Cat Power - Moon Pix [liked]

:-) [I had this at one point, but I'm pretty sure I sold it off before starting this blog. I'll keep the album cover up though, since I did have it, and my grade could easily switch to 7 (B+). It really hovers between those two, and some people really love it.]

Johnny Cash - Songwriter: 7 (B+)

# [country]

Kieran Hebden [Four Tet] and Steve Reid - The Exchange Session Vol. 1: 7.5 (high B+)

# [live; electronic]

Toots & The Maytals: Pass the Pipe: 7 (B+)

Out of print and prices used as if it were a lost treasure, instead of this grade. So I won’t be on the lookout for reasonably-priced copies.

Material - Seven Souls: 7 (B+)

# [experimental]

Peter and the Test Tube Babies - Peter and the Test Tube Babies: 7 (B+)

Originally issued as the import-only Soberphobia, and this US-issued, self-titled version is prohibitively expensive used and was only reissued on remastered CDr, also unavailable for reasonable prices. At this grade, I will not be keeping an eye out for reasonably-priced copies.
