Not his greatest fan, myself. I think he's a bit quick to jump to conclusions, lacking much objectivity and his subjective opinions don't tend to correlate to my own.

I've enjoyed GS's reviews for a while. A lot of his stuff annoys me but I suppose that's his job. It's ertainly sent me to the CD racks to pull out stuff to listen to a few times.
 
Mark Prindle's hilarious site is more concerned with punk/noise/weirdness but he's good on Yes and the Moody Blues and more often than not has me laughing out loud as he heads wildly off-topic.
 
A real labour of love for these guys - good luck to 'em.

As you may or may not know, George Starostin is the author of the Only Solitare website, which can be reached here:

 
 
What do you guys think of him? More specifically, what do you think of his reviews of prog bands? If you have never read him before, just check out the page and read about any prog band that has a rating and tell me what you think. I personally think he's the best album reviewer I've ever read, though a bit biased at times...then again, who isn't? And his objective insights definately overshadow any bias.
