81That the archaic should sound this fresh is at least a mini-miracle.
-
In comparison with many imitators, Tanaka does what he does well... [Aug 2001, p.88]
-
20Devoid of Tanaka's usual unpredictability, Beautiful is bland, linear and frequently downright dull, with entirely too many six, seven and eight-minute songs running out of ideas long before the halfway mark.
