Flipper - American Grafishy: liked

Might be a 7 (B+) (what’s so wrong with this that it gets panned by almost everyone?), but I owned it once and sold it off, and I’m not buying it again for more than a few bucks, which isn’t possible, so….

Les Ambassadeurs du Motel de Bamako - Les Ambassadeurs du Motel de Bamako: [8 (A-)]

This is on final listen shelf, so grade is provisional. Posted so I don't get confused about it.

Les Ambassadeurs Internationales Featuring Salif Keita - Les Ambassadeurs Internationales Featuring Salif Keita [Rounder, 1992]: 8 (A-)

The Dictators - Go Girl Crazy!: 7.5 (high B+)

Various - Rock 'n' Roll High School (Music From The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack): notation

I couldn’t find this to stream in its entirety, so I pieced together the songs I might not already have: “I Want You Around” (Ramones), “Come On Let's Go” (Paley Brothers/Ramones), “Ramones Medley” (Ramones), “Rock 'n' Roll High School” (P.J. Soles), and “A Dream Goes on Forever” (Todd Rundgren). I did listen to these three times each and won’t be assigning a grade to a partial album. I also played the Ramone's single “Carbona Not Glue” b/w “I Can’t Be” in the same way as part of this exercise for some reason.
