Actually it was $2 for the double vinyl, so I bought it mostly to see how bad it was

It's ELP, what do you expect?  And Dagmar is German, hence her name.

Maybe... Does anyone else feel like they're watching LOTR when listening to the Concerto on side 1 of ELP's Works? This is... not... that great

Maybe her parents were Dagwood and Mary and they combined the 2.

James, finally watched the DVD.
Epic is an understatement.

Open your eyes, Dagmar! And why is her shirt too big?  Indeed. I told you it was one of the highlights of the box,

Try what I just did - when you put an album on to listen to, try to write a review for it. Makes the review a bit easier I think.
|
That's what I've done for every review I've written. I can only write in context of hearing it. Unless I know it by heart. Like most Rush albums.  Anyways I got to go.

It definitely does, though I very rarely use this method. However, unless I know the album VERY well, I generally have to listen to it very shortly before I start writing, or I'll forget everything  .

I'm thinking of restarting and getting mine all deleted. But then I would just end up not having any reviews

My problem is that I've reviewed so many that I don't know which I want to do the most out of the ones that are left that I've held off on for a reason

Yes, since I started reviewing again I have written the following:
Cozy Powell - Over the Top Ian Gillan Band - Clear Air Turbulence East of Eden - Mercator Projected Steely Dan - Countdown to Ecstasy Porcupine Tree - In Absentia
I have another in the pipeline, which hopefully I'll write later in the afternoon.

Raff is writing again!? I need to read those
I promised myself I'd write one today, but whether or not that happens is yet to be seen

Keep it short and sweet Ben. I don't want to read War and Peace when researching an album.

Well said  ! And Pat, your review was just that... Short, sweet, and to the point, covering ALL the necessary information  . Though an avid reader, I tend to be put off by monster reviews that analyse an album's minutest details. My own style is quite different.. I wrote three reviews in the past couple of days, and may well do another one today, but I'd never call myself prolific.

I can relate... Chris Squire is coming to fix my stopped up toilet when he gets out of the hospital....

But I'm serious.
