End Of Love", "The Future", "Ain't..." [+] Reply

"Very good comedy rock/comedy rap/alternative rock/dance-pop/rap rock album. Best 10 songs average is 91,7/100 and the album can get very good 90/100.

"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..."

"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
"Billy Nicholls' response to The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds, and while this isn't quite as good a record as Pet Sounds, it still is a very diverse and lovely album. Any fan of the Beach Boys should check this one out!" Reply
"This album is laughably ignored and underrated in my opinion. It's better on every level than "St. Elsewhere" except it has no big hit like that album did. But it ably covers so much musical and emotional ground. The sad and mournful "Who's Gonna Save my soul" to the sample heavy dance of "Charit..." [+] Reply

"The first JMJ album I bought. I purchased this on the back of the ravings about Oxygene from a French student who stayed with my family one hot eighties summer. Couldn't get hold of Oxygene at the time. Still enjoy listening to this, not my favourite album by JMJ but the sort of album you end hum..." [+] Reply
