"fairly weedy synth pop, occasionally it soars but often it plods. And the lyrical concerns are fairly straight, if always playful. So, disappointing for a Sparks album for me."  Reply

Grrr! 
Compilation
"Between this and 40 licks, I've listened to 40 licks far more, but there are some really nice and crucial tracks missing from that compilation that are present here. I ended up finding this on vinyl and paying a pretty penny for it, but it was so worth it. Of course, the best Rolling Stones great..."  [+]  Reply

"Groundbreaking in Its time! The Fender Stratocaster- revolution. Perhaps a little dated, but still interesting and enjoyable listening! The production here is much better than what most of the english popscene produced later in the middle of the sixties!"  Reply

"This is as good an album of great Pop Standard covers you are ever likely to come across. Ms Dinah Washington; probably the most underrated Jazz vocalist of history. What a voice! What a selection! What a record!!"  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

"I didn’t find their last two albums that interesting and I eventually lost interest in them altogether, thinking the sound was too similar from album to album. Giving this one a chance was a worthy exercise though as it’s a lot less predictable and sounds a bit fuzzier and more stoner rock than u..."  [+]  Reply
