To those of us trapped in the Midwest without access to <I>The Village Voice</I>, it also was the place to get Robert Christgau's Consumer Guide reviews on a monthly basis. I still remember the outrage his re-examination of a series of sacred sixties platters (including the first <I>Doors</I> release) spurred among the <I>Creem</I> readership . . . A fun review. 682656@blogcritics.org Tue, 25 Dec 2007 11:35:47 EST
