TFA blurb review
Any thoughts or edits? (I'm posting this one early because I'll be tied up with another project for almost a month starting on the 13th. I don't know when this will be promoted at FAC.) - Dank (push to talk) 23:43, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

Christgau's Record Guide: Rock Albums of the Seventies is a music reference book by American music journalist and essayist Robert Christgau. It was first published in October 1981 by Ticknor & Fields. Covering a variety of genres with a focus on rock music, the book compiles approximately 3,000 capsule album reviews, most of which were originally written for his "Consumer Guide" column in The Village Voice throughout the 1970s. Many of the older reviews were rewritten for the guide to reflect his changed perspective and matured stylistic approach. The guide was critically well received, with praise given for its extensive discography, Christgau's judgment, and colorful writing. Reviewers noted his opinionated tastes, analytical commentary, pithy language, and critical quips. A staple of rock-era reference works, it became a source for popular music studies and a guide for fellow critics, record collectors, and music shops.
