Maybe I was wrong about the comment you were referring to. It happens, and I have no problem apologizing. But who were you referring to in this other comment? Come on, "Begbye" Charlie Nokia, stop messing with people and don’t give this poor guy a hard time for expressing his eightieth opinion in review form on a Pink Floyd album. An opinion with which I don’t totally disagree, and if you really knew Ligeti you might understand that the second part of Ummagumma is far below his experiments. Much better were the two previous experimental albums. Much, much better. Here they wanted to do things that were outside their scope. In any case, this album remains a 5. Clear-cut.

I respond to cptgaio, I didn't take it personally, I only get angry if there are offensive personal attacks in the comments. (C.H.A.R.L.I.E Nokia did that) As for the review, the comments are there for a reason; you can say whatever you want, the person who wrote it has to be able to swallow a few toads too. Even before writing the review, I knew I would receive a lot of criticism. There are albums or artists that have reached untouchable status, just try to make even the slightest critique of Jim Morrison, (Doors) and you'll see what happens; they’ll probably come looking for you at home. Just write something negative about a name and someone will get pissed off.

About Tori Amos, I have Little... I've only listened to it once because lately I've bought so many records. The impression was good, but to form a precise opinion, the CD needs at least a couple more listens. Regarding your comment on Ummagumma, I say that everything has already been written about this album. I've also wanted to express my thoughts; I don't think I'm downplaying it. The live part is worth 4 stars, while the studio part is too ambitious for artists like Mason, Gilmore, and Wright, so it's worth two stars. My thesis is that artists of a different caliber have done avant-garde better than the ones I mentioned, which is why I consider Ummagumma overrated. Of course, this is just my opinion.

Surely everything has already been written about Ummagumma. I too wanted to share my thoughts; I don’t think I'm underestimating it. The live part is worth 4 stars, while the studio part is too ambitious for artists like Mason, Gilmore, and Wright, worth two stars. My thesis is that artists of a different caliber have done avant-garde better than the artists I mentioned, which is why I consider Ummagumma overrated. Of course, this is just my opinion.

I have already responded to a similar observation. For "Careful With That Axe Eugene," the adjective was "passionate," and when I copied it, I wrote "whispered," which was meant for "Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun," to which I later preferred "chanting." It's not an adjective used negatively. As for the review, I am always too rushed, and I have it published without rereading it at least a couple of times, as would be proper.

I ordered the album a while ago; hopefully, it meets expectations. PS Have they explained to you what Webernian serialism is?

Poor Stravinsky, when someone is unable to talk about avant-gardes, they always quote him out of context, just to seem more cultured. Poor thing. Leave him alone. I accepted the criticism, but I don’t like that poor thing, because I’m doing very well. I know Stravinsky and I mention him alongside other artists to highlight the difference between their experimentation and, for example, that of Nick Mason. As for this review, I couldn’t even manage to read it all, it was so boring.

I don't understand why you worry about whether Zucchero is well-regarded on the site; just write what you think without caring about others.

It’s you, dear Charlie Nokia, who started commenting with insults, and you’re persisting; this is what those who have nothing to say do. Honestly, I’m sorry, I don’t understand all this bitterness, I haven’t done anything to you. Even before publishing the review, I knew that many criticisms would come in, others have done it too, but when there was no offense, I took it and brought it home. As for Stravinsky, I don’t use him just to sound impressive, but to strengthen my assertions regarding Ummagumma.
