"8 January 2014 Boy, top to bottom this thing is very solid. At times this record just thrills. There is a sense of joy and rediscovery that comes from the band and Bob throughout, and this energy makes it all the more excellent of a listen. The playing is just pure energy on the rock tracks and t..."  [+]  Reply

Atmospherically, Eyes Like the Sky is a triumph. If you listen carefully, you can even hear the tumbleweeds rolling b..."  [+]  Reply

"I actually enjoy this more then Oxygene, Fourth Rendez-vous being the best track in my opinion. If you're not keen on the old French synth-boff then I don't think this'll change your opinion, mind."  Reply

Compilation
"The greatest single collection of JB, the greatest and most influential R&B artist in history, and the inventor of funk. The only downside is that it came out when CDs didn't sound quite as good as they did a few years later, so there are later less comprehensive compilations with slightly better..."  [+]  Reply

"4.25 out of 5. This Dinosaur Jr album as a fairly more alternative feel to it. The band is know for their almost whiny vocals and dirty guitar riffs but this record has less of this and sweeter of overall tones, or at least in Dinosaur Jr standards. Love is..., Left / right, lost all day and be a..."  [+]  Reply
