In the end, I believe the hardest thing is to write a melody that stays. Despite a website listing reasons not to consider them great, I’m not falling for it! No one before them has written songs as beautiful and complete; before, they were just little tunes, but with them, they became songs. more

More than a talent, despite his young age he had already shown great versatility in multiple genres. What a shame... more

Glenn Hughes | DeRank™: 3,00

A great character, starting off strong, but then like many, he fell into excesses that hindered his career. He was reborn at 40, producing one album after another, making up for lost time, building a respectable career between Funk (his passion) and Hard Rock. more

I own it... unfortunately! Like the next (better) "Life and Times." A nice surprise is the latest "Silver Age," a welcome return to the sounds of the "Sugar." Rating: 2.5 more

Simple Minds — New Gold Dream | DeRank™: 0,94

The emblem of the fundamental album. The '80s Synth-Pop, period. Derek Forbes, the man who taught a generation of bassists how to play and one of those who MADE the evolution of the instrument - in the genre and in the decade. If I had to choose ONE track (I would choose them all): "Big Sleep" - here they are, the '80s. more

Yoko Ono: "For this record, I wrote pieces like Kiss Kiss Kiss because I wanted to create something that resembled Lucky Number by Lene Lovich." What more can be added, everyone can comment as they wish... more

I own it and I like it! "Controversial" album? Well... I've always liked it, many of the tracks hit the mark, maybe the production (Robert Fripp) didn't satisfy Gabriel himself... more

Welcome back to form with the latest album featuring Steve Perry on vocals. All the ingredients are there for a fantastic "AOR," from the voice to Neil Schon's beautiful guitar, blending with the piano melodies of Jonathan Cain. more

Respectable return to form for the group, generally regarded as a good effort by critics, features a couple of classics...neither too bad nor particularly praiseworthy. Rating 3.5 more

Rating 3.5: full of little "Power Pop" gems, bought a while ago while traveling around Europe.
The next one includes one of their most catchy songs, "Crybaby." more

Cheap Trick — Dream Police | DeRank™: 0,00

The first four albums by Cheap Trick can easily be bought as a package; this one is perhaps the least essential to own, yet it represents their last solid work. After this, there were many experiments... for those who love Power Pop. Rating 3.5 more
