Steve Sutherland - Scott Walker - Melody Maker - January 18 1992
A contrarian viewpoint on Scott Walker - claiming that the stuff with the Walker Brothers was the greatest, the solo work just pretentious, morose guff - that I don't agree with in the least, but am nonetheless impressed that someone would argue it with such conviction.

Chris Roberts - Jimi Hendrix live albums - February 29 1992 - Melody Maker
I enjoyed this contrarian underwhelmed review from Chris at the time, even though I'm a Jimi-worshipper (although that said, it's hard to imagine any circumstances in which I would put on a Hendrix live album - actually prefer him as a studio magician, painting pictures with sound).

CHRIS ROBERTS,
JIMI HENDRIX,
