"Very good album. The Wolf nails it as usual over a brit-blues band groove through the record. Clapton is in top form and you can feel his enthusiasm about working with two of his heroes (the other is guitarist Hubert Sumlin wich he specifically requested to be at the recording sessions as a neces..."  [+]  Reply

"A very good album, you could say surprisingly good. The best tracks are the ones where "Su Tissue" sings. Not that "Vex Billingsgate" is bad as the lead - far from it. But Su's voice/style adds that certain something that makes those tracks half a star better. Unfortunately, if you want anymore t..."  [+]  Reply

"Very good album. Best 10 songs average is 90,0/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. Best song is "Feel" great , followed by "Something beautiful", "Monsoon", "Come undone" and "Cursed" all very good. Most other songs good, some ok only. Favourite! Genre: Pop Rock"  Reply

"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

"Unbelievably underrated album, people need to rediscover this amazing hard rock album, it's not heavy metal which is why it didn't do as well as some others in certain polls. Pop rock with quality song writing and quality playing on this album."  Reply

"The title track quite rightly stole the headlines for this release but there are some good songs under the radar here, Nobody's Perfect, Nobody Knows (my favourite from the album), Don't and Black And Blue. A solid album, the 2 lead vocalists make this a nice mix."  Reply

"Erykah Badu delivers an album I suppose it could be called a concept album centred around the telephone. The tracks are a mixed bunch of jazz hip hop soul. Her voice is unique and although a lot of the songs just repeat the same line over and over it works because the instrumentation is excellent..."  [+]  Reply
