"Every morning, I get down on my knees and thank God that Ronald Isley was born. His performance alone on "Sensuality" puts this album as one of the greatest ever. So perfectly written. Rock stations at the time had very broad playlists..The Album oriented Rock station in Cincinnati at t..."  [+]  Reply

"I almost picked "I'm still in love with you" or "call me" as they are my favorite Al Green albums, but there are so many great songs on this that I had to pick this album and include an Al Green album on my chart. "Love and Happiness" is my favorite Al Green song. Di..."  [+]  Reply

"I was able to find a nice copy of this album recently. This was popularized on KSHE 95 radio back in the day and they still play Pavlov’s Dog from time to time. This is a great listen."  Reply

"Not a big Styx fan, but this was and is a very good rock album. I bought it when it came out. Much better than the sappy, weak bubblegum stuff they made after The Grand Illusion, of which I was no big fan, either. Once "Babe" came out, Styx was dead to me."  Reply

"So far in my first listen to Thin Lizzy's discography, this is short of Jailbreak, but not by much. Loved this record, I still don't get how they weren't one of the biggest rock bands in the world. "For Those Who Love to Live," "Suicide," "Wild One," "Spirit Slips Away" and the amazing "Freedom S..."  [+]  Reply

"A Massive double album when it was released in 1975, "Gratitude" was a landmark album by the predominately African American populated R & B group. Combining live cuts taken from a nationwide tour and interspersing in Studio Tracks of another five additional new songs, Earth, Wind and Fire brought..."  [+]  Reply

"I haven't done it, but this is, what I imagine an ayahuasca experience sounds like. Disintegration, processing, then life-affirming reintegration. The second half of the album very much reminds of me of what King Gizzard specializes in, I have no doubt they own the rare first pressing."  Reply

"One of the great Southern Rock albums and one of the great debut albums in any genre. Every cut is worthwhile and most really shine. Green Grass and High Tides is the enduring Southern Rock epic, right up there with Free Bird and There Goes Another Love Song was a radio hit, but the rest of the a..."  [+]  Reply
