Aren't you tired of 5 star ratings yet?

Sat, 12 Aug 2000 01:55:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - It has got to be saying something about the album when you look at the reviews list and every one of them has a five star rating. And while I am usually one who disaggrees with the crowd, Junta definatly deserves it.

Junta was Phish's first...

Tricky is on the rise...

Thu, 13 Jul 2000 03:35:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - In my opinion, Tricky's released albums have followed an easily graphable trend. He started off with Maxinquaye which was (without trying to sound too cliched) brilliant. He then released an album under the name of Nearly God. While not as critically...

Is it experimental or just a bunch of unlistenable junk?

Thu, 22 Jun 2000 00:34:13 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - First of all, let me start off by going ahead and mentioning that I am a HUGE Tricky fan. I was enthralled by him when he was in Massive Attack, and I followed his transition into the solo world (or accually more of a duet world with the beautiful...

Free Your Mind indeed...

Sat, 20 May 2000 03:14:31 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - Free Your Mind And Your Ass Will Follow (from this point on refered to as "Free Your Mind") was Funkadelic's second album, following their self titled debut. With this new album, comes the addition of new members, and some original members...

Funkadelic sure does sound like Parliament...

Tue, 18 Apr 2000 03:36:01 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - Parliament and Funkadelic have always been two entirely different groups, with two entirely different sounds. What keeps them linked is that George Clinton is the head-master of both, and members from each group jump from group to group. It is amazing...

One of the best players for the price

Tue, 18 Apr 2000 01:44:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - Last summer I decided that my old portable CD player was due for a replacement. I had long been in love with that old thing, and I found it hard to imagine living with another portable CD player (such a sad story). So, after the funeral service for my...

Acceptable set of headphones, but rather pointless.

Mon, 17 Apr 2000 22:00:05 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - This was one of the first sets of digital reference stereo headphones that I had. I remember walking through the store and seeing them, saying to myself "Geez, look at the size of those things! They must be a great set - and geez look at the...

The wacky, crazy, and funked up vibes will flow!

Sun, 16 Apr 2000 22:51:25 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - Just when you thought Parliament had peaked in their creativity with Funkentelechy Vs. The Placebo Syndrome, George Clinton takes some more LSD...

Ever since Chocolate City, it seems as if Parliament gets more and more crazy with each theme on...

This is it - The Pinacle of Parliament's Music

Sat, 15 Apr 2000 02:37:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - Funkentelechy Vs. The Placebo Syndrome is considered by many, including myself, to be the best album produced by Parliament. It was released in 1977 after the Live Earth Tour and Clones Of Dr. Funkenstein. I believe that they have outdone themselves...

Chocolate City - Parliament warms up the funk...

Fri, 14 Apr 2000 23:59:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - Many fans would agree that Chocolate City is where Parliament started displaying the funky jams that would later evolve into Mothership Connection, Funkentelechy Vs. The Placebo Syndrome, and their other albums that came later. This is Parliament's...

A Good follow-up to The Mothership Connection

Fri, 14 Apr 2000 23:05:28 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - It was around the time of The Clone Of Dr. Funkenstein (1976) that Parliament and Funkadelic were reaching the heights of their popularity. After the release of The Mothership Connection, Parliament was storming over the entire world giving up the funk...

The Breakout Funkadelic Album

Sun, 5 Mar 2000 04:49:08 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - As many funk fans know, George Clinton was the mind behind such creations as Parliament, and Funkadelic. These are two different bands entirely, with members from each occasionally showing up on each other's albums - and with George Clinton standing as...

The Madcap Laughs

Tue, 30 Nov 1999 23:23:21 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - Syd Barrett's The Madcap Laughs is quite possibly one of the hardest albums to review. If you see reviews of it, they will probably be rave reviews (5 stars) or reviewers who totally pan it (1 star). I usually credit this to a certain deepness of the...

The Final Cut is only for a specific audience.

Wed, 6 Oct 1999 00:42:16 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - I really hate to give 5 stars to yet another album that Roger Waters had to do with; I don't want to seem like I would give anything that Roger touches 5 stars. But man, this album just deserves every pixel that goes into that little 5 star graphic.

Roger Waters - Amused to Death...Does it live up to previously set standards?

Tue, 5 Oct 1999 22:19:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - Amused to Death is Roger Water's highest rated album that he has put out. But does Roger live up to his own standards? Well, I would have to say a very hesitant "no". I have had a hard time trying to figure out how to rate this CD. I...

Once you understand it, the music of Roger Waters runs deep

Sun, 3 Oct 1999 02:31:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tranquilityallstar - I must start off by stating that Roger Waters is NOT for anyone. You must be a patient and willing person to understand his music. The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking is probably the most un-understood album by Roger Waters. This is due to a very...
