Warren Zevon bashing
Get a load of this:

Let?s?for the 1st and only time in this enormity of reviews?weigh the grossly poisonous reaction from rabidly hyperventilating, suspicious Zevon fans. 230 reviews with ratings all oppressively stressed to the maximum venom of perfect five stars?!?!?!?! This inarguably reveals the easily misled suggestibility of the excess of 230 varying reviewers, which is so shameful, it?s sad. I despise to spoil the party of obliviousness that?s occurring here with the untamed, postmortem and late fan ?appreciation? of Zevon, but to ANY impartial observer, one who hasn?t been seized control of by the feral hypocrisy of the media preying on a relatively MEDIOCRE ?entertainer?s? death, all these 230 reviews are a SHAM.

When an ?entertainer? dies, even an old-timer nobody like Zevon, the press has a soulless frenzy in exaggerating him to be repugnantly more than what his status really was!!!! To the unconscientious media, the death of even barely recognizable figures is the equivalent of the most exploitable Godsend bounty arriving!!!! This is all part of the press? calculated stratagem to trick na?ve morons to part with their money, as the press embezzles incrementally more business from putting the gimmick of purportedly ?famous? persons deaths in their headlines, which they hopefully plan will draw some contemptibly impressionable triflers concerned with only celebrity-oriented lightness. I?ve contradicted myself; it?s an outrage that the media, in the first place, manhandled Zevon?s decease to embellishment, for he was obscurely unknown in the least, a session musician at a salacious best!!!!

More (MUCH more - it gets very freeperish)at:

I reported it because it's not a review of the music - it's a political spew.

2. What a bunch of gobbledygook.
It's on the thin edge of schizophrenic word-salading.

3. I hit the "report" link...
To report the review as inappropriate. After reading the review, it was obvious this freepy bastard knew nothing of Zevon except, perhaps, that he was politically left-leaning.

Everyone should go blow the whistle on this shit!

5. Thank you
For reporting it, too. I hope others will also report it as inappropriate. Besides, it's a massive mess that takes up the whole page and has nothing, absolutely NOTHING to do with the CD itself.

It appears that this dregg of humanity is so impressed with their incoherent ramblings that they are spaming music sites with it.

Doing a search for Zevon and suicide I ran across this piece of crap here:

http://www.cd-reviewers.com/reviews_frontpage_B0000AGWIK

and here:

http://www.radioparadise.com/modules.php?name=Amazon&asin=B0000AGWIK
http://www.1-digital-camera-store.com/product+The-Wind-B0000AGWIK.html

though some of those may be feeds from cd-reviewers

what a mess

7. Hard tos ay
except they didn't seem to like his politics. Seemed to prefer Kurt Cobain - big fucking deal, to each his own. I loved Zevon, saw him several times. Yeah, he had a few weak LPs, to my mind, but the last record was brilliant and that is what the review should have covered - not a review of his life, body of work, and character - which is what the author seems to have done though it was extremely difficult to read.
