"Although Elvis' film selections were questionable at this time in his life, this album contains the one song that matters. "Can't Help Falling in Love". He may not have made all the right moves in his film career, but his music always stood up as classic, and this is no exception."  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

"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

"One of those records that people make their minds up prior to hearing it that it is utter shit. Then listen to it and reluctantly admit its not that bad. If you read the notes in the gatefold he says " it is my personal conception of their characters in relation to keyboard instruments". Now, see..."  [+]  Reply

"I firmly believe PinkPantheress has a bright future in music ahead of her. An amazing producer, one of the best in the game right now. Her sound is super unique and futuristic and one day will be regarded as very influential. This LP is some of her best offerings yet. Silky, nostalgic UK garage b..."  [+]  Reply

"(Quite heavy in several senses of that word, and generally pretty intense and loud and ugly. I respect it, but don't quite love it in all its brutal, abrasive charms.) Right from the jump with the opening slab of industrial metal insanity I knew I was in for some intense and sharp and abrasive an..."  [+]  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
