Intro

Hello!  Let's get to brass tacks.  This is the beginning of something I've wanted to do for a long time.  I am a music collector, and I own a lot of CDs.  I am very passionate about the music I listen to and, honestly, I always want to read as much as I can about it.  Basically, I want to put out there in-depth information on albums that might or might not be very fleshed out on other websites.  "Review" is not the perfect word, but it is the best one I can use to reflect what I want to do. I am going to be critiquing, but I also want to offer depth, analysis and description to the albums I will review on here.  My ultimate goal is to offer maybe a listener's perspective for someone who might wonder what an album sounds or feels like.  I really want to describe the listening experience with each album I review.  Of course, these are all my personal opinions.  However, I will not cruelly criticize or bring down any musical work I review on here.  Neither, will I meaninglessly praise anything.  I am going to do my best to be as factual and analytical as possible, and give credit to what I think the artist accomplished in their work.  If I do get overzealous with praise, I will try to clarify it as my opinion.  I am going to be reviewing CDs I actually own, so I do not think there will be too much in the negative spectrum, but that will be clarified as opinion as that arises, as well.  I am not here to offend anyone or put down their musical tastes.  I just want to offer information and opinion for those who wish to read it.  Ok - Off soapbox.  I also intend on this being fun!  I hope anyone who finds their way here enjoys what they see!
