Aug 24, 2017
This album and 'The Blue Album' have some of the most generally recognisable Beatles songs, ones that have stood the test of time and are still played time and time again, in all corners of the globe. That is testament to the pure genius of The Beatles. (1 more)
Every song is superb.

May 13, 2020
Rolling Stone's 372nd greatest album of all time
Superb second album by The Police, featuring the epic Message in a Bottle, the brooding reggae of Walking on the Moon and a good few other great songs. For me this was The Police (and lets face it therefore Sting) at their best.
Rolling Stone's 361st greatest album of all time
Great soft hip hop album, with more melody than a lot of similar acts, as sufficient focus is given to the music. Featuring the well-known Ms Jackson and a number of lesser known but great songs, particularly Humble Mumble and Slum Beautiful.

Rolling Stone's 357th greatest album of all time
Forgettable album by Jagger et al. I listened to the original issued version, rather than the US version which included "Lets Spend the Night Together" and "Ruby Tuesday", which certainly would have helped. Without these, there is very little to remember here.
Ross (3284 KP) rated Squeezing Out Sparks by Graham Parker & The Rumour / Graham Parker in Music
May 18, 2020
Rolling Stone's 334th greatest album of all time
Brilliant album, I would say reminiscent of Elvis Costello but I believe they emerged about the same time, Parker possibly slightly earlier. Still, that gives an indication of the style of music, being similar to Costello's early days. Great "diet punk" songs.

May 21, 2020
Rolling Stone's 316th greatest album of all time
Fantastic album, featuring so many amazing rock songs, from the sublime "Where is my mind" to the bonkers "Broken Face". A band with so much personality, intelligence and sense of humour, and an ability to mix in different styles and tempos of song.
Ross (3284 KP) rated Buffalo Springfield Again by Buffalo Springfield in Music
Jun 8, 2020
Rolling Stone's 188th greatest album of all time
Decent 60s American blues/rock album. Neil Young's presence really sets this apart from the likes of the Birds and other bands of the time, adding a rawness (mainly through his slightly a-tonal voice but also his desire for fuzzier guitar sounds).
