Good work devs!! As far as Mandrakeroot, I found the original review he made of King Crimson's ITCOTCK. Here is the original review: KING CRIMSON In The Court Of The Crimson King FOREVER CLASSIC MUSIC OF THE XX CENTURY!!!
This is another album that a time listened to... It will do it enchant yourselves some Classic Music of XX Century! It is not of evening an album Symphonic, because has a lot pf sub genre inclusive in this eternal Masterpiece. That genius Robert Fripp! "21st Century Schizoid Man including Mirrors" is a piece of Prog Metal (like a lot make note me), even if is too Prog! Large everything, but above all Fripp and Lake (listened to attentive the test of Giles at the drum, also), "I Talk To The Wind" is a sweet example of Pure Symphonic Prog, really immortal (is an of the better songs of the Crimson), "Epitaph including March For No Reason and Tomorrow And Tomorrow" is a piece to the VDGG that nevertheless can be put next to the pieces of Genesis (Gabriel Era), Gentle Giant without disfigure. And yet it is a song with a large personality! Besides it is totally different from "21st Century..." showing that the Prog has a lot (too much?) sub genre that often are alone variations of a same sub genre also to the inside of a same sub genre (hope to have expressed well the concept...). "Moonchild including The Dream and The Illusion" begins with a Jazz that in reality is not Jazz but Classic Music with a large work of Giles. Nevertheless then it it becomes too Psychedelic, improvvisation, Jazz free form, Futurism and Japanese music. Well, a sole many piece of Canterbury Scene! It Closes "The Court Of The Crimson king including The Return Of The Fire Witch and The Dance Of The Puppets" that return to the Hard Rock but if with enormous amounts of the Uriah Heep more Prog and an atmosphere a little one (but very little) more (and this is weird) cheerful. That album, mister, that album! It does not seem not even carved in 1969! For always yours, Mandrakeroot. Posted Monday, April 10, 2006, 05:35 EST | Permanent link
^^^ Notice the date on it. Obviously someone copied this review. I sure hope it was NOT Mandrakeroot!

MANDRAKEROOT is entirely innocent here. Someone is copying his reviews, along with others, and posting them with ratings which clearly do mot match the text. While the reviews bear different names, they are from the same IP address. I have removed the offending reviews, and will watch for any new ones. |

This is a blatant attempt to manipulate the ratings and both should be deleted! |

True. If I just read the review, I can imagine he gives it 2 or 3 stars, but not 1.

Only today I read this topic and I should say what happened at my review of ITCOTCK is really a case that does to ponder on what it is found in Internet. Also I, previously, I used other Nick Name (I admit it) but I had serious personal problems (not still of everything resolved) that carried to make those moved me. I admit it. I believe that a review, to the of it of the vow, should serve to understand how a disc is done. We take the case of "Deep Purple Live". I do not kinow if this is a bootleg or if is true how much explained myself about the copyright that expire and other things but believe that also an album with awful records should be appraised in artistic or historical sense. And it it is able to be a masterpiece. Like this is. Then I appraised it 4 stars for the quality of the records... It is not a problem. But that an arrivals to hate a person and used of the album that hates to descredit this person (beyond to the album) does not go me well. Besides the Porcupine Tree (of which I have alone "In Absentia") I is not favorite ny group, I do not understand until in fund the their Prog (that myself is not Prog) but I respect them and I admit that produce excellent music.
I respect the opinions of PA and understood when were removed album that I had introduced because the justifications were just. Nevertheless also I should admit that there are persons that do not think it so and ruin how much of voucher comes done. I is not between those. I consider myself a serious person and in a position of to admit that also in Rap/ Hip-Hop there are interesting album so like in other musical genre. And it is with this sincerity that I will continue to review Prog album and the Prog World.

I think the first thing Tony does in the morning (probably even before relieving his bladder) is check up on Rush reviews. He does once more before leaving the house, once more at morning coffee break, twice during lunch time, once in the afternoon coffee break and at least three times in the evening , the last just as he is about to hit the sack. Depending on the number of fake Rush reviews he found, he will be able to honour his wife. And if he does honour her, before diving to sleep , he will check the Archives once more.

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |
