"This is Sydney, Australia, brother-sister duo Angus & Julia Stone's best album, whose flavor is probably best summarized by Angus's observation in "Yellow Brick Road": "I fell in love with California." This album's twee folk stylings lean heavily on California influences such as Fleetwood Mac and..." [+] 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

"As my musical taste matured growing up, I never grew out of this album. The best of a low-esteemed genre of music. Its a great break-up album, that speaks to teenage emotions even as an adult." Reply
"Gang Starr's best album. Has a beautiful spontaneity about it. Guru's best rhymes throughout, and some brilliantly put together songs ('Ex Girl To Next', 'BYS', 'Take It Personal', 'The Place Where We Dwell'). Primo was the master of the soul loop and drum sample at this point. Motherfucker made ..." [+] Reply
"I was expecting a decent album to follow up their debut album, which I enjoyed. They took a big step backwards with this record - I don't think this will get a repeat listen" Reply
"Great album!" Reply
"Easily the funnest, most demented & illest trip hop album ever made. Viva! La Woman Is to trip hop what Paul Boutique was to rap. A breath of fresh air. RIYL: Laika, Pram, Solex, Soul Coughing" 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
"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
