Illiteracy , lunacy , stupidity , oh and let's throw in jealousy for Fun . How many of these Trolls are willing to Create their OWN Channel ❓ and put them selves out there like that ❓ haters gonna hate Meanwhile , you Rock On 🤘😎🤘
Brilliant responses. Greatest hits included: "I think this person is probably about as popular as a bonus track on a Yoko Ono album" and "It upsets me that there's a tree pumping out oxygen somewhere just to sustain you". Classic stuff.
I'm a white middle aged man and I love funk, soul and hip hop in addition to classic rock, so I would be quite hurt if someone assumed I did not like them because I am white. At the end of the day, this channel is quite reasonably focussed on classic rock as it would be impracticable to cover all genres of music. For newbies, a quick glance at the reviews confirms this. Please don't change anything about the channel. I love it, including the humour and puns.
I very much enjoyed this episode! I find the trolls rather amusing. I tend to have it out with them when I leave comments. It's usually some Gen-Z who read Wikipedia on some older band and feel they are now experts. They usually end up telling me to go f*** myself then proceed to take their comments down. I get a kick out of it but I'm lucky they don't troll my TH-cam channel but that's probably because I only have 3 subscribers!😆
As much as I enjoy your videos and your put downs I think the best way to deal with these trolls is to just to ignore them. Suck the life out them by not giving oxygen to their comments. You have plenty of subscribers who appreciate what you do for those of a certain musical persuasion. You don’t make videos about those that make positive comments about your work so why bother about the lowlifes who are intellectually below the ability of a slug. If you bite back at their comments they win if you don’t they will continue to be nobodies.
Same here (and I am a superfan of Prince 💜...). I appreciate the acknowledgement of all kinds of good music, like Nina Simone, but I come here for the classic rock.
I believe the quote, "Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience" is attributed to Mark Twain.
I'm mixed race, of combined black and white ethnicity and after years of observation have found my specialist subject is people who spend half the day accusing people of being racists or by implication "far right" or non-leftist liberal 'white males' etc. Even before they became as rabid as they are these days, before the BLM slogan sent them into a catatonic frenzy of aggressive finger pointing, possibly while still in my teens when the rock against racism culture left me feeling uncomfortable as I've always had an aversion to banal slogans applied to serious subjects, it troubled me. Anyway I've always suspected a strange latent racism in these accusatory people simply by their obsession with the subject. It seems to preoccupy them 24/7 and they'll look for the minutest detail to convince themselves they've found it in others. Like some medieval witchfinder generals, they seem to delight in finding any perceived imaginary evidence that might reveal some unsuspecting person who expresses an interest in something that doesn't involve black people to be under the influence of dark racist forces. I've always wondered what deep psychological disturbances motivates this incessant preoccupation.
I'm mixed European/Native American and the thing that bothers me the most are the ones who kindly volunteer to somehow represent me or inform me how I should think. I live in Europe and most of the "off colour" comments are through just not knowing, not racism. Why would any psychologically stable individual want the people around them to be walking on egg shells incase they say something not quite right? It's juvenile, narcissistic and incredibly dull.
You made me laugh and for that I thank you. There are still some people who are genuinely nice. We respect everyone but refuse to go along with a lot of the nonsense these days.
"Pompous". Wow. I'd say "educated, interesting and articulate". That presentational style drew me to the channel in the place and is one of the many things keeping me here. Really enjoyed this video showcasing the turds that just won't flush.
There is no end to "diversity'.......remember MTV's campaign on people who were 'light black not understanding people who were 'dark black'?".....you could not make it up! Like all fascists, they descend into purity tests until the adults arrive to send them up to bed.
You have provided at least a dozen comebacks I can use when I get trolled. Definitely a bonus to your usual content. Thank you and keep doing what you do.
These troll-roasts are even better than your music reviews! Loved the passive-aggressive sardonic wit delivered deadpan, dispassionately and deliciously. More, please!
Just seen this. I absolutely love your series and your responses to these trolls in this video are absolutely superb. I would pay money to see you do this live on a stage, brilliant!
You're one of the most intelligent and articulate people on here. Review the stuff you like and keep it real with your own preferences. Tell those people to start their own channel or shut up.
I always agree with MOST of your choices. Your analysis of the Who being a collection of musicians who don't belong together was the best I've ever heard.
" It upsets me that there is a tree out there pumping out oxygen just to sustain you" - absolute classic comeback. I might have to nick that one Barry! Rock on!
I laughed so loud and so often, that my wife asked me (from the other room) what I was laughing at. I enjoyed your response to those semi literate trolls so much that I subscribed. I’m going to listen to this again because there were so many gems. I don’t suppose those hateful people even understand what you said, but I bet their main response was a sort of bemused fury. I’m glad to hear you say that you’ve done this before. I’m going to look for those. Thank you so much for this. When I get undeserved hateful comments on here, I tend to feel hurt and angry. I don’t swear, which is my first instinct. I just try to be calm and polite, but I loved your clever and witty replies. Thanks once again. I’m going to listen to your music reviews now. All the best, Ian.
Funny stuff! It’s always entertaining to call out the MVPs of the idiot team once or twice a year…they just dont realize how moronic they actually are. Nice job!
“I didn’t mean to offend you”, but if I did it’s a bonus!!!! Arrrh brilliant. Well done! People should be called out on being offensive. This video made me laugh!
Oh my God, and I’d thought that your ‘10 Album Covers That I Hate’ video was the greatest video that I’ve ever seen, until this sterling vista of the ‘Eccentric Progmeister’! Beautifully done sir, ALL the way down to the ‘Will To Live’ meter slowly depleting, and your wonderful reference to Sir Winston Churchill’s sublime humor and scathing wit, in regards to your hair moving south comment: “Winston, you are drunk!” “Madam, you are ugly, and I’ll be sober in the morning.”
Hi, there. I'm not in the habit of commenting on TH-cam videos. But I need to tell you how much this has brightened my day :). I started chuckling early on but by the time I was half way through, my wife was asking me what I laughing out loud at. Keep up the great work, Clive.
Middle-aged white man here..... Always enjoy your vids and this one especially. It always amazes me that people waste so much time moaning about something they didn't have to watch. And I will be nicking a few of your quips to use at appropriate times. Keep up the great work and here's a few commas for you ,,,,,,,
Yep, and I'm equally amused by those who announce they're unsubscribing - because they're such important people and the channel will never survive such a devastating loss... 😆 I've unsubscribed from many channels and all it takes is a click, not a song-&-dance!
I wish I wasn’t subscribed so i could subscribe after watching this. By far the funniest script you’ve written. Don’t you dare stop making troll videos.
I would be so disappointed if Bazza calls it quits on the troll comments. Watched him many times but never subscribed, this video response drove me over the edge. LOL and nearly choked on my coffee. Subscribed.🤣👍
Your trolls videos are brilliant so please don’t stop doing them. One of the very best music channels on TH-cam. I don’t always agree with you but you certainly make me think and want to listen to the albums that you review so I can then make my own opinions about them. Top stuff , keep up the good work.
As an American (but rarely a loudmouth like some of my countrymen) I love this channel! I have "kept listening" to Classic Album Review since 2022 and I don't see one reason to stop now. I always look forward to the notification telling me that there is a new video here. I know that a lot of people write negative stuff because they are deeply unhappy, but some of this stuff is just insane. Keep up the good work man, and to hell with the trolls!
Some of these putdowns are sheer class. Vicious, but class. I've had to pause so I can get my notebook. I'll be sure never to get on the wrong side of you! Cheers
Wow, you must have some incredibly thick skin. I don’t know how you do it? I had no idea how many rotten, horribly vicious people there were walking the streets freely? You have one of the most intelligent, insightful, and witty classic rock channels of all! Please keep doing what you’re doing😊
Your constant stream of one-liner put-downs and famous quotes are so funny. You had me laughing out loud on several occasions. I really hope you reconsider and do further Troll videos.
Like any other TH-camr with a music channel, you're simply covering what you love. And in the process, you offer reviews that are generally clever, funny and heartfelt. I also appreciate it when you tackle artists that don't fit so neatly into the classic rock canon, such as Nick Cave or Talking Heads. And rest assured, if I took issue with one of your reviews, I'd be a hell of a lot more articulate than these trolls who are seemingly allergic to self-editing. Thanks for your service. You have a great channel.
Yesterday was the first time I'd seen one of your videos and I rather enjoyed it. So when this one popped up in my feed this evening, I thought okay, why not.... and I must admit, having just witnessed the greatest tongue lashing I've seen in years, that you, Sir, are my new hero! Subscribed, with all notifications! 🤘😄
I was gonna say, don’t pay these people any attention. However, your responses were so good and hilarious, I’m actually glad you did this video. I’m actually going to remember a couple of your quotes. Good job.
Sir i have just subbed after your video just popped up in my home page. The comebacks you gave these nutters is utter genius.....brilliant wit and very humorous. Bravo Sir...Bravo 🤣
You know, although I hate the idea of a 'top ten' list of any thing, I accept that it is a handy...format to use. And I don't agree with all of your selections. But hey, that's the nature of personal opinions - yours, mine, everybodies. But I most definitely support and admire your willingness to raise your head above the proverbial parapet and appaud how you deal with detractors, reactionaries and the just plain rude. Subscribed.
I’ve been watching your videos for a couple of years now and I can only thank you for your work. I have fun, I learn things and I discover great music. Keep it up (I am from south America and sometimes I don’t understand everything you say but that’s all right). Wonderful channel.
Remember there a lot of people running around loose in the world and only so many padded cells. I’ve watched your channel for years for your knowledge & honesty. 👍🏻
An outstanding & downright masterclass in put downs, these trolls clearly have no idea who they're dealing with- well done, sir! 👍 Also, hats off for the magnificent word 'arse-crackery' - I'm going to remember that one & use it as much as I can! 😂 Excellent work- keep it up! 😎
What I love about your channel is that there is a crossover with some of my music and yours. You and I each have an eclectic taste in music that is not pigeon holed into one genre or another. There is so much good music out there. Thanks for exposing even more of it to me.
Barry, to hell with the semi-literate crayon-eaters. I subscribed around 18 months back and very much enjoy your videos (I talk with my hands too 😂) Your comebacks to these utter melts aren't too shabby either 👍
Barry's digit deployments seem appropriate to the task in...er, hand and in the finest traditions of an English cultural chronicler he most certainly is (remember Magnus Pyke ?) but it's not done creepily as say with the likes of Bill Gates; who's obviously in service to satan himself and resembles something akin to a praying mantis.Our esteemed host at CAV consistently delivers significant bangs for the bucks.Best out there imho.Love that Groucho quip.
This was marvellous entertainment! Your command of the English language and your acerbic verbiage is why I watch a channel that has very little music for my tastes. I collect 45s of mostly black music but your superb delivery is compelling which is why I always look out for your videos.
The algorithm brought you to me, and I am grateful. Listening to you reminds me of when I used to go to a friend's house with a few albums and a guitar, and you would spend hours listening and breaking down music until you had a set of riffs and licks for no reason other than to learn and enjoy other people's company. I enjoy your point of view and the sharp comments. I also like someone who doesn't suffer fools. Thanks, and I will be back.
So I’m a middle-aged white guy because I love your videos? Well, that would be news to my West African family! People who think in that reductive way don’t seem to realise that they are adding to the problem. Thanks for your thoughtful videos with a sprinkling of that sardonic humour of yours. I have only discovered you in the last couple of weeks, but you have already prompted me to search out fan groups of a band that I was absolutely obsessed with in the 1980s - The Sound. I used to play “I Can’t Escape Myself” over and over, and have thought of them often over the years. So sad that AB has passed away. I was also glad to see ‘The Teardrop Explodes’ on your list of 80s should-have-been-massive bands. I bought “Kilimanjaro” on vinyl, but left it in my Swansea Uni digs when I flunked out in 1984. Carry on the good work, and please ignore the trolls. “Don't mess with the man/He'll never understand,” as Jimi said.
Enjoyed this trolls video as much as your normal fare. I don’t always agree with your opinions on some albums/musical content etc, but that’s the beauty of music…..we all like different things, for different reasons. But, sometimes there are things I disagree with, and then go and revisit said album or band, and realise there might have been something I missed, and look, or hear it with different eyes / ears. Enjoy the channel. Keep on rocking 👍🏻
“The only thing I’d like to do with your body is identify it.” OMG that’s so savage, I love it.
That is the funniest statement I've heard in a long time. I' can't wait to use it!
Almost choked on my coffee with that one....Epic! 😂
I'm totally stealing that one.
Morrissey quote!
Classic!
I really hope you do actually upload another one of these. I haven't laughed so much in years. Your retorts are off the scale savage!😂
"As popular as a bonus track on a Yoko Ono album." Take a bow Sir.
The bonus track is 5 minutes absolute silence - best track on the album😄
OMG that's hilarious 😂😂 love it 👍👍👍

Probably the finest collection of put downs available from a single source. Bravo sir.
It’s pure art !
Hard to believe that all of this is in response to someone talking about which popular music they like and dislike. Incredible.
HOLY SHIT!! I just spit my drink out "this person is probably about popular as a bonus track on a Yoko Ono album"

I was gonna say, don’t pay these people any attention. However, your responses were so good and hilarious, I’m actually glad you did this video. I’m actually going to remember a couple of your quotes. Good job.
I appreciate that
Love the snappy one liners, and your sarcasm in general. Keep up the great work!
"The only tbing I'd like to do with your body is identify it" 😅 Love it!
Sir i have just subbed after your video just popped up in my home page.
The comebacks you gave these nutters is utter genius.....brilliant wit and very humorous.
Bravo Sir...Bravo 🤣
Barry, I have to say some of your put downs to these trolls are hilarious, keep them coming.
You know, although I hate the idea of a 'top ten' list of any thing, I accept that it is a handy...format to use.
And I don't agree with all of your selections. But hey, that's the nature of personal opinions - yours, mine, everybodies.
But I most definitely support and admire your willingness to raise your head above the proverbial parapet and appaud how you deal with detractors, reactionaries and the just plain rude.
Subscribed.
we love ya Barry, your sense of humor keeps me watching. Tell your wife, we need more color on that canvas.
I’ve been watching your videos for a couple of years now and I can only thank you for your work. I have fun, I learn things and I discover great music. Keep it up (I am from south America and sometimes I don’t understand everything you say but that’s all right). Wonderful channel.
Awesome, thank you!
Sardonic excellence makes me properly laugh. Lovely lovely stuff. I've taken notes for my own use!
What can i say , I'm really enjoying watching this video , keep up the good work !!
You Comebacks are amazing!! Wish i had your vocab, Love your videos keep it up :)
I love your sense of humour and your bravery. It doesn't come through often enough but on this one, bravo!
Remember there a lot of people running around loose in the world and only so many padded cells. I’ve watched your channel for years for your knowledge & honesty. 👍🏻
Haha, I really enjoyed this one! Please keep doing what you do, love your work 🙂
Life is too short for these idiots. I watch music-themed channels to get away from sociopolitical ranting and negative energy. Keep up the great work!
Hear hear!
Top level snark on display here had me in stitches. I lost it at "you're as popular as a bonus track on a Yoko Oko album."
An outstanding & downright masterclass in put downs, these trolls clearly have no idea who they're dealing with- well done, sir! 👍 Also, hats off for the magnificent word 'arse-crackery' - I'm going to remember that one & use it as much as I can! 😂 Excellent work- keep it up! 😎
What I love about your channel is that there is a crossover with some of my music and yours. You and I each have an eclectic taste in music that is not pigeon holed into one genre or another.
There is so much good music out there. Thanks for exposing even more of it to me.
Barry, to hell with the semi-literate crayon-eaters. I subscribed around 18 months back and very much enjoy your videos (I talk with my hands too 😂) Your comebacks to these utter melts aren't too shabby either 👍
Barry's digit deployments seem appropriate to the task in...er, hand and in the finest traditions of an English cultural chronicler he most certainly is (remember Magnus Pyke ?) but it's not done creepily as say with the likes of Bill Gates; who's obviously in service to satan himself and resembles something akin to a praying mantis.Our esteemed host at CAV consistently delivers significant bangs for the bucks.Best out there imho.Love that Groucho quip.
Crayon-eaters, brilliant I must scribble that down.🤣👍
Please, please, please can we have another one of these videos. Your put-downs are freaking brilliant.🙂
This was marvellous entertainment! Your command of the English language and your acerbic verbiage is why I watch a channel that has very little music for my tastes. I collect 45s of mostly black music but your superb delivery is compelling which is why I always look out for your videos.
The algorithm brought you to me, and I am grateful. Listening to you reminds me of when I used to go to a friend's house with a few albums and a guitar, and you would spend hours listening and breaking down music until you had a set of riffs and licks for no reason other than to learn and enjoy other people's company. I enjoy your point of view and the sharp comments. I also like someone who doesn't suffer fools. Thanks, and I will be back.
" The only thing I'd like to do with your body, is identify it. "
That's the best thing I've heard for about 9 years.
So I’m a middle-aged white guy because I love your videos? Well, that would be news to my West African family! People who think in that reductive way don’t seem to realise that they are adding to the problem. Thanks for your thoughtful videos with a sprinkling of that sardonic humour of yours. I have only discovered you in the last couple of weeks, but you have already prompted me to search out fan groups of a band that I was absolutely obsessed with in the 1980s - The Sound. I used to play “I Can’t Escape Myself” over and over, and have thought of them often over the years. So sad that AB has passed away. I was also glad to see ‘The Teardrop Explodes’ on your list of 80s should-have-been-massive bands. I bought “Kilimanjaro” on vinyl, but left it in my Swansea Uni digs when I flunked out in 1984. Carry on the good work, and please ignore the trolls. “Don't mess with the man/He'll never understand,” as Jimi said.
Enjoyed this trolls video as much as your normal fare. I don’t always agree with your opinions on some albums/musical content etc, but that’s the beauty of music…..we all like different things, for different reasons. But, sometimes there are things I disagree with, and then go and revisit said album or band, and realise there might have been something I missed, and look, or hear it with different eyes / ears. Enjoy the channel. Keep on rocking 👍🏻
