"The Crowes have never been about the "hits". This album marked the arrival of guitarist Marc Ford and a huge leap in songwriting. The interplay between Ford and Rich Robinson, the beginning of the move away from straight Southern boogie, the maturity of Chris Robinson's voice, and the massive lea..." [+] Reply

"If ever an album was made for listening to in the dark with a decent pair of headphones, this is it. Substances may also help. It's like having your brain kissed through your ears. Bliss." Reply

"Eric Clapton's solo stuff doesn't get enough love on BEA. The man is best with an electric guitar in his hands, but he proves with this album that he can handle the blues on acoustic as well as anyone." Reply

"Very underrated album. It is very comparable to "So". I think it's actually better, and second only to PG III. Much of it is more creative than "So" although Steam really is a sequel to Sledgehammer. There is nothing on "So" as dark and nasty as Digging in the Dirt or as clever and slimy as Kiss ..."

"Alt.rock’s greatest singer-songwriter by a country mile! Although commonly thought of as just a honey tongued heartthrob with good hair, Dando crafted the catchiest, stick-in-your-head codeine-addled pop of the alt.rock era. His charm (and perhaps his curse) was how he made it sound effortless. H..." [+] Reply

"As much as I love Q-Tip and company, the crew at Tribe might be pansies compared to Pharcyde. Sometimes the lyrics here go a bit too far, but production-wise, I can't think of a better non-Kanye rap album. It's as jazzy as jazz-rap could be." Reply

"The first half sits comfortably next to Nevermind, if somewhat less essential. The second half is weaker than the low points of bleach. Then it finishes with one of their best track." Reply

"Sadly, people outside of Canada just do not understand. I, for one, do not understand why you can call anything by Radiohead (for example) more atmospheric or resonant than Locked in the Trunk of a Car. In Canada, this album spawned five modern rock radio staples and began to crystalize the band'..." [+] Reply

"I truly, truly believe that to appreciate this album fully you had to have 'been there'. For some reason Nowhere got all the plaudits and attention, but GBE hangs together beautifully, and is all the better for it. Seeing Ride live was an epiphany - and my hair was all long and shaggy for about 6..." [+] Reply

"Despite Cave and company's thoughts that this album's sound was too tampered with post-recording, I find it to be one of his most fun, rocking albums. "Straight to You" is arguably his best song ever. Favorite tracks: "Straight to You", "Jack the Ripper", "Papa Won't Leave You, Henry"" Reply
