I like the cover of this album so much. It has two titles. It depends whether you look at the front or the back. [First added to this chart: 06/06/2012]

This is not everybody's idea of what a Velvets' album should sound like, but it has some great songs on there, even if the production isn't quite right. [First added to this chart: 06/06/2012]

Yes I'm Thinking...Ilove everything about this Album. Barratt looks great on The cover. He sounds as if he is falling apart at times, but he still manages to put together a great album. [First added to this chart: 06/06/2012]

This album came from my grandad. He gave it to me and I loved it from the moment I saw it. The cover looks great. The music is amazing and is some of the best sound track work I have heard. [First added to this chart: 06/06/2012]
