I suppose, with any artist and any album, if you get one really good song that you can take with you, and have it for ages to listen to, then i suppose it must therefore be ok. This album has four great songs. Track one and of course Chocolate, Spitting Games and Run,which are catchy. Lead vocalist has a beautiful and strong Irish voice, which is lovely.
Just disappointed with the rest of album, you sometimes have to ask, why it is some artist can;t just 12 truely fabulous tracks.

I can understand why fans of Davis' jazz fusion, jazz rock and electric stuff may find this bland since it was recorded before he decided to explore that newer territory (which I find weird and disappointing). It represents just one part of his journey from the Rhumboogie Orchestra in 1944, via bop and Gill Evans, to the synthesizer-enhanced(?) din he was making towards the end of his career. Only a few days after this session was recorded Coltrane cut "Giant Steps", which is a fair indication of the direction he was a taking.

However, for me and thousands of others this is a beautiful record, with all the musicians performing at their (then) peak. Even Coltrane makes a beautiful sound and they all swing mightily when that is appropriate ... Read More:

It strikes me how nobody is talking about how awful this record sounds. It is loud, compressed... It seems to have been mixed directly into an mp3 player; the saddest thing of all is that it has some of the better songs Weller has ever written... Someone has to do something with the awful sounding records released today, because nobody seems to notice.

My son loves this CD and often asks for it to be on at breakfast (much to my wife's annoyance !)

Compared to other children's CDs I have to say it's the least irritating , but one thing that irks is some songs have a couple of verses while others (usually the ones you really like !) only have little snippets

This is a terrific CD, with its wild meld of celtic, pop, folk, and country strains. The Chieftains, accompanied by such music greats as Sting, Mick Jagger, Sinead O'Connor, The Rolling Stones, Marianne Faithfull, Tom Jones, Van Morrison, among others...who would have thought such an assemblage would result in such a cohesive recording of such wildly divergent music? Of particular note are Sting's mournful rendition of "Mo Ghile Mear" and Sinead O'Connor's stylization of "The Foggy Dew" and "He Moved Through The Fair". Mick Jagger also does justice to "A Long Black Veil". This CD is simply a great recording overall!

Yep. Track 21 (The World is Not Enough) is performed by someone called Garbage and talk about living up to one's name... How did someone who has no voice wind up singing a Bond song? *shakes head in disbelief* Actually, after kd lang's sublime performance of Surrender, the rest of the CD is not worth listening to. Before that, however, it's a lovely trip down memory lane listening to good sings sung by singers who can, well, sing.....

For someone who liked Hot Fuss, but didn't go crazy for it I find it bewildering that so many people think it was superior to Sam's Town. I have to sorry to those people but you are wrong Sam's Town is a fantastic album and clearly superior to HF in every aspect. Hot Fuss was a good first effort and Sam's Town is the coming of age of a band I think are just about the best around. Love it!

Yet another brilliant album, from Thunder.
I have to say that their recent albums are much better than their earlier albums (although I do still love back street symphony).
Can't wait to see them on tour again, as they're fantastic live too!

Welcome back to the blues Mick Fleetwood its been a long time coming but well worth the wait, This album "Blue Again!" Blue Again! (Plus Bonus Disc)is very evocative of the early blues of Peter Greens Fleetwood Mac and is a must for all fans of their early albums. Mick has lost none of his magic and with his current band brings the memories flooding back. Long may he continue and please lets have more of "Mick Fleetwood Blues Band" Brilliant!!!!
