"This album is almost entirely folk music with a little bit of rock thrown in and it’s very good. Lyrically it is well written, the songs are enjoyable and, aside from one or two slow parts, the album is very solid."  Reply

"I'm very surprised by this album... this old band still has energy and good material to cheer us up... technically impeccable, serious and competent progressive metal, an album for progressive metal fans to evaluate"  Reply

"Ray Lamontagne's third album sees him continuing his rustic sound. It's a good record, but to me the first two tracks, you are the best thing, and, let it be me, sound like songs requested by his record company for two commercial tracks for single purposes and then he can do what he wants with th..."  [+]  Reply

"Another great (actually, "great" might be an understatement) rapper who takes a slight turn to appeal to the masses, without compromising that much -if any- in terms of quality. Especially in this album you can guess how ambitious it is just by checking the credits. This includes both the product..."  [+]  Reply

""The Dance of Solitude", one of Paulinho's greatest classics, if not his masterpiece. A handful of his most well known songs are here (my favorite is the haunting "Meu Mundo É Hoje", one of samba's best lyrics), besides a version of Cartola's "Acontece" and the ironic "Falso Moralista", by Nelson..."  [+]  Reply

"Stirring and moving late career rebirth for Americas greatest band. Touch Of Grey is fantastic Throwing Stones is powerful with a message still relevant today, and West La Fadeaway and it seedy tales of The Chateau (Marmont) is fantastic as well. Truly well performed collection of high quality so..."  [+]  Reply
