My favorite Radiohead album of them all. After their first album with the wonderful Creep + lots of fillers and before they went crazily electronic this album had not a dud song on it. Brilliant videos and amazing lyrics and tunes. Great album

Hey ! at last classic rock. I love Deep Purple and while not a big fan of live albums (taking of one star for the pleasure?!) this was greeeaat:)

I am now thinking the generator hates me. Why else is it giving me the band behind Blue Monday, the most soulless song ever! I didn't dislike this as much I thought I would but, even though I love electronic music, this is too dancey for me

This sounds like something I would hear at a cocktail party (which I would never go to) or in a trendy jazzy restaurant (which I would never go to) so not for me (not for me).

I have Run, Sodomy and the Lash and that's okay! But even with Fairytale of New York I am not really loving this. I feel the best track is Turkish Song of the Damned and that is not enough to get more than 3 stars.

I haven't really listened to Nina Simone before so this was a revelation. The songs were beautiful and the production innovative. One of the highlights being another version of Lilac Wine. Alternatively romantic and political with each song. This is an album to be savoured.

This album is on my list of ones to buy but now I have listened to it I am not sure. Perhaps my expectations were too high - I thought it would be country tinged singer songwriting style but it is a bit too much country for me. Definitely great but perhaps not for me.

Like early Pink Floyd and Rush I always thought I would like this album/band. Unlike the aforementioned bands I actually do!

This is a wonderful proggy sound in a band where Greg Lake is actually allowed to shine without having the unlistenable madness of ELP.

It has a Jethro Tull feel with the flute and the songs are beautifully layered. After my first time listening this will be one to buy.

After the brilliance of Television comes Jamiroquai.

I think that if you have never heard Stevie Wonder in your life. Which is sad. Then you would think this is amazing.

But I adore Stevie and this is far too derivative to even appreciate that they are okay songs in their own right.

I didnt need to listen to this whole album to give it five stars...but I did anyway.

Like a tuneful Lou Reed and a source of inspiration to many bands, including Elastica, this is a New York feast for the ears. Great lyrics and melodies and wonderful album.

I am not the biggest fan of the Clash - or punk in general but this was better than I thought. Rudi cant fail and Lost in the Supermarket are great songs. But I feel that the album is rated highly more for its title track.

This is a completely new band to me. Without research I would have said that they were from 2000 onwards. In fact they are a late UK 80s band. This album is lovely but not interesting enough for me to give it 4 stars pity.

This was a fantastic album - I felt like I was walking around San Francisco during the Summer of Love, thats how emotive it was. I thought it was innovative, though very much in the psychedelia genre.

I found this quite boring - I do like Joy Division but here I felt a lot of the songs sounded the same.

I like Depeche Mode but never felt inspired enough to buy an album. This was wonderful but still would not buy it.

This was a great album with lots of great tracks but nothing that stood out as interesting or novel.

This really surprised me, in a good way. I have never listened to this band before but found the opening track to me mindblowing. It lost one star just as the rest of the album, while great, didn't live up to the first tracks potential.

Great tunes and brilliant vocals but feel this work is a bit derivative.

I like Led Zeppelin but not that much. This was a good album but with too many songs some I felt were fillers.

Not my sort of music generally so feel I wouldn't do a review on this album justice.
