A lot of times the comments folks leave here blow me away. Many have been the equal of any professional music writing I’ve encountered elsewhere, while others relate from a casual or personal level that you can’t find in corporate mags or journals. And as we’ve said before, your comments are why this site exists.

For a “uReview” review we’ll take a look at some classic and contended albums and leave it up to commenters. We’re starting out easy with Big Pink. So, what do you think?
