99% of bands are not as good as Hawkwind. If you want to hear their good material, then often you have to turn to the opinions of others. Otherwise you run the risk of missing out because you write a band off after stumbling upon a bad album or two.

I don't let other people make up my mind for me about music. I form my own impressions. Always have done, always will do.

You have shares in RYM or something? You're always mentioning them to me.
And it leads you constantly to mediocrity.
