That's their old "Mr Buechners" review. It had been replaced with a more positive review, written by a DA fan, quite a while ago. I wonder why they switched it back? __________________ "Blessed is he who expecteth nothing, for he shall enjoy everything" -St. Francis of Assisi "A strange fanaticism fills our time: the fanatical hatred of morality, especially of Christian morality." - GK Chesterton 08-15-2002 00:19 Mark Moderator Registration Date: 03-18-2002 Posts: 9,525 Location: Grand Encephalon - Words have their place but live what you say God can have His way when you hit them with Love Thread Starter quote: Originally posted by audiori Hmm.. that's odd.

You're right there was another review listed previously that I believe gave MBD 4 stars(?). For years they had DFBB as 2 stars. I know because I have some of the books. They used to only print books, then there was a CD-Rom, and for the past few years there has been the website. As the number of artists have grown, they've started using more and more reviewers. In the past there was a limited number of reviewers. On mainstream albums they are often not too far off on reviews, but they have had many errors especially on their CCM or CCM related genres. For instance, they had Scaterd Few's album incorrectly listed as Skin Disease. I e-mailed them about that error months ago and I think they finally corrected it. __________________ But never, never pin your whole faith on any human being: not if he is the best and wisest in the whole world. - C.S.

Now it only has 3 stars and the reviewer and review are different than when it was listed as a 5 star. You'd think they'd at least get someone with some knowledge doing these reviews. I'm scared to look at how they rated C*rm*n for fear that all his albums are 5 stars. __________________ But never, never pin your whole faith on any human being: not if he is the best and wisest in the whole world. - C.S.

Here's a good example of how stupid this site is: Swirling Eddies- Sacred Cows I don't think the reviewer really got the point. 08-17-2002 15:56 Mark Moderator Registration Date: 03-18-2002 Posts: 9,525 Location: Grand Encephalon - Words have their place but live what you say God can have His way when you hit them with Love Thread Starter I see what you mean. __________________ But never, never pin your whole faith on any human being: not if he is the best and wisest in the whole world. - C.S.
