That's ok: at least you listened to it. It would be a dull club indeed if we all liked every album selected. Hannon uses that kind of affectation a lot; I guess it's something you either like or don't like. You should still check out his previous two albums, Liberation and Promenade, which you might enjoy more. Also A Short Album About Love, though it does follow the same kind of pattern as Casanova...

If it's any consolation, I'm finding much more to like in your music journals.
Thanks. Glad you're enjoying them.

It annoys me that I lost the link to a specific one that the Batlord referred med to a while ago. It had reviews of AOR and other very 80's sounding rock/glam. I was going through it page by page, but now I can't find it again and as it turns out... you have like a million+ journals!
yeah, I used to carry a link to all my journals in my sig, but then I stopped doing them completely so took the link out. The index also has not been updated in a while, but if you need it here it is

Very much agreed. It doesn't even matter if you put them in quotes, as far as I remember. Stupid system, however don't expect anyone who can do anything to listen.

It turns out it was this one:

There's more than AOR in there, but I just remembered some of the 80's cheese cover art. I had to go through the journal index, manually searching on Trollheart's name until something rang a bell.
Ah yes: one of my favourites. You should have just PM'd me. If you're looking for something in future that I wrote and you can't find it, let me know.
