The Clash - Black Market Clash [EP]: 10 (A+)

I'm probably one of the few people in the world who would name this as their favorite Clash album. I also have Super Black Market Clash, which I will not grade separately.

The Traveling Wilburys - Volume 1: 8 (A-)

The conceit's not clumsy, it's corny. But the concept ends up working, well enough at least.

Spacemen 3 - Playing with Fire: 7 (B+)

The Velvet Underground, made slightly boring. The first four songs are snooze fests and should definitely have been left off this overlong but intermittently exciting album. # experimental
