"This album is not their 2nd best. Is actually one of their worst. Wings of Tomorrow is their best. 2nd best is their "Out of this World" album. Third is "The Final Countdown". Fourth is their very first album which was great. Prisoners of Paradise reminds me of the beginning of a child's cartoon...."  [+]  Reply

"The versions of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" And "Something" are simply incredible, they are just as good as the originals. I don't know why the didn't included "Junk" in any album, as it is an excellent song of Paul."  Reply

"Not as daring as their earlier albums, but still solid. Very Beatlesque like ELO, just listen to "Feel The Benefit" and "The Things We Do For Love" for proof."  Reply

"From the very beginning, this remarkable band was distinguished by its inventive music, featuring a variety of magnificent vocal harmonies (performed by four vocalists), stylish melodies, and a delightful sense of humor and eccentricity (in the spirit of Zappa and Captain Beefheart). Of course, t..."  [+]  Reply

"Thankfully sounds a lot more like James Blake from Overgrown than say...The Weeknd. The ending of Precious Love is pretty corny, but I think Face Again and Repeat Pleasure make up for it. I enjoyed this overall, but I don't know when I'll come back to it."  Reply

"This starts out average enough, but then quietly yields to face-melting acid haze by the second half. Check out the last four tracks, in particular...but at 28 minutes, this isn’t a time consuming album."  Reply
