Popular Reviews

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits

What a masterpiece, genius guitar work, never in your face but always present, great atmosphere

The Sounds Of India by Ravi Shankar

While the Sitar is an interesting instrument, this album sounds more like a 50 minute solo on the Sitar which is just not that enjoyable as an album

Odelay by Beck

This truly was a huge disappointment for me. A Grammy winning album that is jumping from genre to genre with each song, each time in a worse manner while sounding awfully a lot like Kid Rock

Larks' Tongues In Aspic by King Crimson

Not bad but just a bit too much progressive and not enough rock to keep me entertained and intrigued
