I'm also ONLY posting them in the album review section. Because people are here to read album reviews. It's not spam, it's a full review, written by me, because people want to hear opinions on albums before they buy them. Wherever else I happen to post it is irrelevant.

And I am telling you it IS spam if you are just copying & pasting something from another source repeatedly.

Well, feel free to shut down my account if I don't have the freedom to post my own intellectual property where I please. For all you know, I wrote the reviews for this site and copied them to my blog. If I was posting someone else's work, I'd see your point. But I'm not. If I was posting a bunch of bull trying to increase my posts, I'd see your point. But I'm not. I'm posting legitimate, useable information that I've put hours of time into. If that's not acceptable, then delete me.

If we allow you to do it we have to allow everybody else to do it.

Then we get loads of bloggers coming here filling this part of the forum with reviews, advertising their own blogs while not contributing anything else to the forum, meanwhile all the members who do post reviews written especially for this forum see them buried in an avalanche of spam by people who they've never seen post in any other part of the forum.

That's why the rule is in place, and that's why I'm asking you not to do it.

Gotta disagree a bit with the review. I own this recording and I love it. I think it's Ray's best effort to date. The songs are sumptious and rich. The gravely vocals are filled with emotion. The recording has a wonderfully raw unprocessed sound to it. Very natural sounding acoustics that brings Ray right into your living room. I love the entire CD, but my favorites are "This love is over" and "The Devils' in the jukebox". This music really shines on a quality stereo where you can hear the high quality yet minimalist production style. 5 strong stars IMO...

ok Good review. Ray's stuff always has a bluesy tone to it so alot of the songs may come across as dark content-wise but I guess thats the blues!ha. Will definately check the album out though- one of my favourites of his was 'shelter'. Wonderfully simple song!
