We're aware Zac... and Mandrake too.  He's not the only one.

We're gonna deal with it but it takes time.

Howz about this one?

PINK FLOYD Wish You Were Here progressive rock album and reviews Psychedelic/Space Rock
(Studio Album, 1975)
Avg: 4.63/5
from 231 ratings
PINK FLOYD "Wish You Were Here"
4 stars by howza112
Gilmour's playing is never better as always....Opening riff is killer. This guy really knows how to phrase and choose the proper notes at the right time....Sounds easy but is very tough! I would rate this album very close to Dark Side...( I know most will crusify me for this) . Songs are just as good, so it didn't chart for 10 + years in row...Big deal. I actually think Meddle, Dark Side, Wish You Were Here are the best records they put out...The Wall to me has its moments but not quite the magic of those 3 albums. That being said i own the whole collection and would recommend listening to their entire collection. GREAT STUFF!

Good-oh!

Question of principle - are you interested in old reviews? I've come across one or two bad-ish ones going back a couple of years, but not sure if it's worth reporting them, or just letting them sleep in peace ......

Regards

Joolz,

Yes, please report any old reviews which you feel are inappropriate.

We're checking also those old reviews, Joolz. However if you find some worthy to be dealt with you may inform me via PM and I'll check them. Thanks!

EDIT: almost same time again.  The option via PM was in order not to crowd this thread.

Old ones too? How about this one, even if it is from a Special Collaborator...

THE FLOWER KINGS Space Revolver
1 stars by Sean Trane (Hugues Chantraine)

[Special Collaborator Prog-Folk Specialist]

Read my other F K critics as I don't like to repeat myself. But I will have to find something to write if my opinion (which nobody cares for anyway) is to be seen - are we at fifty words yet?

All kidding aside and not wanting to hurt anybody's feelings , Spend your hard earned cash on other Swedish groups that are more worthy of your support.

Well, at least someone cares...

BTW, this review is dated Feb, 17, 2004. Hugues and many other SCs/PRs are committed to check all their early reviews and eventually edit/improve some of them.

Not the greatest review ever, but I don't see any need to remove it.

chopper, deletion is not 'the end of the world'... sometimes it is the beginning. There are now 2 or 3 reviewers doing an excellent job which some reviews were deleted in the past.

Yes from time to time this crops up ... when Hugues first joined the site more than two years ago, he put in quite a few reviews, which he now admits were not up to standard ... he intends to revisit them soon ... bear in mind that he has written over 1,500 reviews and is doing work for the site in terms of band addition so may not have enough time to revisit all our these in the near future ...

Does anyone know the meaning of fools overture?

When everyone is sleeping the boats put out to sea --> d-day?? (beginning lyrics)







If you have a question, ask it on the forum.

QUEENSRŸCHE Tribe
3 stars by alepian79
Still have to listen to this one. But what I know is that you should have credited Chris DeGarmo as guitarist in the line-up. Even if he didn't join the tour, he recorded Tribe with the other guys: there's plenty of pics proving it!

Fair enough. I just came across this review because I picked up the album on a sale and was curious how it was reviewed here.

JETHRO TULL A Passion Play
by federico2_barbarossa
REALLY: 1,02 (NOT BUY!!!)

It know because I put down this album? Why it is not Tull not even 5%! Resonable music, but too cheerful. Good the refrain, thing that I appreciate. But unfortunately it is a too "artificial" disc. with "artificial" feelings and music. I ask excuse... But I see it so.

Posted Monday, February 06, 2006, 11:40 EST


Cheerful? Not to mention it's too short IMO.



This one's too short too I think:

JETHRO TULL A Passion Play
by Wonder_Warriors
My favourite Jethro Tull album. This album has all the trademark brilliance of Tull yet it is more adventurous in its layout and more dark in its subject matter. The instrumentation is unmatched by any other Tull album i have heard. A must have.

There are more such short and not too informative reviews of Jethro Tull's albums, especially from a guy named l-s-d. They're rather old, dated 2004.
