Christgau

Robert Christgau says this may be it. After 41 years his monthly (sometimes bi-monthly) Consumer Guide is finished. He doesn't say it's 100%, and he might be more pissed off at MSN for not wanting to continue his column, but it does sound like he's worn out. I've disagreed more than agreed with a lot of his choices, but it was always a worthwhile read. The legendary critics just don't review much anymore. Dave Marsh, Greil Marcus and now Christgau. Lost voices of a time when music critic's did matter.
