"Jazzy, funky, ambient, psychedelic brilliance that actually improves with each listen. The perfect late night album - if you have to give it a label, call it 'Space Music'."
"'Let It Bleed' also qualifies, but this just edges it. Effortlessly straddling the sixties and seventies with some of the Stones' best songs. After this, they turned exile before becoming parodies."
"The perfect voice finally gets the songs it deserves: 'Angel Eyes', 'One For My Baby', 'Goodbye', et al - every track just oozes class. Even Frank considered this his best record"
"'Uncertain Smile' with its sublime Jools Holland solo proves the 80's weren't all bad. Get the 8 track version of Matt Johnson's masterpiece if you can - the last track makes it perfect."
"Okay, Revolver's probably more consistently great, but this one's got it all; from Beach Boys rockers to lullabies with almost every musical genre in between."
"Did Elvis ever improve upon 'Mystery Train' or 'Trying to Get to You'? Did anyone else, for that matter? And the rest of the album ain't exactly chopped liver. Rock music starts here."
