The new album "Motown Remixed" gets eviscerated on allmusic, including some
amusing lines, like "This is, without question, the most ill-conceived and
poorly executed project in the history of the Motown label...and coming from
a label that released records by Rockwell, that speaks volumes." And "It's a
bit like having your child go off to an Ivy League school to learn how to
flip burgers. Vapid khaki wearing soccer moms in mini vans may find this
stuff appealing and record executives might find this stuff trendsetting,
kitschy and groundbreaking, but for music fans both diehard and casual it's
an insult to a legacy."
Yeesh.

np: "I Hate These Songs" - Dale Watson (okay, not really, but as long as I
was on allmusic. I'm actually listening to the Bloc Party album a lot)
