...but it makes no sense whatsoever:
Richard Wright is my player of pink keyboard of Floyd. He has an interesting career with the playing keyboard and made its first aspect solo in 1978 on the wet dream. After eighteen years and the reference with pink Floyd between 1987 and 1994, Wright has an album solo of second which resounds much of time more different than the first. Environments of this mark I acute with the towels of the obviousness.
Broken beginnings of China with breaking water. It has an odd and mysterious feeling making my nose of the imp precipitate in anticipation with the shivers of the joy. This could be my greater nightmare, filled of tables never vibrating! Comes after the night from thousand toys to fur. I can imagine to spend my holidays in a store of toy and to see all these animals and stuffed toys of cuddly toy and to ask me what I could do all the night after being surrounded by them. I am not sure the lyric one gives this thought to me, but my brain indicates that the title would be more interesting. The music has a modern feeling in it, at all resembling its precursor.
To run around and hide my sauce papers and reagents. I do not know your hidden fear, but the mine forgets to go to classify to take a test and then realize I cannot drop the class because the period of fall finished last week. I do not believe that this song is on this subject, but it creates the sensation to me as it is on this subject and not on the subject about the EC what it is really. I want just to have a fuselage. The racing is a strange piece, not with the difference of the labels of can and juice distributors. The tendencies of tornado function in a foolish way with the Masters of puzzle and the dogs with the collars of bone and turtleneck.
The following song is called Unfair Ground, and believes you I, the ground can become completely unjust when you start and fall. I had much of a sniffing knee and elbows of plunger. To forget to shift my speeds when I see the keyboards and the drums my inequalities and ventilators of ceiling show. The satellite is a nice and pleasant song, although giving me the mysterious dense gas pockets. I mouse when I listen to him by a straw.
I love the woman of the habit. I am made on order, too. It is pleasant listens to and evokes harmonies of my ears and cries piercing with me with the telephones. The interlude comes then, but it is not as to be with films so that we should not really go in the bathroom. It gently persuades us to listen to the next stellar song.
Far from port the wall is a marvellous piece of the musical prowess of Wright. I appreciated this song much and even like listening by driving my car to him. I managed not to run above all the pedestrians and I always carry my cards crumb. The drummers, precise althought, then make me the wish for more clothes hampers of something gently. It keeps my feet in place.
The drowning is a short piece, nothing which excites remotely. Comes then reaching for the rail with some beautiful vocals by our Sinead preferred O' Connor. Its voice equips really well inside with Richard the ripe and ambient pieces of Wright. I rigid was impressed and done me please jump of my pyjamas and eat a pile of liquorice. After this are a few decent pieces in the blue room in at soft Venice and July. I think personally that July is too hot, but a blue room could make me the cooler of feeling.
Along Shoreline that nice reverbed has the line of guitar as the trade mark of Gilmour. It points out pink Floyd more to me then all the other ways. I have visions of the wheels of formation and go to the front of the flapbags of fried apples blocking the toilets. That returns just me to it good feeling everywhere. I can naturally escape from vegetables from the tomorrow and plant my ventilators in pots. The opening finishes the album on another ripe note, finishing things as they started, jumping madly in bins and newspapers.
In a general way, I like really broken China of Richard Wright. It has a nice mysterious feeling with it which infiltrates my lungs and spots of liver. There are pockets of galaxies covering my holidays of spring and large brains emitting the loose pieces of fire to me. I corn noise of can everywhere my house and always like avoiding brown stops and hassocks. A truly marvellous album, quite worthy of four holds the first role and an essential article for the pink ventilators of Floyd.

Maybe if you can - O, seriously, where's the meaning???This is a - well, I still can't find the words......it doesn't make sense, either as an attempt at English, nor as the output of a translation program (sack the programmer!)
I defy anyone to understand that........ |
4.37 Excellent addition to any prog music collection

OK, English isn't my native language but I'm almost sure that he didn't use an on-line translator or similar tool.
I bet this guy/girl is the same that months ago made an hilarious and innovative review of Genesis' SEBTP.

Yes, that review is a masterpiece, an amazing piece of poetry that I'd
never be able to top even if I tried hard. You actually need to be a
very prolific English speaker to compose something like that!
Check out this one(one of his older ones, it's also by Drain-o, so that's him for sure):
GENESIS "Selling England By The Pound" Review (Permanent link) by drain-o Posted 12:58:25 PM EST, 2/1/2006
I think that selling England by book is very marvellous. It is not as
good as foxtrot and of the crimes of seedbed, but it is always one of
best of all the hour, in the top of the twenty-five things. I like to
listen it by eating pizza pie with a table of picnic. Gabriel has its
voice to do a nice work and the load of lyric impresses me much. I
cannot guarantee the goods which you can appreciate, but it is livable.
It starts with a slow beginning but rises with the power and energy and
I like the fast movement. It trails then to the bottom with a slow
obliteration. It is like the effect Doppler of a train here and then
going far. I know that what I like in your garde-robe is ordered with
the lawn mower and the speech parts about the trousers and of the
potato gardens. It is a piece of music very pleasant completion of
interesting toothpaste and was one of them are the first blows. The
fifth of the fifth is the best song on the album. The elegant banks
makes a fantastic creation of the keyboards and the marvellous solo by
Steve Hackett on the guitar has me flight with eggs and bird's nests.
More imbecile I is right empty spaces. But it becomes better when we go
to the battle of the forest of Epping, a walking piece of historical
substance. It becomes complicated and I like times of signature
everywhere. Rutherford makes low nice. The second best song is last of
this seminal progressive work, the exposure of cinema. It beats me
foolish with its astonishing keyboard by elegant Banks and Phil Collins
eats its drums. With my ears, it is my best memory and with the fifth
of the fifth. The genesis would not have another album as this always
still as the lamb is downwards on Broadway would miss senselessness
soup and passing by again logicians of council. An incredibly important
work of progressive rock in the worlds and deserves holds five us the
first role that all likes to see.--JB There's no way in the world a translator would translate "selling England by book ". That means he inputed the titles in a different language, which no one would do.

RADIOHEAD — The BendsReview by EMinkovitch (Eliott Minkovitch)
Dross, dross and more dross! Endless boredom and noodling to fill the gaps, not progressive in any way even remotely - good, perhaps by today's standards, but can never stand beside the giants of the music that we call progressive rock. OK, so I am prog snob, but this is a prog site, so why the heck not? Now and then I listen to new bands, but they never fail to disappoint me, because they are so one-sided and shallow.

That kind of review makes me sick - thoughtless piffle designed to upset the fans - it says NOTHING about the music at all and is just an inflammatory troll.

This is an attempt at humour.There is no way that this is the product of an on-line translator or someone's broken English.

Review by zx2781 (Dan) Posted 6:31:21 PM EST, 7/7/2006
I will agree with a previous reviewer. Save Radiohead for mainstream alternative web sites, it doesn't belong here. I am amazed to see this band listed and not Coheed and Cambria which is alot closer to being Progressive Rock. I rate this album as I do all Radiohead albums. If you want guitar driven alternative droning by all means investigate Radiohead. I am also a fan of Electronica and still find no intrest in this. |
Another crappy "review". NO mentioning of the album, just dismissing the band on the "genre not belonging" premise!

As for Minkovich,well he has previous:
RUSH — Vapor Trails
Review by EMinkovitch (Eliott Minkovitch)
What in the world has happened to these guys? Is this the same band that gave us Moving Pictures and Hemispheres?!! What an awful bunch of noise. They have completely lost touch of what they are by trying to sound like the teenage grunge bands on MTV. I guess that's their way to handle their mid-life crisis. Oh well, we'll have to wait until after they pass that, maybe then they will come out with something meaningful musically and lyrically.

PRESTO BALLET — Peace Among The Ruins
Review by

Like other reviewers, I regard this as an excellent album. I'm old enough to remember the

This CD has it all - power, melody, musicianship - read the other review before mine -
they're right !!
One of my favourite CD's in many years

TRAFFIC — On The Road
Review by
AndreaSalvador
Sure one of the best live of '70's! The Black Psychedelic Folk (!) of Traffic it is expressed
here in the better way. In fact this LP introduces us as far as the times pack-saddles an
arrangiament little soul music in order to invent a new musical genre! The LP slides without
jolt, entering in the mind and the heart of the listener. Sure one of maximums live LP of the
Progressive.

TRAFFIC — On The Road
Review by
MANDRAKEROOT
(Andrea Salvador)
TRAFFIC ON THE ROAD
I joke with the title because I cannot do other. That disc... Tedious and (almost)
nothing more. I say it clear: this disc is not a big live album, to difference of a lot other
gone out in that I make sentences.
In fact the medley "Glad/ Freedom Rider" is too long (same lack of "Low Spark Of The
High-Heeled Boys") until me bother every time that the listening. A little better
one "Tragic Magic" and "(Sometimes I feel So) Uninspired". The greater lack that I found
is what this disc stinks too of Soul Music. The what also it could please. Nevertheless it
gives back too heavy the result. It results, so, a disc heavy, comprehensible black and
little too much. Erred.
Erred for the result, because the idea it was good.
For always yours, Mandrakeroot.
