Thanks, I hope to write more reviews soon but I'm a little pressed for time now.  Maybe I will review an Aube album (unfortunately, I would have to listen to the album a few times first LOL).

Don't get discouraged with your reviews, I just read your most recent one (the Perhaps review) and it was excellent.  I would be interested to see what you have to say about a Rush album.

How can I not like a review with this line?

I give your review of his review of his reviews a tawdry **/***** - you weren't descriptive in the slightest and your flow lacked a certain viscous element.

I award my review of your review of his review of his reviews an edifying ****/***** for clarity, deftness and sheer unmitigated zeal.

I think your reviews are excellent, Austin.  Very descriptive and eloquent while also being concise.

Been meaning to pop in here to highlight some reviewers for a while... I have to say that Rob (Epignosis) is one of my favorite reviewers; his reviews are easy to read and very descriptive of the sound of the album, so much so that I can read one of his negative reviews and decide from my reading that I think I would like the album!

Scott's (ACR'S) reviews are excellent as well, they are very well-written and insightful and appeal to my love of many words.

The time here is approaching 5 in the morning, but before I turn in, I would like to revive a wonderful thread and highlight two specific reviewers who recently have written some awesome stuff. Steve (HolyMoly) just did some brilliant Captain Beefheart ones, which really connected with me on a personal level. Many thanks Steve. You are rare vegetable my man.

Michael (Aussie-Byrd-Brother) continues to flourish the front-page with well written, imaginative and always highly interesting reviews. Big round of applause! I really think you should be prog reviewer.
That is all for me folks. I am hitting the sack with a dreamy Krautrock album in my ears. Where are you Alpha Centauri?!?!?!


Argghhhh nuts!!
The moment I logged off I suddenly remembered Jim's recent Zaum review, which I ate hook line and sinker. Yummy. Aaaaaand the always entertaining Darryl who just now posted one for FM. I have a similar taste in music as him, but I still think he writes brilliant reviews regardless of ones tastes.
That is the only downfall of this thread. You are afraid of leaving people out of the mix, because let's face it: we've got some fantastic writers here on PA.

Allright, now I am really going to sleep....

Being a newbie/groupie member, but have used the site for years to see reviews for groups or albums before I purchased them, I often found Gatot's reviews and ratings most helpful and insightful for my interests.
 
Thanks Gatot.

Thanks Sheavy, Finnforest, Guldbamsen, Dreadpirateroberts, and Atomic, I really appreciate your kind words and support! I greatly admire all you guys, and it's been a privilege being on this site with you all.

David - I owe you big time for the K.Schulze help!

Finnforest - I still owe you that second Jacula review - I've been slowly piecing it together recently!

Atomic - It was great catching up and saying hello at the Yes show we saw in Melbourne!

Catch all of you around on the Archives!
