Disc 1. One of my few forays into the world of classical music - very nice it is too!

A mixed bag of reviews in the press. 2 stars in the Guardian and 5 stars in the Telegraph.

A major problem with reviews?

Just pick the ones that agree with yourself ?

Can't say I'm a great fan,I was surprised to find I have a copy of Youth and Young Manhood, and there a few others in the boys collection if I need more.

Mixed reviews tend to lead to a mixed album.

Overall I find reviews very useful, especially when the consensus give a positive review, you are normally onto a winner. Without reviews of albums I had never heard of, there would be so many great records that I now own missing from my collection.

I like it! It's more upbeat and direct than their earlier albums. It a lot like "Only By The Night", yet sounds and feels like a fun summer album.

"The Last Beat Of My Heart" is one of my favorite sounds. Musically and lyrically, that song is wonderful.
