You can't erase or rewrite history, especially when it comes to record
reviews. Some of Rolling Stone's greatest (or should that be worst) are
currently being collated.
Sample gems include:
Hendrix: Are you experienced ~ "The poor quality of the songs, and the inanity of the lyrics, too often get in the way."
Byrds: Sweethearts of the rodeo ~ "It's really very uninvolved and not a difficult record to listen to."
Love: Forever changes ~ "It's weakest point is in the material. Some songs meander and lack real melodic substance."
Of course all 3 of those records went on to make Rolling Stone's 500
greatest records ever made list. Like I said, you can't rewrite history.
