Favourite Prog Reviewer?

I don't know who my favorite reviewer is, but there's this one review that is the greatest review ever in all dimensions. It's a review of The Flower King's Unfold the Future by a guy called Man Overboard. Most epic story leading into a review ever, I can so picture being in that situation. Read it, all of you.

A shame he's in a crisis of time and a load of work. He'd write more.

Thanks for the kudos!. This time I picked a completely different album from the one I reviewed yesterday, just to show that I am not Eclectic in name only!

Philip Desmond Halloway is my fav. He kicks arse.

*goddamn these pop-up ads when I am trying to listen to groups for this damn site on my computer... can't do that and keep the volume down*

rant over...


she has been raving about it to me.. has made me interested to hear it... and I am definitely not a fan of the group.  I'm in her boat and do find it interesting when groups do covers/interpetations like that.  She does have a good number of albums, as she mentions in her review, and they are really interesting to listen to... but for the insipid DT album with those cover songs on it... was enough to send me running to grab a Caravan album

Folly was one of the greats, but he's been gone for several months now.  He says he's coming back soon, though.  

Mine would be Chamberry. So many times I come to an album page and there is only 1 rating and low and behold it is Chamberry. If not for Chamberry so many albums would have no reviews at all.

Thank you

woa, nice topic, made it passed these eyes somehow.

The reviewers I follow almost religously - I read pretty much everything they write on here:

Finnforest, Erik, Salmacis, Dave Connoly (when he used to review), Ivan Melgar Morey, Peter Rideout, Andrea Parentin, ClemofNazareth

I tend to enjoy the reviews of ZowieZiggy, Gatog and The T the most (of the ones who review a lot) and have musical tastes similar to mine for the most part. Ricochet has the best usage of the English language here, though I need a bit of concentration in order to comprehend his reviews well. His musical tastes are similar as well from the albums I know.

The reviews from all collaborators are very informative and the only subpar ones tend to be mostly on the early reviews, which may be due to the fact that the reviewers were not titled 'prog reviewer' at that time. Hey, some of my early reviews are embarrasing
