this brings me to another point .
when we read a review,we do not know whether there has been any bad blood between the reviewer ,and the musician .
For example ,the editor of a well known magazine ,accused me of being on drugs,because I criticised a review[not a review of my own music] in this magazine .
I dont think in all honesty ,I would get a fair review if I sent him a copy of my cd to be reviewed,another reviewer has referred to me as a psychotic moron .,would I get a fair review for this person[I dont think so ]
musicans should not feel intimidated, or frightened to criticise a review,for fear of future reprisals,freedom of speech should be at everyones disposal,but most professional musicians prefer to keep their heads down,in case it produces bad feeling for the future .
Reviewers should be reviewed ,just as musicians are ,without any comeback .
