Introductory post

This blog will be dedicated to understanding and analyzing Robert Christgau's music reviews. I am starting this blog because it is often surprisingly difficult to understand what Christgau means in his reviews, so for those who don't "get" his reviews he simply seems like an out-of-touch egotistical snob. I have been reading his reviews regularly for >7 years so I think I know a thing or two about what a given one means.
