These ratings are probably from the same person for the same album...

Rapid Eye Movement hasn't been released yet and the reviewer doesn't state where he got his copy:

DEEP PURPLE — Purplexed
Review by Salviaal

1%20stars Total waste of money here. I saw this in a store and was thinking what's the point of buying a worst-of album, and furthermore the worst songs are selected from some of their worst albums (with the exception of Anya, which was the best song on its album). The cover art is perplexing, as usually they just dump a band picture on the cover, maybe they found this picture on a media cd?

DEEP PURPLE — The Deep Purple Collection
Review by Salviaal

— First review of this album —

1%20stars Another one??? I haven't actually bought this one, but from on the tracklisting I can deduct that this is another compilation of their two 80s albums, with additional live tracks from that era. Now, it's silly enough to make a compilation spanning merely two studio albums (plus some very weak live renditions of classics), but the worst thing is that there have been at least two others of its kind: "Knocking at your Backdoor: The Best of Deep Purple" and "Smoke on the Water" - both having the same tracklisting. It's is a pitiful attempt to cash in with these, quite frankly, subpar songs. If you are looking to get to know Deep Purple, avoid this one like a plague!

    3%20stars Myself being a big genesis fan, i had read the reviews on this site many times before and this album had caught my eye time and again. After i purchased the album from my local record store i took it home and i was instantly blown away by the title track 'Close to the edge' this track is excellent, well worthy of the purchase price alone; however, when i listened to the next tracks they didnt live up to my expectations, now dont get me wrong they are good tracks, i just prefer my music to be more synthesisor based, all in all a good album, i would recommend anyone to check it out just for track number one, sorry if i have offended anyone.

    Well spotted! These reviews are a couple of years old, so how come admin havn't spotted them before? These reviews also say nothing and were obviously posted to manipulate the prog archives chart.
     
    I hope Easy Livin' does the right thing and deletes them!

    I don't think a math review is exemplary for prog reviewing.

    The member usually rates and doesn't review, he however has this and Rajaz by Camel, reviewed as seen.
