"This album has been on my wish list for a long time, so I feel I should point out that I have highly anticipated it for a few months, just incase that affects my opinion. This album had alot to live up to, it was released after a run of classic albums, but does it live up to them? Yes and no. Bro..."  [+]  Reply

"A truly annoying album that deserves the relative obscurity it has earned, despite the pleadings of a few delusional music critics. Sal Valentino's vocals combine the nasal tone of Dylan with the irritating vibrato of Tiny Tim for a rather brutal 1-2 punch to the nerves. The music isn't completel..."  [+]  Reply

"Everyone had written off Weiland and the STPers at this point in the 90's, but going back and listening to this one 10 years after the fact, I'm not sure why. No, it wasn't Purple or Core, but it still had some very good moments, and if some of these songs had been released four years earlier the..."  [+]  Reply

"While Smokin' at the Half Note is generally considered to be the definitive live Wes Montgomery album, I find this one to be at least its equal. This is live jazz guitar as good as it gets."  Reply

"Reminds me of the late fifties style music, where the subjects are straightforward and deal with unrequited love or love gone wrong. That's not to say this records sounds dated; on the contrary, Solomon delivers with a unique and passionate voice. And his cover of "He'll gave to go" is flat out a..."  [+]  Reply

"Make no mistake, this is Brit-pop, but instead of the revivalism hawked by Viva Brother this is a fine addition to the lineage started by The Beatles and recently updated by the likes of Blur and The Libertines. Although their love of Pete'n'Carl may be a bit too obvious at times, their tunes (of..."  [+]  Reply

"I’ve been following Mackenzie Scott’s unique stylings of raw vocals and introspective lyrics for a while now and for 2020’s strong ‘Silver Tongue’ I wrote - “Each album has been progressively more assured and here on album number 4 she has released her best album to date . I’ve no doubt the maste..."  [+]  Reply
