I realize that there are many people disappointed that the original music was not included, which I can understand.  But then again, the rest of the shows are still in tact.  Besides, what's the alternative?  Finding some second-rate bootlegs on eBay that are often overpriced and poor quality?  This show still gets the praise it deserves with it's wonderful cast, supporting cast, direction, and writing.  Still one of the best shows ever on television.

Muse remains my rock of choice and they continue to satisfy. The sound has evolved somewhat in this album from the prior albums, I assume as experimentation in current trends, but the classic Muse is still in there and still rocks a long road trip like no other.

Don't be misled by my title; this is still a fine collection of songs.  "Baby What A Big Surprise" and "If You Leave Me Now" are both fine mellow hits, and tracks like the very catchy "Alive Again" and the nice non-hit "Gone Long Gone" are also quality tracks.  Overall, though, this collection doesn't quite hold up to either their quality, unique brand of rock in the early '70s or their sparkling, gorgeous pop of the '80s.  This in between period was a bit of a downer for the band, but the songs are still very good to great.  Definitely a worthwhile purchase that covers the band's career in the mid to late '70s.

Great album, not as good as some previous releases in my opinion. Still worth the buy if you grew up with thievery corp like I did. They still have their signature sound on this album.

Even though the game's a few years old, there's still plenty of active servers. Many are devoted to just a few particular levels. Worth getting.

Motorhead seemed to take some flack with changing up their sound with 1991's "1916" and even though it seems to show that the four year abscence of studio time seemed to hurt the band, there are still five killer cuts here that make the album worth a purchase. "IM so bad", "No Voices in the Sky", "Make my Day", and "Shut you Down" are classic Motorhead, and the Ramones track isn't that bad either. The rest seems like some bad filler, and a bit mellow for the band, but like I said it could have been due to lack of studio time, or the fact this I believe was the first album they recorded with a major label. Sometimes record companies can influence bands the wrong way in which to appeal more to the masses, and this seemed to be the case with "1916" but once again, its not all that bad and it is worth adding to your collection. The Dismal release of the next album "March or Die" was probely due to the fact that Sony Records had a say in the material they recorded, but this one at least has a few good songs that make it a solid release. ENJOY

Although their previous album was great, this is even better still. It's much more accessible without sacrificing any of the authentic flavor that made the other one fantastic. Highly recommend. The extra tracks are worth it also. Hint: it's cheaper to buy the non-extended album then buy the extra tracks individually.

I'm a big fan and basically consider "Fox Confessor Brings the Flood" as a desert-island disc. "Middle Cylone" was still quite wonderful, but something changed a bit on this album. The previous albums had some incredibly powerful songs and while this album has them, there are just fewer occurrences of them. Perhaps it's the characterizations of "Fox Confessor..." that set that album apart and the mixture of good interpretations of others' work ("Never Turn Your Back on Mother Earth", "Don't Forget Me") coupled with some whimsy ("This Tornado Loves You", about a dream she had about a tornado with romantic tendancies, along with "Middle Cylone" and the goofy instrumentation chosen for that son). Nothing on this album quite tugs at the heartstring as when Neko sings "...and I choke it back, how much I need love" on "Middle Cyclone".

That said, this is still a really solid effort but I agree with those fans who recognize that it is not her best work. While swearing in songs does not shock me at this point in my life, I did find it mildly disappointing that some of the catchier tunes relied on F-bombs that might prevent the entire family from partaking in Neko's still-gorgeous voice. The album really peaks with "Calling Cards" and "City Swans", the most toe-tapper of the lot. "Calling Cards" especially recalls some of Neko's more touching songs such as "Middle Cyclone" and "At Last", but it's the climb towards a climax at the end when Neko really could let loose but doesn't quite when she sings "with our arms around each other/and our faith still in each other". It's this dance with the edge of a climax that I so enjoy in Neko's songs; and had there been a bit more of that here, I'd rate this at 5 stars instead of 4.

I won't say anything here about the content that we all know and love, it's as fantastic as it was from the beginning. But, some clarification is in order concerning all the tons of "remastered" versions of it available. Of all the CD's of it that have been issued so far (about 10, at least), there's only ONE that offers superb sound quality (remarkably better that the original CD pressing, which itself is not all that bad, really, but a bit flat sounding) THAT'S STILL IN PRINT (as of 6/17/10). That's the version I'm reviewing here and it's one of TWO sonically very DIFFERENT Dreamboat Annies released in 2008. The one you want is the import issued from EMI/Japan (TOCP-70616). The other is a less expensive reissue in very similar-looking cardbord sleeve packaging that does not sound as good that's from the label Collectables Records. There may be two other CD versions that sound this good, but I can't confirm it as I haven't heard those, but they're both currently out of print and now have prices at least around 80 bucks. Some extinct, high fidelity versions have price tags that are now several hundred dollars(!) As it is now, this version is selling, new, for around $45 through Amazon, but, even so, I suspect you may want to strike soon, as I don't know when this title itself will go out of print - and, when it does, you KNOW what will happen to the price... One option may be to keep an eye on the Amazon sellers and wait for a bagain - I got mine through a trusted CD seller for about $19 (shipping included) around 3 weeks ago, so the deals may still be out there, you may just have to willing to wait for them. Be cautious with the other remaining "remastered" versions of Dreamboat, though. More than one or two have already garnered reputations (in these pages and others) as sounding rather worse than the original CD pressing, which itself, in turn, was worse than the original vinyl edition, and other versions, if you already have, for example, the original CD pressing, may not offer a significant enough of an upgrade in sound to warrant replacing it. But, in all honesty, I DO feel that THIS version would be worth the money, as the experience for me now surpasses even the towering impression it had on me back in the day, and, yes, the soundstage is once again not only wide, but plentifully deep. And instrument separation is remarkable. Now THIS is the kind of remaster that an album of this stature truly deserves.

Compared to some of their albums, no, this isn't the best of their work. Beatles for Sale is still a good album to buy. It may not have as many strong tracks as others, this still has some great songs (I'll Follow the Sun). There are also some really good songs that aren't famous, such as Honey Don't. Overall, looking back, this is a really good album. It just feels like it is missing something that their other albums had.

While this album may not be as excellent as Against the Grain, Stranger than Fiction or the Empire Strikes first, this is still a must have for BR fans.

I can'r remember how long ago I purchased this book, but i can tell it's been a while and the price has increased. It's still absolutely worth owning. Lots of fun for kids and the grownups who read to them, it still sits in a place of honor in my living room and I have envious friends who threaten to steal it. Hey, it's on Amazon! Get your own copy. Note: I would recommend buying this new if at all possible, or at least in "As New" condition.

Being a ST fan since 87 and hearing their sound change drasticly after Suicidal for Life, I still like them but to me they haven't hit their ST roots.(How will I laugh, Lights Camara Revolution era). This album is much better than there last 2. A good buy for hard rock, metal or punk fans

Two years after this album came out, I'm still finding some of the songs I never really listened to catching on for me. This is one of them. :)

I pre-ordered this album based on my love for "Too Far to Care" and rumors that the 97's were going back to their older stuff after "Fights Songs" wandered a little too far from their roots.  The lyrics -- always a strength -- are still good, and it feels less "pop" than "Fight Songs," but I still prefer the old sound.  I just got into the Old 97's a few months ago, so it's not nostalgia that makes me prefer "Too Far to Care."  On "Satellite Rides," there are still some jewels:  "Rollerskate Skinny," "Up the Devil's Pay," and "Designs On You."  And that's enough to make it worth the price of admission.

This album has taken some time to grow on me, but it's a good effort by the band.  Too bad the reunion didn't last.

The songs are an outgrowth from their earlier work; not much in the way of hits here, but still worth listening to.
