"I was really surprised when I first heard this. After several albums where I thought they had got into a rut and maybe even lost interest they produced what I think is a collection of excellent and varied songs with many a bit different from their earlier work. Violins and Tambourines, In a Momen..."  [+]  Reply

"Coldplay's business plan nowadays: releasing always even more duller and just radio-friendly pop albums that work for pleasing stadium crowds and every once in a while dropping an album without big promotion that shows enough musicial craftmanship to keep Oldplay from entirely writing the band of..."  [+]  Reply

"This is where it started. The hyperreal mess that was Future's life after his relationship ended, and the music that perfectly expresses the confusion and sadness he's feeling. And "hyperreal" doesn't mean "very real". It is also the mixtape that showed Future could probably fill a whole album wi..."  [+]  Reply

"Alison has a wonderful voice and Union Station provides the best backing you could possibly receive. This fantastic Bluegrass album (and bluegrass in general) needs more respect from BEA."  Reply

"A truly great album. Pimp C really came into his own as a producer and - along with Tip/Phife and Ghost/Rae - they complement each other as MC's as well as the best duos in hip-hop. No filler on this album, a landmark in Southern hip-hop."  Reply

"This is a "forgotten" gem of an album. One of the leading figures of the counter culture scene in London during the mid to late 1960s, Mick Farren also wrote and conceived a proto-punk/psychedelic sound that was way ahead of its time and still sounds fresh today."  Reply

"Pretty much a mess, with occasional glimmers of better. Would never have guessed had I heard it new that I would be listening to this band as much as anyone for the next 50 years. I own it for completeness, but listen to it as duty once in a long while."  Reply

"I wish I loved the third and final Petty/Lynne production more than I did, I still think Full Moon Fever is his greatest record. Still, it's a really solid Tom album. Best song(s): "Saving Grace" "Flirting With Time" "This Old Town""  Reply
