At my college radio station, we used to put comment cards on the records,
where the reviewer would give some info and opinion and leave room for
others to opine, and a sticker on which people could write when they played
the approved tracks.
In the late '80s, I was searching the used bins at Wax Trax in Chicago, and
was confronted with my review of Nena's second U.S. album (my first line --
"No Luftballoons here this time.") I found a couple others subsequently --
the thing is, they were all albums that I gave negative reviews to that were
stuck in low rotation (hence, they were probably yanked from the library to
give room to better records). Not a great sales tool...
