DecSloan Jan 20, 2025
This is my featured vinyl for this week on my blog, A.D.R.E.W. (A Different Record Every Week) link below...

https://decsloan.wixsite.com/adrew/post/graceland

The concept is simple - to share a new record from my vinyl collection every week along with a short review including, my favourite track, a suggested listening environment and further related recommendations. My aim is to get more people listening to albums again, the way they were intended to be played.
robin.kent.3386 Feb 18, 2019
My version has a matrix runabout to match variant two as listed, but the label on the record does not have WX52 under 925 447-1 at the base. Embossed sleeve as described. Bought new in the UK
Jef.Records Jul 28, 2015
Found this in Sound It Out, Teesside for under a tenner. Ozzy lass at work recommended it to me, said it was a family favourite. It's easy to listen to, fun, happy record. Not much you can dislike about it I can see its appeal. Different from my usual tastes but can see me revisiting it again and again.
stevenaaron Feb 15, 2015
Could be the best pop album ever made- 7 top-quality songs included in this album; better overall than Thriller and Bad if you ask me.

Best songs on the album;

Boy in the Bubble
Graceland
I Know What I Know
Diamonds on the Souls of her Shoes
Crazy Love vol. II
You Can Call Me Al
Gumboots

Everything else ranges from garbage to OK
