Jim really nails it in a short space of writing

Love the way he writes

Haha I thought that was gonna be a cracker of a review but it left me stunned cold instead.

Humming refrigeraters and killer bees are Tangerine Dream's specialty, dont knock it! 

I'm glad I'm not the only one who've noticed him

EDIT: I was referring to the Holger Czukay album...

"Whilst that album [Canaxis] - which was also pieced together from various scraps of samples and radio recordings - proved a somewhat difficult listen, 'Movies' is anything but. Humorous, catchy and utterly fascinating, this the kind of album that showcases the right kind of curious experimentation, with Czukay leading the listener through a merry dance of sounds, textures and styles without ever forgetting the key rock music ingredients. "

This one shows that you don't necessarily have to write bible length reviews to illustrate the sound and feel of an album: http://www.progarchives.com/Review.asp?id=32436

Man, I love this one - and it's actually a fine and very apt description of said album methinks 

I just wanted to agree with Bamsen's words to Michael about that West Space and Love review. And that Oresund Space Collectiv review too. I need to get these one day. I have some earlier Oresund Space Collectiv which i really enjoy.

Thanks man. Feels good to know that others out there have been through something similar. And don't worry - I'll never forget the trenches Real life never seems to reflect that of the fictional intellectually charged academic one. If I were to follow the books on how best to work with children, I'd turn out 'false' and disingenuous, and as you probably know from being a father, children see right through that. In that way, they feel infinitely more wise than us old folks.

Jazzmaster? Isn't that the one that got a revival back in the early 90s with grunge and the Madchester scene?

Yep.  Careful not to build too many bridges, because you might have to burn some later.

Originally posted by Guldbamsen What make is that new guitar of yours? One of my older friends just bought my absolute favourite axe of all time, which is the Gibson Firebird mark lll - y'know the one Manzanera played with Roxy back in the day. A beautiful thing.

The guitar is a Fender Squier J. Mascis Jazzmaster, and the amp is a Fender Blues Deluxe, with the best clean tube sound I've ever played through.

Yeah well, I miss you too big fella

I guess it's going allright, although I feel like I should be more 'into' it - more challenged, but then again I am studying something that I've used 12 years of work on, so a lot of the basics thrown at us currently, is just meaningless or superfluous banter to these ears. Feels like having someone tell you, that water is wet... Wow, is that right? I had no idea

That's the thing most men hope for, when walking home from a party. Maybe the exact opposite of women methinks. Again, the Danish connection brings to you the ultimate distinction between the sexes - perhaps the most dividing(apart from childbirth that is...)

Nice to be around this place again - as always really. Just trying to catch up on people and music. So in line with that, hey Steve!! Hope you're tearing it up with the ol band

Hey ho mister John Brilliant 5 star review, and of one I have yet to acquire. Looking forward to that now....

On another note, and not to constantly bring up the ol Kanguru, but I really digged that West Space and Love review you did Michael. Maybe it's to do with the kind of music on display that I adore, but something tells me it goes beyond that. Just very well written my friend(even if you live most of your life with the wrong side up.... (I'll tell you - you'd absolutely love living here in Denmark, where we don't have to use glue under our feet))

On another note altogether: SAGIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!! Oh yeah! You've started reviewing again or what? Been a long time coming, but ultimately worthwhile. I have missed them. Eclat though sounds like something out of a bakery....

 

Thanks David !  I have another coming up that will be hard not to drop five stars on.

I think out of print albums should be against the law.  I guess as Steve showed us with that YETI recording going for 100 dollars that some are thankful for rare albums because they can make some money. Supply and demand.

I enjoyed that one as well, maybe not so much due to it's rarity, which makes me go "damn!", if I'm honest...

Loved your Landberk review too, John. As a matter of fact, I really think the front page of late has been overflowing in well written and thoughtful reviews. True marmalade days.

I also liked a review on the home page today here

tremendous writing from Neo-Romantic
