"I don't understand why "I Walk the Line" is on this album. It was on the debut album, too." Reply
"Rock reinvented. Great guitar-only prog rock album. Minion's song, planet of insects and interstellar are the top tracks. The latter provided the highlight of my gig-going last year (2011)" Reply
"There are some good raps and good beats on here, with some interesting samples including portishead and genesis ("firth of fifth"). Ultimately, schoolboy needs more focus and hooks, especially in the back half of the album. As a result of the eclectic samples and lack of focus, this album often f..." [+] 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

"Magnificent jazz from start to finish on this one. With the possible exception of Coltrane, this is proably my favorite tenor album of all time. The ensemble, while not household names, fit perfectly as well." Reply

"Compare this to Hotter than July. Which is better? July. But they aren't much different. This has great vibes throughout, not a bad/unlistenable song. You can absolutely listen to this as an album. Overjoyed could be in his top 3 of sweet songs not falling over into sappiness, and Wonder has a lo..." [+] Reply
