Creedence Clearwater Revival — Cosmo's Factory | DeRank™: 0,81

The masterpiece by the Californian band, a collection of classics to make legions of bands envious. Fogerty here brings out the best with tracks like "Long As I Can See The Light," "Up Around the Band," "Lookin' Out My Backdoor," and so on. An exceptional, fun album of rock 'n roll/country/soul based on simple yet effective structures and the great "black" voice of the leader... more

Spirogyra — St. Radigunds | DeRank™: 0,00

Bought yesterday thinking they were the American Spirogyra, the jazz-fusion ones, I realized that I made a mistake. Good album of English folk in the style of Fairport, enriched by the angelic voice of singer Barbara Gaskin, their debut record and perhaps their best... rating 3.5. more

Steve Hackett — Voyage Of The Acolyte | DeRank™: 0,00

Here the English guitarist does a great job showcasing all his immense qualities, collaborating with his long-time colleagues such as Rutherford and Collins and other excellent musicians. Notable are the stunning "Ace of Wands," "cattiva" and fast, the dreamy "Hands of the Priestess," and the masterpiece of the album, the concluding "Shadow of the Hierophant"... more

Genesis — Selling England By The Pound | DeRank™: 3,00

I don't know how to define it, I can't find the words. I'm having a hard time since I said that Foxtrot is the best. I had forgotten about this gem and the battle is tough.
Firth of Fifth is the best track on the album and you can tell just from the opening, a pseudo-instrumental, meaning it's not always featuring Peter's wonderful voice. Dancing with the Moonlight Knight, on the other hand, is very voice-driven. Then there's something to say about Battle of Epping Forest: to understand it, to savor it, it needs to be listened to. more

Jack Black | DeRank™: 3,20

Super funny, goofy, rock'n'roll and a bit of a jerk (in a good way). I really respect him, especially for the love he puts into rock, which he sees as a magical and wild world, and with Tenacious D he has managed to write pieces that, even in a comedic key, have well-known references to bands like Black Sabbath, The Who, and AC/DC. Great Nachooooo!! more

The Police | DeRank™: 0,00

Great even though it could have lasted longer (great respect for Copeland). I also appreciate Every Breath You Take, that arpeggio very "forced melancholy to make a heartbreaking piece to then sell out" is very touching. As an album, I fondly remember Reggatta and the same Synchro... more

Elton John — Leather Jackets | DeRank™: 0,00

Wait... But is the author of this immense monstrosity really the same one who in 1970 covered Nick Drake and released albums like "Elton John" and "Tumbleweed Connection"? By golly, of course, huge success, copious amounts of cocaine, and inspiration at zero degrees make for a devastating cocktail. Reduced to an artistically null caricature, this is the ugliest album of all Elton John's ugly albums, something that in comparison makes "The One" from '92 look like a masterpiece. more
