"Water Of Love" is swayingly seductive in a tropical-rhythm type way. "Wild West End" is very soothing listening. "Sultans of Swing" is, thank the Lord, "Sultans Of Swing", pr...more |

The first foray into the album world for Dire Straits takes place in 1978. I remember walking down the road at 18 with my reasonably bulky radio jammed up against my ear (against my mother's wishes, against my arm's wishes and before the more discreet Sony Walkman was born) listening avidly to "Sultan's Of Swing". It certainly put a bounce in the step. Mesmerised by this new sound that had been wrung out of a guitar, I dashed off the buy the album. I wasn't disappointed then,although "Setting Me Up" has for some reason always grated on me, but looking back over their illustrious career I realise that this ...

Joyful Antics. 
Wears Thin About Half Way Through. Wonderful music, relaxing May not be what you expect A great mix of songs, amusing and often insightful lyrics, wonderfully nostalgic of the early 90s You missed the reformation tour! Whole things makes you feel good. None Moody and atmospheric Could have done with a couple more tracks, but then I'm being greedy.. They're still dabbling with styles None if you like Dire StraitsSimian Supremacy - Goat The Head
Some decent instrumental work, the album is interesting for a few minutes. The gimmick is irritating, the riffs are recycled, and the sound is incredibly unoriginal.
Wavy Gravy Vol 1: For Adult Enthusiasts
My favourite compilation (or part of it) Seems to have been censored
The Sagas Of... - Klashnekoff
Intelligent lyrics full of passion over excellent production sound like PARROWDICE to my eardrums! Some lame skits. The beats provided for SON OF NIAH are kind of a hit and miss.
The Platinum Collection - Morcheeba
Dance & Electronic - Electronica - 2005
Talisman: In The Studio & On Stage - Ian Gillan
Heavy Metal - 2004
Live At Bull Moose - Regina Spektor
How Could Hell Be Any Worse - Bad Religion
Classic Californian punk, with a nicely raw sound. Few songs distinguish themselves.
Greatest Hits - Simon & Garfunkel
Great Music. None
Getback - Little Brother
Quite original Little Variation
Fears In The Water - The Vincent Black Shadow
The vocals are excellent, the guitars possess great power. Too many of the tracks here are incredibly instrumentally repetitive.
