"You can't really go softer and gentler than this LP. Superb songs. Electric Guitars is a nostalgic reflexion on the Beatles: "We were songbirds, we were Greek Gods, We were singled out by fate, We were quoted out of context - it was great"."  Reply

"Brilliant album. Production wise, it was a clear step up on Actual Fantasy. Possibly the only criticism is that at 104 minutes it goes on a little too long. And it is not really an album that one can pick and choose tracks as there is commentary in between."  Reply

"Something For Kate will be remembered if only for 'Monsters' from this album. But the album has a lot to offer and was one album I listened to constantly after its intial release. My all-time favourite Aus album."  Reply

"Denim and Leather is an anthem filled album. It's hard to say which tracks are the best but if I had to pick I'd say Princess of the Night, And the Bands Played On, and Denim and Leather. The whole album is worth a listen though."  Reply

"(A solid, if somewhat sterile to my ears, Notwist album. Some nice warm and peaceful indie songs with electronic elements.) It's nice to get reacquainted with The Notwist. I had Neon Golden in my CD player a lot back in the day, never delved into their earlier stuff nor their later stuff and just..."  [+]  Reply

"I was rather curious about the lead vocals of Benoît David. His last efford with Mystery was great. To be honest, I enjoyed his vocals better on 'One Among the Living'. Maybe Trevor Horn thought the same wheb replacing him on Yes' next album. Or was it just average songwriting on this Yes album??"  Reply

"This is a fantastic album featuring the combined power of Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks' bands. Susan Tedeschi has one of the greatest voices in blues (or any genre, if you ask me) a powerful, beautiful voice that seems like a combination of the best aspects of the voices of Janis Joplin and Bo..."  [+]  Reply
