"Wow! As soon as the needle drops into the groove, psychedelia fills the room. Harpsichord, organ, vibes, Mellotronesque flute drenched in reverb, psychedelic guitar, it's all here. And this is just the first track! Production is excellent on the vinyl re-issue. Recommended for lovers of psychedelia."  Reply

"I've always thought this was a very solid, if not spectacular, album. It is low-key, as subtle as the album cover artwork. Highpoints (IMHO) include the title track, "Spare Me A Little...", "Child Of Mine". I've had this one since the days of vinyl, and it still gets played."  Reply

"Grande is one of those generally popular artists that I innately hated. Their huge popularity and commercial success smothered my own artistic appreciation. This is her latest and, for my taste at least, finest release. The musical ride is still gentle but greatly enjoyable. She just gets better ..."  [+]  Reply

"He's kind of an R&B Lorde. Sparse instrumentals, infectious melodies, lyrics come from a young place, husky delivery. He just doesn't have the same detail in his songwriting that Lorde does. He could also mix up his sound a bit more, a couple songs start to bleed together towards the back end."  Reply

"These are some of the dumbest reviews I've read on this site, and y'all got some competition. Auto-tune =/= trap inspired first of all... it's a hilarious suggestion though, keep up the bad takes. No, he doesn't use indiginous instruments from east russia in a 5/4 time signature, but we're talkin..."  [+]  Reply

"Live Killers was the first live album by Queen. Released after the Jazz album, it's a time for the band when they were about to go through a serious change...from the adventurous and risk taking music they had made throughout the 70's to a more conventional sound and the use of synthesizers. This..."  [+]  Reply

"Gah! I couldn't disagree with you more, found out about this on the same thread as you although I think the sound is even better than on UP for many of the tracks (Shadowplay, Disorder and Transmission) Best live album ever (after stop making sense)"  Reply
