"An eclectic, eccentric collaboration of former Dresden Dolls member and pop piano tunesmith Ben Folds comes up just short of hitting the mark. The weird and wonderful are topics du jour. Some guests show up, including Dead Kennedys drummer East Bay Ray and St. Vincent's Annie Clark, but it mostly..." [+] Reply

"Very surprised at the low rating for this... I think there's a stigma and snobbery around Craig David that I don't understand. I can't fathom how an album like Stankonia is ranked so far above this.

"Really great album...deserving of a much higher ranking for 1972." Reply
