"The fact this album isn't in the top 10 of 1999 doesn't do it justice, I put it in my top 10 of all time. Tellin' Stories was good but this is just magnificent. The Blind Stagger and Impossible the stand out tracks from a an album where The Charlatans where on top form, with a big departure from ..." [+] Reply
"Although this did not have the immediate impact on me that KOTWF did at the time, I listened to it for longer then. I also find this easier to listen to now. So, taking that into account, and the fact it contains the classic Stand & Deliver I rate this higher (but neither as high as Dirk)... Saw ..." [+] Reply
"This album has its moments, and I have a feeling that this might be an album that requires a lot of listens to really get, but overall, the album was fairly boring. I mean, some of the songs were just straight up uninteresting entirely. Long, drawn-out electronic pieces that just stagnated and we..." [+] Reply

"Foreign affairs, is Tom Waits' film noir album. It's full of monochrome images of gangsters, loose women, and illicit goings on, it's a very cinematic experience. The record starts off with the instrumental, Cinny's waltz, sets the scene perfectly, this isn't a modern day record, it's old fashion..." [+] Reply
"I just don’t get the bad ratings. It’s not in my top tier of Tull albums but I really like this album. Salamander is one of my top 10 favorite tracks by the band. Maybe it’s because this was the 2nd Tull album I heard after Thick As a Brick as I have a sibling who’s seven years older than me and ..." [+] Reply
"Raw and ragged and kind of thin and flat; their first trip to the studio wasn't any better than anybody else's, and they were still figuring out whose guitar would be better where. But it is strangely compelling; like the very early U2 recordings, they aren't very good, but you can tell that will..." [+] Reply
"Someone recently asked me if Denzel Curry made the best trap album ever, but he can't have done because he didn't make this." Reply

"If you don't consider the movie & gospel albums as concept albums, this is the first concept album of Elvis. A very wide variety of country songs done perfectly. This is his best album of the seventies." Reply
