The song in question is impeccable, among his best: few words to describe, in a dry and simple manner, that great theme of life which is forgiveness in love. Tenco was great, truly great... a real shame that his life and music were cut short at twenty-nine: he deserved a career like Lucio Dalla or De André.

Chris's vocal talent, not at all inferior to his instrumental skills, endowed Yes with a unique and unrepeatable image in the choirs. I consider the passing of The Fish to be a mortal blow to Yes... Thank you for everything, Chris, you've been amazing!

Flash now more ornate and “heavy”, therefore… nonetheless welcome back! Listening to this work allows the spectrum of Bennett’s talent to be broadened: he is also an interesting guitarist, obviously very melodic and fairly refined.

Rick Nielsen is the most clear-headed, balanced, economical, intelligent, passionate, and prepared musician there is. Great voice, great and deep guitars, great and thundering bass, great drums, great ideas, great personality, and inspiration... the first album by Cheap Trick was an epiphany for me.

The strengths of the quartet were primarily the spectacular guitar playing of the leader Alvin Lee. An album where rock still breathes, respects its dynamics, drags without deafening.

A pleasant mediocrity is quickly apparent, there’s artisanal passion but it could use a pinch of salt, genius, a bit more spirit. The drummer really holds back... making it melodically rich but terribly disjointed, lacking swing.

The Orchestra was truly a war machine, very powerful and fiery, and here you can feel all their impact on stage. McLaughlin is here at the best moment of his career: a great guitarist with his own convoluted yet intense and often surprising phrasing.
