ET, I like that you stick to your guns. It would have been very easy to have bowed to pressure and said "Oh you guys all like it (though US was less than lavish in his praise) so I will too", but you've given it another chance and still don't like it, and say so. That's good. I mean, it's not good that you dont like it cos I think it's a fecking excellent album, but it's good that you hold to your own view.

I feel like you in the Captain Beyond review. Everyone loved that, I was not in the least impressed. Like you, I stuck to my opinion. It's mine, which doesn't mean it's right or wrong, but it does mean they're my own thoughts and not orchestrated or affected by those of anyone else.

Big Ears, great review. I particularly like that you "get" "Great disaster": it's not one of my favourite tracks but I do like it, and yes it sticks in your head. I have St. Louis if you want a copy; let me know.

Who's up next then guys?
