Great reggae compilation album. You Can Get it if You Really Want is a definite standout but the whole album is generally soulful soft reggae.

Rolling Stone's 231st greatest album of all time
Brilliant rock opera album. The utter nonsense of "I'm in Love with my Car" aside, the album is full of superb soaring epic rock songs.

Rolling Stone's 17th greatest album of all time
It's easy to ignore this album as simply the album with the most overplayed rock song in the world, but it is a superb album. Smells Like Teen Spirit aside, every song offers something different, passionate, raw and emotional. This was a very welcome return visit to an album I loved and then ignored for too long.

Rolling Stone's 338th greatest album of all time
Great psychedelic rock album, Janis Joplin's voice at times powerful, raw and shrill, at other times soft and vulnerable. A very authentic and engaging live album.

Very enjoyable listening on this plodding slightly psychedelic album. Off The Record is a standout track but the whole album is a good laid back listen.
