This review is wonderful for a history of PFM, but says nothing about the actual album in question, other than in passing.

About the PFM review, the Moderation will manage a way to preserve it...

PORCUPINE TREE — Up The Downstair
Review by adam__77

5 stars One of the greatest progresive album of the 90's! The mester-track - Up The Downster is hipnotising and breath taking. The final of the album is somthing unforgettible... Wonderfull music from start to the end.

PORCUPINE TREE — Spiral Circus Live (lp)
Review by adam__77

5 stars Superb live performence of early material! Excelent sound quality and perfect song selection - the only one curtate version of Voyage 34 - guitar solo only. This is were the live performence of Porcupine Tree start. This one is not appreciated as it should be.

LED ZEPPELIN — In Through The Out Door
Review by eanmund44

3 stars After many albums of following the same basic formula, the Zeppelin folks mustered up enough guts to try something different. Instead of the usual guitar-bash approach, the group saw the wisdom that can come from adding more keyboards to the mix (something Black Sabbath also did to spice up their music in the Sabbath B Sabboth through Never Say Die period).

While some narrow-minded listeners whined, complained, and cried like childish babies, the rest of us applauded the expansion of the Zepp sound. Maybe some people just don't like keyboards, but for many of us true prog-heads, it was a welcome relief and change of pace.

In the Evening does have the traditional Zepp sound, but with some extra keyboards. All of My Love is admittedly popish, but still tastefully done. But it takes some maturity to appreciate this one, something most younger listeners probably won't be able to handle. I'm Gonna Crawl is a beautiful quieter song with lots of mood and atmosphere, going in a territory LZ had never quite done before (this is a good thing, giving more variety to their music).

I'll admit that Hot Dog is a dumb song and one they could have replaced with something better (maybe a heavy guitar jam song or something for better balance).

Carouselambra is kind of cool, and should appeal to proggers.

In summary, not the best Zepp album, but one that definately has a place among the rest, and should be appreciated on its one terms (not for narrow and simplistic minds).

I appreciate good reviews as much as the next person but when someone states that anyone who disagrees with them is childish and narrow-minded it ceases to be an intelligent review and becomes a self-inflated, know-it-all rant.

The closing tag for 'bold font' seems to be missing on this one, causing everything below it to show up in boldface as well. Yet again... Wink
