"Although I 've never been a big fan of John Mayall, partly because of his vocals, I must, of course, admit that "A Hard Road" is an important and interesting album; characterized by fine songwriting with a solid foundation in the blues. For me though, it is especially Peter Green's presence that ..." [+] Reply
"It's a nice album. It was actually a pleasant surprise, I expected an album full of "thrift shop", but it turned out to be something completely different. If Macklemore continues to improve, then I think he might stand a chance of standing the test of time in the music industry." Reply
"Great first half with three killer tracks like Flower, All Your Lies and Beyond the Wheel, the rest is quite good. Generally, they have done much better, but you can already hear the power of this band." Reply
"I don't understand why "I Walk the Line" is on this album. It was on the debut album, too." Reply
"Criminally underrated; there is a constant upbeat roar throughout but not with monotony. Songs like 'Can't Stand Your Funk' are reminiscent of modern funk/fusion artists. One of Mahavishnu's more consistent albums, if not the most consistent of them all." Reply
"A fantastic live document of the Gabriel era. The 2007 version adds part of the Lamb show in LA from 1975." Reply

"A very obscure album for McCartney standards. Overall is good with some good tracks and some less interesting ones. I can't help to think that it would be really good if the tracklist was cut from 16 to 10 or 11 tracks. Albums got really long in the cd era and I don't think that was a good thing ..." [+] Reply
"(A bit of an odd album. When I hear it, it's as real and tangible as that pond on the desert's horizon. And when the album ends, its as gone as ... well, that damn pond. Anyway, shitty attempts at poetic metaphor aside, this is a strangely gauzy, smoky, ethereal album that flows effortlessly and ..." [+] Reply
