"I'm surprised that no one has yet commented on this album. It is one of their better efforts and no, I don't think the overplayed hit Black Water was the best song. Pursuit on 53rd St., Eyes of Silver, and Another Park are all better songs. This band was so much better before Michael McDonald bec..." [+] Reply
"Excellent double live album from their early days. I know there is some debate (now) whether bands like Whitesnake, Rainbow and Deep Purple were Heavy Metal bands. Put it like this, they were then! I saw Whitesnake with Cozy Powell on the drum stool and John Lord on keyboards back in the eighties..." [+] Reply
"I ask everyone to give this album a try. It's one of those that I found in my early teen years, listened to it all through high school, and still enjoy it today. Yes it is a bit angsty, but it's honest. Justin Pierre is one of the greatest poets of his generation and every single one of his lyric..." [+] Reply

"Although not my favorite record of Ray, this was a real turning point in his career, showing that he could deliver memorable albums, just as well as memorable singles." Reply
"Mr. Yoakam's 5th album is a solid contemporary country record. There are several stand out tracks on here "A Thousand Miles from Nowhere" and "Ain't That Lonely Yet" being my favorites." Reply
"I was apprehensive, since I really did not like Cerulean Salt. This is exactly the album I would've wanted from Waxahatchee. Well-written, full-sounding track after track. Dynamic and captivating across the board. Maybe not the most exciting record of the year, but solid through and through." Reply

""Smile" comes off more americana than country, but all the same, the album's replete with pop sensibilities which often puts a smile on this face. They're asking you to "smile when you're down and out" and keep your "chin up". then they're proclaiming their love glowingly from the tallest buildin..." [+] Reply
