Brilliant!

In fact, you can pick practically any review by Chicapah (Rollie Anderson) and will be entertained and warmed by a funny, insightful, sincere and humble master of the written word. Thumbs Up

Hey Iain,

I totally agree...

Rollie is the best writer on this site (and on JMA)

Thanks to Mr Rivertree for his review of the first 3rd Ear Experience album ("Peacock Black" featuring Tribe After Tribe and King's X members, details here : http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=97348)

it describes perfectly the music and it inspires me a lot to make this project alive (i try to reissue it on vinyl)

Nice review Jim of Triumph's US festival DVD.

I remember when that was being advertized back in the day and would have loved to have gone.

I also appreciated Sagi's reviews of those two Vanay albums as I was interested in them.

Thanks my friend, there are a lot of better albums to get first but you seem to know them all already Wink

Don't get me wrong they are good albums, and you can listen to her "Best Of..." album on bandcamp, about half of it comes from both albums. Here's the link for it...

Hello my progger friends. Hope all is well. ;)

Well, I really enjoyed LAZELAND's review for Mike Oldfield's latest experiment 'Man on The Rocks.'
It's a great review because 'the master of relaxation' talks about how the album is gonna sound straight up!
It's Prog, but not traditional Prog in the full sense of the word...no long songs.

Anyway. Charismatic and engaging as usual. Thanks Laze! You gave me a clear idea of what I would expect If I bought this album. Certainly sounds like it would be radio-friendly and probably not for me. Lol.

Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣

Why, thank you for this. Very kind Hug

Sometimes, it is as important to know which album you will not like, as those you will!

I did a double take when I saw Jim's review of Water's first solo album because I didn't know about it(probably just forgot) but despite the overall poor rating for this one there are several collaborators including Jim who gave this 4 stars.

It's great John but it doesn't rock. Be in the mood for a mellower psych before you sample it. Smoke
