"Waysted-Tyketto-Solo. Always had a gr..." more

"Waysted-Tyketto-Solo. Always had a great voice. Lyrics are a bit earnest, a bit "I'd die for you", but no arguing with the quality of the songs or musicianship. What's with the piddly cover-art eMusic?" less

"Got this by mistake thinking it was t..." more

"Got this by mistake thinking it was the Arc Angels, Roger Waters, Jellybean, Smokestack man. What a pleasant surprise. Hugely enjoyable album!" less

"Roots rocker comes of age. Not to be ..." more

"Roots rocker comes of age. Not to be confused with his son (see Fitchburg Street)." less

"Welcome back Frankie. It's been a lon..." more

"Welcome back Frankie. It's been a long hard road." less

"Northern Irish rivals to The Answer? ..." more

"Northern Irish rivals to The Answer? I think not. Pretty good though." less

"Second album from this NI band. Handi..." more

"Second album from this NI band. Handily, both albums fit onto one CD!" less

"Lex Koritni's first album (I think). ..." more

"Lex Koritni's first album (I think). Man's got a voice like an airraid siren, "Barnesian" would be one way to describe it." less

"Dodgy cover. Good album. Forget the s..." more

"Dodgy cover. Good album. Forget the so-so reviews." less

"Jess, Jess, where you been? One of th..." more

"Jess, Jess, where you been? One of the most underrated British singers ever plays it dirty, play it class once again. Far more rocky than some of his solo stuff. More like the Jess Roden Band albums. Which suits this old rocker just fine. And there's me thinking he'd probably mellowed with age." less

"Lex sounds like Jimmy Barnes's younge..." more

"Lex sounds like Jimmy Barnes's younger brother. Must be something in the water down in Aus." less

"Cracking AC/DC cover. The rest is pre..." more

"Cracking AC/DC cover. The rest is pretty high-octane, too. Recorded live in Paris. (Couldn't quite work that one out either!)" less

"My first MM album. Never really picke..." more

"My first MM album. Never really picked up on them before. This is good! Hawkwind via Kyuss thru' Steppenwolf a la Black Sabbath. A real discovery. Shall definitely be downloading more MM." less

"Robin hasn't got the strongest of voi..." more

"Robin hasn't got the strongest of voices (he handles all vocals here). But how do you follow one of the all-time greats in Jimmy Dewar? Current (and past) vocalist Davey Pattison is no slouch either. Tasty guitar work goes without saying. The master gurner is one of the all-time greats. Has Robin ever put out a bad album? (Answer is no by the way.) Shite cover, mind!" less

"Not as good as Mouthful Of Love; lack..." more

"Not as good as Mouthful Of Love; lacks that pure adrenaline rush, but, having last heard that they'd split up, this was a real surprise. Their second best album so far! It's good, really!" less
