"This band has the honour of the best band name origin story in the history of band name origin stories. Based on an early 20th century anti-humanist organisation called the Sleepytime Gorilla Press, their music is equally strange and incredibly accomplished. They even invent their own instruments..."  [+]  Reply

"Still regarded as one of the most important and influential albums in the history of Christian music. If that kind of thing appeals to you then you must listen to this album."  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

"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

"Disappointed with this album. Im not sure why they don't use Calebs vocals more dynamically, his voice is unreal. It just sits and stays when I want the explosion. Back round music is as always pretty solid."  Reply

"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
