"Love this album so much. An overlooked electronic record form the 80's. And still feels very vibrant after being over 30 years old at this point in time." Reply
"Solid jazz. This must be one of the two-hundredth jazz albums I have recently listened to. I'm not getting bored, but with that many listenens is soon becomes difficult to distinguish a GREAT album from the lot as it is impossible to find a BAD jazz album! With these great musicians, that is not ..." [+] Reply

"There is no way a monkey could ever type Hamlet, but I am pretty sure a monkey or at the very least a group of monkeys could create a similar album to Animal Collective's Danse Manatee. Okay that was a joke and it was a bit harsh. I mean I must have some reasoning behind the fact that I gave this..." [+] Reply
"I agree with all the comments people are putting up about all the Super Furry Albums. I've only heard the ones from the 2000s, but they are gret. Sort of mellow, people have compared them to Pink Floyd, I'd say they are even a little mellower than Floyd from what I've heard. Love to hear those al..." [+] Reply

"Ok Shoegaze hipster snobs it's Britpop but its damn fine Britpop. Get over it. The genre already wore its course when this album came out. Lush turned whatever they did into gold and this album is no exception. Some of the best singles you'll hear not just from Lush but from anyone that came out ..." [+] Reply

"For anyone who ever felt that three Nick Drake albums isn't nearly enough, don't despair because this might be one of the greatest album he never recorded." Reply

"As a seventeen year old I was impacted by the bombast and sonic power on show. My stereo struggling to cope with the loudness of the record, presumably set with the intent to blow your amp. Great tracks include where were you hiding when the storm broke, the lovely tell me and the stand out decei..." [+] Reply
"Love this album, sounds amazing on vinyl, has moments of eastern mystique and is a more easy listen than some of the Daevid Allen led albums" Reply
