"What a great album. was a little disapointted when Perfect Illusion came out. but the album came to show me that she can do much more than that, the album has so many genres and is so diferent from all she have done, but i can still feel the roots of how she started up her career. good job gaga"  Reply

"Although released in 1958, this was shortlisted for the Grammy's Album of the year for 1959 (the first Grammy Awards). The winner was The Music from Peter Gunn by Henry Mancini"  Reply

"Brilliant album. Saw Whitesnake live at the Cornwall Coliseum in a hot summer in the eighties. Still have visions of John Lord rocking his Hammond organ back and forth, Cozy Powell, a powerhouse behind the shimmering drum kit and David Coverdale,leather trousers clad, really engaging the audience..."  [+]  Reply
