This is a nice post-grunge album, it has the seeds of greatness but doesn't quite make it. It's a good album but just not history making, maybe I need to give it more chance.

Stand Out Tracks; 'Cochise', 'Like a Stone', 'Set It Off'

Well I'm shocked to say that I like this album even though I wanted to hate it. The album has a lot of upbeat tracks and the songs are very catchy. I wouldn't say it is a classic album, but it is a good pop album.

This is a mix of traditional folk music with and modern twist. Eliza is a very good fiddle player, and this album highlights her skills. I like all sorts of music and I love folk, but to me this album does not sound unique. I found a lot of the songs... See full review

I have only had one listen of this album, and overall it's sounds good. It starts well with some interesting tracks, and it feels fresh compared to his older stuff. I am not totally convinced by the whole thing, but over time I think it will grown on... See full review

This is an album that I would not buy or listen to, but my wife had it on and I was pleasantly surprised. When you hear tracks played on the radio to death, you start to ignore them. Listen to this album now, I'm surprised how much I enjoyed it. Full... See full review

Was given this album and knew nothing about it. I looked Gene up and apparently they are like the Smiths. I thought this sounded nothing like them, but found the music good. It feels like early britpop, and the songs are well crafted. With only one... See full review

The two hits are good pop hits, and great to sing a long too. The rest of this album is more of the same. The rest of the tracks are fine, but there really isn't anything special here.

The couple of albums before this release I didn't think much of, so wasn't expecting much. I was pleasantly surprised, and although it's not as good as classic R.E.M., this album holds it's own. It is upbeat and full of catchy tracks, nothing super... See full review

This is a solid effort by Supergrass, and well worth a listen. Although it doesn't sound as special as their first few albums, this does feel like those albums. It full of meaty tracks to get your teeth into, and it doesn't hold back from throwing... See full review

This album starts well, and sounds very fresh. You get a mix of punk with violin hooks, which blends extremely well. The whole album is a good first effort, although it does tale off after the first few tracks. The album is like a little ray of pop... See full review

A nice album with a great production and some tracks which are catchy and will last the test of time. The album is a little avant-garde and won't be many peoples cup of tea. I don't think it flows as an album, and it needs a bit more contrasts.... See full review

I remember when Duffy was on the radio all the time, and 'Mercy' became very wearing. Going back this album after many years, I'm pleasantly surprised how fresh it feels. The hits still sound as good in 2020 as they did 12 years ago. The others tracks... See full review

This is the first time Hayseed Dixie have done an album without covers. I can understand why they have taken that route as you don't want to be seen as a covers band. They bring the same style as always and these tracks are not too bad, and it's album... See full review

When Adele first come on the scene I wasn't that interested, I's heard 'Chasing Pavements' everywhere, I thought it was good but wasn't that fascinated. Since she has other releases I have final seen how special she is. Adele has a beautiful voice... See full review

There are so many bands who sound like Flyleaf, and it's a shame as this album is a solid piece of work. The is well played and totally rocks, it's just not original, you could be listening to any generic band. It feels a bit like painting by numbers,... See full review

I was given this album, and I wasn't expecting much from this worship album. I was wrong, it is really good, full of great tracks. For the most part these songs are more rocky than your typical worship compilation.

An original Queen song with Paul Rodgers. It's OK, it will never be like anything they have done with Freddie, but it's not a bad track. The video has been added but nothing else.

It's a big shame that the original version of the song is not on this single. The different mixes are OK, but don't add anything. The best thing about this disc is the added video, but you can find that on YouTube.

A solid track from Gwen, which is upbeat and fun. The remix tracks don't add much, but they are a little bit of fun.

It's hard to make a Led Zeppelin best of album as there are so many great tracks. This album is great place to start if you are new to Zeppelin, everything you expect to be here is here. This is a must have album as it absolutely rocks from being to... See full review

This is a really good set for Queen, I love how raw it is. It taken from the last concept they did in 1981, and the last time they played as just the 4 members on stage. Track after track the energy grows and gets better and better. It's good to hear... See full review

'Hot' is a fairly average track for Lavigne, it doesn't really pack a punch, but is OK as a pop song.

A nice album full of fab tracks, that flow well and have a lot of energy. There is something here for everybody. It's good to hear The Zutons original of 'Valerie', but also to hear Winehouse version. She had an amazing voice and on this version she... See full review

Meh, another Stereophonics album that leaves you wanting so much more. It's just so mediocre, I just don't want to bother. I guess the problem though is me, I want them to be a class rock band, but really they are just a pop band who like to do mellow... See full review

This is an odd album, I have been a fan of Plumb and enjoyed most of her albums. This album is dedicated to her young child, and what it means to be a mother. Maybe if I was a mother I would understand this more, but as a father of two crazy boys who... See full review
