Hey man don't be so harsh. The only reason I said that is that if people don't like them I'll stop putting them here cos I don't want to bother nobody. I don't need to get over myself because I don't hold myself in any high regard, and I know that no one asked me to put these here but since I spent some time doing these I just wanted to have some outsider's opinion on them.

I wouldn't agree with that.

Wouldn't agree with that.

Because we have different opinions about those songs.

Exactly when did I demand anything from anyone?

Please keep posting these reviews, it's refreshing to see other people's detailed views, even if I may not necessarily agree with them.

Blaze of Glory is the only hole in my Jon collection (with or without the band).

I agree with some of the review like Blaze and Santa Fe although this should get 5 stars in my opinion apart from crap Jon solo. I must pull you up though on Justice In The Barrel which is one of my favourites. It's a great song with cool lyrics and great guitar work from Jeff Beck. How you can call it filler and rate it below the dirge that is Dyin Aint Much Of A Livin is beyond me. That really is filler and along with You Really got me is the worst song on the album by far.

Peoples reviews are always good for a debate and are obviously subjective. Yours don't always agree with mine but they are thorough although I always thought it was Young Guns II star Lou Diamond Phillips who sang the intro to Justice rather than "Some Native American singer" I haven't checked though so I could be wrong. I do agree with the person who told you that no one asked you to do these reviews though, you can't come on demanding we all respond, people will do it if they're interested.

Thanks for the review although I think you were a bit harsh with the 12/20. I have said it before but I have to disagree with you petermc - Destination Anywhere is an excellent cd. Its an album that takes a few listens to get into but seriously I think it's a classic (yes, that's how much I like it!!).

Well obviously you don't agree with those things, you've already reviewed the album and given your opinions. I was just pointing out that I disagreed with your review in certain aspects.

As for demanding a response, your comment along the lines of "I assume I'm not just posting these for myself here!" suggested that you were pissed that people didn't really show much interest in your NJ review and that you expected people to respond. Like the man said no one's forcing you to review the albums. After saying that I always find peoples views on songs/albums interesting so I'm not having a go at you for doing it, some people obviously enjoy the reviews.

There was no exclamation mark, I wasn't suggesting anything, I wasn't pissed and I clearly didn't say that I was expecting people to respond. You were obviously reading something heavily between the lines.
