"Other than a few tracks here and there on his other albums, this is the only Wyclef Jean solo work that is worth listening to.

"Lyle Lovett makes another record of his trademark mix of jazzy western swing, coffee house ballads, and clever lyrics. Not quite as good as the previous outing but highly enjoyable. Recommended especially for those looking for something that sounds original."  Reply

"Out of all the misfit artists in the "great credibility scare," Mary Chapin-Carpenter was by far the most successful. Steve Earle, Nanci Griffith and Lyle Lovett had mild success in the country market after being signed in the mid-80s. But Chapin-Carpenter scored major success, especially with Co..."  [+]  Reply

"This album is humanity on a good day: little ado on variations of stuff, and then at the end they just throw a party with mariachi music and shit. Jim O'Rourke is a genius"  Reply

"Sumo is an icon of argentine rock. This album contains a lot of classics, such as "Rubia Tarada", "Reggae de Paz y Amor" and my favourite, "Mejor No Hablar de Ciertas Cosas" (the influence of Joy Division is clear here and in "Divididos por la Felicidad")."  Reply

"I love this live album. Great selection of tracks. Not a bad rendition arrangement of any track for me. "Dead Flowers" sped up here changes the feel of the song, I like the original & this version. "Little Baby", "Let It Bleed", "Angie", "Slipping Away" from Keith. There is a bootleg "Stripped Co..."  [+]  Reply

"I absolutely love a number of the songs on here. Others I'd rather not ever hear again. Though part of Metallica's greatness is taking other bands' work and making it better. They did a lot of good with songs like Am I Evil, Breadfan, Helpless, Crash Course in Brain Surgery, the Wait, and Last Ca..."  [+]  Reply
