"Unusual music for unusual moods. This continuous 60 minute piece serves as an effective two fingered salute to the manufactured pop world, while still retaining an air of accessibility."
"(In my view) Oldfield's masterpiece. A thoroughly engrossing, irresistible and at times moving work, without trashing all over the first revered volume released 19 years earlier."
"I don't know all about Mr Corea or even like all the tracks on this album. All I will say is that Rumble, Side Walk and King Cockroach are amongst the songs that got me listening to modern jazz."
"One of the most popular albums of classical music. Look beyond the hype and discover such energy and vitality in a recording that you are ever likely to find. There are some serious hooks in here!"
"Lovely compilation of Neil Hannon's comedic musings about love and life. Joby Talbot's surprisingly grand scale orchestral arrangements are breathtaking, particularly on 'In Pursuit of Happiness'."
"A wonderful weaving of different styles, giving international ethnic music a certain unity. Forget the dancing and enjoy the emotion and compositional prowess of this work in its own right."
"Their most indulgent work, for the most part discarding the tight and catchy pop formula they became most famous and popular for. Deep and introspective, this is music composed for love, not money."
"It's refreshing to hear a piano at the heart a pop/rock orientated album. This is a wonderfully flippant and at times acerbic journal of Folds' skewed take on life."
"Encapsulating the beauty and simplistic sincerity of Cat Stevens' work, this album shows off the skill and originality of one of the most important and overlooked singer/songwriters."
"Buckley's influence can be heard today in the form of the latest wave of British indie bands. His life was cut cruelly short, depriving the world of a rising star and a hugely talented singer."
"It isn't an over-estimation to say that nearly every track is a masterpiece. It's just so refreshingly different, hilarious, engrossing and brilliant all at the same time. A triumph of pure genius!"
