Whatever the case, speaking as a contributor to the Britannica blog, music writer, and once-upon-a-time contributor to City Paper, I'd ask that you not wish ruin on the entire enterprise simply because one writer has a tin ear. That'd be cause, I imagine, for shutting down most music magazines, too. And as for keeping up, well, we all have our Golden Age, the safe place in our minds that keeps our best musical memories locked away. (Alexandria Roller Rink, 1971, Alice Cooper...)
