Reading Robert Christgau's "Consumer Guide" can be quite entertaining but it also can be quite annoying. Like for instance, I wanna know what the hell he was smoking when he suggests Laura Nyro was a fool in one of his Kate Bush album reviews. Meanwhile, on his Laura Nyro albums page, he is FOOLISH enough to start(!) at her more subdued Christmas & The Beads of Sweat album, while not even bothering to review her masterpieces- Eli & The 13th Confession & New York Tendaberry.
If he had bothered to LISTEN to those albums, he would know she's NO fool!
How is he the "dean of American rock critics" if he skips those 2 important albums? http://www.lauranyro.com
And you know what, he doesn't even like Flora Purim, so HE might be the one who's a fool....
