@Ole, I'm confused. Should I take your comment as criticism or as a compliment?

@Ole, the Red Album is the second studio album by Grand Funk. It was released in 1969, just a few months after "On Time." Its real title is "Grand Funk," but it's commonly referred to this way because of its cover. Of the albums from the first era, that one is the only one missing; maybe I'll write about it.

I thank Hell and Trell for the assist. Let me explain better; I read the review earlier and I liked it. In terms of structure and message, it was your best one, however, there is a limit, and I had already noticed it but didn’t know how to express it (and this brings us back to the assist): some sentences don’t seem so comprehensible, maybe you wanted to say beautiful things but expressed them poorly. What could have caused such a thing? We both know the answer: the emotion didn’t just trick you, but played a dirty trick on you.

Absolutely magnificent, without a doubt. One of the most beautiful and spontaneous things I have ever read, and they include it in literary cases? It's truly infuriating. What a shame, unfortunately, the freedom (expressed here) comes at a very high price. I greet you with a small quote: "You know how fortunate it is to be free. To be capable of freedoms that seem infinite." Indeed, they seem infinite.

The review isn't bad; there could have been a bit more said. This is the last album with Terry Knight, who had produced all of Grand Funk's works until now, and it will be a crucial transition, considering that "We're an American Band" will follow, an album that's pivotal for the history of Grand Funk, both as a band and for their musical journey. There's also a little something missing in the description of the tracks. "E Pluribus Funk" is simply splendid, one of their best albums, and I’m convinced of that. Nonetheless, a round of applause for the rediscovery.

I believe that Michoos has stated a sound and undeniable truth. The reception is enticing, I don’t know the album though.

With all due respect, I didn't like this review, not because of the rating of the album—everyone is entitled to their opinion and I wouldn't judge because I don't know the band. I just didn't like the way you structured the review.

The way it is written is very beautiful, the content is devastating for its truthfulness. These are the judgments on the book. The review, in my opinion, is well done; it doesn't linger too long on the book and perhaps that's better. It expresses a strong base opinion that I share, and quite a bit. I feel compelled to comment on the De-Recensore, who is "known," let's say, for the nonsense he writes (starting from the personal profile that I don't invite you to look at), but he has proven his seriousness and value as a de-Recensore. In this situation, he has shown us how we can be serious as long as we want, but the substance and intelligence of a person is demonstrated in moments like these and by the positions they take.

Thank you for responding. I’m not talking about music (in this case) because I really like the early Pino, a slip of the tongue on my part, and I can’t speak badly about the current one, aware of the fact that it would deserve it.

This doesn't deserve to be among the DeCasi; I would want it back on the Home Page in hindsight.
