"It's not bad. It's a really interesting album with some fantastic drum beats and unique basslines, but overall it seemed like there were more okay songs than great songs. It's not as good as TNT, but it's still a substantial effort. Best tracks: Eros, Blackjack, Speakeasy Worst tracks: Firefly, E..."  [+]  Reply

"Durazno Sangrando is the next step in Spinetta's natural evolution as an artist and is one of his most ambitious works, a sort of Led Zeppelin-cum-Mahavishnu Orchestra concept album inspired by an ancient Chinese text on meditation called The Secret of the Golden Flower, and it consists of two lo..."  [+]  Reply

"Putting this in my boom box made me feel like just about the coolest 14 year old white kid around in 1985, but on further reflection it's a patchy collection of songs that relfects a new(er) genre struggling to find an identity. Only the closing song, "Daryl and Joe", embodies the rich, layered s..."  [+]  Reply

"This album would be terrible by anybody else. The amount of covers, several songs have fairly simple chord progressions, etc. But I know of no other equal to this man's voice.

"This the first T.Rex album is full of folksy instruments and weird vicals. John Peel introduced Marc Bolan to an unsuspecting British audience in 1967/8 and Bolan never looked back. His songs changed over the following 10 years but that unique voice remained. Electric warrior is by far the best o..."  [+]  Reply
