"Blakey and Monk go together perfectly. The melodic playing of Blakey, the percussive playing of Monk, the soulful funkiness of Johnny Griffin, they're all working on the same bebop wavelength--high energy music, but with so much space and silence left in. The interplay between the musicians here ..."  [+]  Reply

"I'm surprised this EP hadn't been added before. It's a nice collection of songs to play after the original In Rainbows. Favorite songs: "Down is the New Up", "Bangers + Mash", "4 Minute Warning". The last one is actually one of my all-time favorite Radiohead songs. It should've been included in t..."  [+]  Reply

"Buddy really nailed it with this one and helped usher in yet another blues revival. His singing and playing are both so full of soul and expression and the production is crystal clear. Magnificent modern blues album!"  Reply

"I saw laurie in concert twice but this album actually captures the concert better than the actually concert, because there was so much going on on stage that I was a little distracted from the music. I still listen to this album and I always find something new that I hadn't heard before. The trac..."  [+]  Reply

"I've been listening to Megadeth for a long time and this might be my favorite album of their's since Youthanasia. Adler's drumming is superb and Kiko plays some very technical but tasteful guitar leads. Mustaine still writes great riffs and occasionally an extremely well crafted song (see The Thr..."  [+]  Reply

"THE BIG FOUR PLUS ONE I don’t care what anyone else says. The Screaming Trees were one of “The Big Four” of grunge. Call it the Big Five if you have to. Knock out those pussies in Pearl jam if you have to. I really don’t care. But they belong. They were there from the start. Cranked out SEVEN con..."  [+]  Reply

"Pleased to Meet Me, the strongest Replacements record, was a momentous achievement. Don't Tell a Soul is such a drastic shift in sound from its predecessor that it is often dismissed as the group's nadir. But the polished production actually enables Paul Westerberg and company to do deliver a mat..."  [+]  Reply
