Lethe

exactly... personally, I didn't remember how long it took to play like that. A lot of water has gone under the bridges unfortunately, and my memory is faltering :D

I mean... the fuzzy walls ;D

Bartle, your attitude and the constant calmness with which you comment always bring you honor, and it is clear that, let's not hide from it, you are currently one of the best reviewers on the site, very different from the usual ones who write detailed reviews praised by everyone, from those who get easily deceived by impeccable syntax and pseudo-poetic expressions, but also very different from the pathetic characters who think they are funny with provocative reviews like a rebellious, acne-ridden teenager angry at the world who never grew up. Look at this review of yours... I read it in 30 seconds! What better way to absorb 1001 pieces of information without slogging through boring intellectual bricks filled with economic-socio-political analyses and blablabla with cultured quotes and other nonsense? My critique, if we want to call it that, is more about the excessive use of those blessed metaphors that you all talk about so much these days. Personally, I appreciate linear, essential writings that, however, with few images and a few phrases inserted here and there, surprise you (either amusing you or making you think)... I haven't read the one about Blitzkrieg, but it seems that your others had this quality. However, this time, objectively, it seemed to me that you overdid it :) Anyway, there are plenty of other people (everyone) who liked it very much, so don't pay attention to that little insect voice. Bye!

just that NOT gaudy and baroque! The rest for me is just too much of a craft.

I'm sorry, I don't have favorite guitarists/keyboardists/drummers/ba ssists/oboists, but I still say that Rudess is a jerk. I only have one singer that I consider "favorite," and that is Kurt Cobain, the best voice ever in rock since the dawn of time. Of course, personal opinions!

Yes, great review, imagination, sensitivity, and everything you want... but some images and terminology used really seem a bit too exaggerated to me. I skimmed through your latest ones, and the style you are adopting (for goodness' sake, really interesting and original) is risking making them all look alike.

Did I say 5 years? Maybe I'm exaggerating...

By the way, I’ve never understood where all his technique comes from... just five years of proper piano study and you too will be able to do the nonsense he does. TERRIBLE!!!

Rudess is really a terrible keyboardist!
