We've discussed in the past that Gordon and Rolling Stone (or one of it's writers) had a falling out.

I bring this up because I checked out the new edition of the "Rolling Stone Rewcord Guide". A "HUGE" book that rates artists' LP's (CD's). In the book I notice they skip a few artists and Gordon is one of them!

Not one of his albums gets mentioned in the book and I can'r see why! They are all in (CD) print at this time and are certainly worthy. Could this be because of past "ill wills"?

It amazes me they review that horrible singer Burt Bacharach's LP's but not Gord's?
NSync but not Gord?
Britany Spears but not Gord???!!!! Aaaaaugh!

It just ain't fair!!

Why are you amazed? Dont you know how the magazine music industry works yet?
