"This album is an excellent starting point for a life-long love affair with this band (it worked out like that with me anyway). All the material is from the so-called 'core-7' albums from '67 to '72, recorded by the classic line-up of Hayward, Pinder, Thomas, Lodge and Edge. No crappy disco-ish/sy..."  [+]  Reply

"Heavy rock bands usually do decent live albums and this is no exception. I also like Rush's predictability in the early days (lost now) of 4 studios, then double live album. This is a great summary of their early stuff - Bastille Day, By-Tor and 2112 get a good airing."  Reply

"Two Thousand and Seventeen is among the most beautiful tracks I've come across this decade, the rest may be a mere continuation of what Four Tet has already done so well but it's still a wonderful listen regardless. Can do no wrong at this point even if he's hit his ceiling."  Reply

"Another fine Rod Stewart record. Gasoline alley, is not quite as consistent or as good as, every picture, but it features some fine songs. Only a hobo, cut across shorty and the title track are the pick of the bunch. Earthy, you can almost smell the smoke from the chimneys. Good stuff."  Reply

"A really beautiful album beginning to end. A powerful return for The Chicks, and Jack Antonoff did a great job producing it. Especially love March March and Young Man."  Reply

"When I first heard this album, I was impressed with all the arrangements. Swirling distorted guitars interweaving over "Beachboys" inspired harmonies. The song writing is solid, Every song has an accessibility ala The Beatles. My favourites are Haywire, Trouble and The Man Who Loved Life. However..."  [+]  Reply
