To contact Fast 'n' Bulbous email

DO NOT email unsolicited links to watermarked downloads unless a secure user account and password is used. Fast n' Bulbous' control of the security of third party files' cannot be guaranteed, and will not be held responsible for the security of unsolicited emails. Fast 'n' Bulbous cannot control the security of hosting company maintained data and email servers nor the security of ISPs nor of wireless connections.
Since October 1995, Fast 'n' Bulbous has been a one man operation, a labor of love rather than profit venture. I maintain an editorial policy of publishing mainly positive reviews, with the idea that people should be turned on to the best music. I only review what I feel like because I don't get paid for it.
The only drawback to this site is the drain on my resources. I mostly still buy the CDs of the majority of albums I review. And while I try to mostly review the cream of the crop, I have listened to thousands upon thousands of albums ranging from average to vomit-inducing, so that you don't have to. While you spend your valuable time having a life, furthering your education, raising a family, making a real living, having fun, I take the bullet, sacrificing my time suffering through the pabulum to unearth the gems. Feel free to express your appreciation for this service with a donation!
