"2 things about your statement, chap. 1. What is 'realist' about the line 'fucking shredded wheat Kellogg's cunts on bleachers arcock?' - it's babble, a 21st Century James Joyce expect drunk on Special Brew and covered in his own piss on a park bench. 2. The whole album is nothing BUT a gimmick - ..."  [+]  Reply

"This live album has actually stood the test of time it is not that bad as far as live albums go. Captured live in the U.S.A. there are some different takes on some well known songs Suffragette City and the Jean Genie stand out along with a live version of Knock On Wood."  Reply

"I did not get the music of this band at all. A mix of Johnny Cash, Dylan, and Elvis Costello. The vocals were lazy and dreamy, but most of the songs were not very cool."  Reply

"This is Mexican Ska at its best. It contains a themed set of songs about living in the biggest Latinamerican city; the album celebrates the idea of life as a carnival, and as a group of minstrels would do they sing tales of urban heroes from the slums and traditional neighborhoods -- called 'veci..."  [+]  Reply

"Uncle Tupelo's sophomore release finds them expanding their sound a little bit, while sticking to the basic alt-country and cowpunk that made their first effort, No Depression, such a success (critically, anyway). My favorite track here is probably Jay Farrar's explosive and disaffected guitar ro..."  [+]  Reply

"What an absolute joy it was to finally here this album which could well be the most underrated historically significant rock album of the 70’s. Simply look at the roll call of guests who contributed a veritable who’s who of rock stardom in the early 70’s - George Harrison - John Lennon - Paul McC..."  [+]  Reply

"All of the pieces are here for a great album but there is a little something missing. The record is consistent and does a great job of showcasing some of the Small Faces' strengths. Steve Marriott is a amazing throughout. There are a few gems (Itychcoo Park, I'm Only Dreaming, Tin Soldier) but al..."  [+]  Reply
