"Along with “Sweetheart of the Rodeo” this album is the most country-influeced album in the Byrds catalogue. But whereas “Sweetheart” tends to lean on classical country, “Ballad of Easy Rider” shows a much broader approach. This greater variety in styles, plus overall stronger material, makes this..."

"They probably did the blues better than any other glam rock hair band in the 80s. The follow up to this album was a straight up blues album but this one held on to the stadium glam of its predecessor Night Songs. This album encapsulates the band perfectly and is their best release." Reply

"Seminal cd from back when. Don't think I've ever heard it before, it's one of those you never quite got around to picking up. Picked up for pence in the charity shop because don't those 90s CDs sound just fine? Sounds exactly like what I thought it would (apart from I didn't realise cd one was un..." [+] Reply

"years later and this is still one of my favorite albums of all time. sucks it doesn't get the respect it truly deserves" Reply
"An essential masterpiece that captures Ornette's Prime Time early peak as a psychedelic jamming unit. They developed and transformed this beautiful music throughout the 70's and 80's and delivered Body Meta (Check out the deeply hypnotic opening track Voice Poetry) and Of Human Feelings, probably..."

""Evolution" was the first of two Hollies albums released in 1967. The band did a lot of experimenting in those years, both in songwriting and arrangements. Some of it worked, some of it didn't. "Butterfly" is often hailed as their finest and most consistent, whereas "Evolution" suffers from being..." [+] Reply
"Teardrinker and Gobblers of Dregs are up there with my favorite Mastodon songs. A lot of other songs on this album I really enjoy listening to, in particular The Crux and More Than I Could Chew. I think this collection falls under that category of double albums that would have benefitted from bei..." [+] Reply
