"Not too long after the concert captured on the Swiss Cheese/Fire boot, the Flo and Eddie version of the Mothers played a show in London that would turn out to be that line-up's last. An idiot in the audience thought Frank was "making eyes" at his girlfriend, so he climbed up onto the stage and pu..."  [+]  Reply

"Aug19. These guys have been coming up a lot on my YouTube playlists lately. The first 2 songs are pretty good, then comes 'She's Kerosene' which is a brilliant song. This is certainly ska I can listen to over and over. 'Got Each Other' (with Rancid) is good, of course. Everyone has a go at vocals..."  [+]  Reply

"Lonnie Johnson plays electric guitar on this one (and how!) and also sings. Elmer Snowden plays acoustic guitar and Wendell Marshall plays bass. This is a great blues album by suburb players."  Reply

"A partial show recording from Bruce's triumphant return home after circling the globe with a reunited E Street Band. This tour is what solidified Bruce as one of my favorite artists and therefore holds a special place in my heart. If he'd released a full show instead of this chopped up piece of o..."  [+]  Reply

"Burial has two full length studio albums to his name. Both are classics and game-changers in the genre of minimalist electronic music. He is undoubtedly the benchmark electronic artist of today. But here we have what I believe are two of his best albums, both EPs, combined into a full length albu..."  [+]  Reply

"For fans of glittery 80s pop, this is heaven on earth. Crisp, modern production combined with sounds reminiscent of the greatest of the 1980s lends to an incredibly satisfying listen.
