"I actually enjoy this more then Oxygene, Fourth Rendez-vous being the best track in my opinion. If you're not keen on the old French synth-boff then I don't think this'll change your opinion, mind."  Reply

"Abba's second album from 1974 is in many as a natural sequel to the debut "Ring Ring" from 1973. The recipe is much the same: a handful of fine singles "Waterloo" (not least), "Honey Honey" and "Hasta Mañana" supplemented with a mixed bag of popsongs. Among the lesser-known album-tracks there are..."  [+]  Reply

"AKA "The Pussy Album" (more people know the cover _ censored at the time _ than the songs). In her 4th record, the great singer ditches rock'n'roll and returns to more Brazilian sounds, including the classic "Desafinado" and more recent songs from friends like Caetano, Macalé and Melodia. There's..."  [+]  Reply

"I used to seriously hate that album because the song Broadsword is among one of the best of the band but all the rest of the album is so weak. Re-listening to it now I realize that my extreme reaction may have been due to this extreme difference between the top track and all the rest. I still dou..."  [+]  Reply

"I like the sound of rave music done well. But rave music needs to be fluid, with a seamless mixing carrying you forward on a journey, unbroken by genre changes without a thread of the rhythmic transcendences driving you forward. There’s nothing wrong with the dance/rave compositions within this a..."  [+]  Reply
