"This was back in the days I used to listen to X-96 at work for a few hours every day. "Circles" was a song they played a few times a day for a while... everyone in the office got real sick of it, except for me, so since I was manning the radio, it got turned up every time it came on."  Reply

"Album Rating: 86.00 (344/4) Maruja (CW - UK - Apr 24) - Connla's Well 26.04.2024 More psychedelic-jazz-rock from the banks of the muddy Medlock. It's more mature than the 2023 EP 'Knocknarea' but doesn't quite reach that level, other than on the powerful 'The Invisible Man'. 1.Maruja (CW - UK - A..."  [+]  Reply

""Resurrection" definitely belongs among the best Divine Comedy albums. The production is clearly better than on the previous Setanta releases Setanta; not least thanks to producer Nigel Godrich who has created a much more modern "Britpop" sound. Unfortunately the album was more an artistic succes..."  [+]  Reply

"For those not familiar with the history of jazz, Louis Armstrong was probably the most important figure in the early development of the genre. His innovative improvisations and superb technical skills on the trumpet and cornet basically set the standard for jazz in the 1920s and 1930s. My favorit..."  [+]  Reply

"This is exactly what Christian rock needs to be. I tend to get sick of the constant feel-good Christian rock that gets played on the radio. How family-friendly it has to be. It’s like Christian rock has to never show struggle or wavering faith. Everything is happy all the time. Well Tenth Avenue ..."  [+]  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
