Before 11/2020, grades range from 5 to 3.5 stars. After that, grade range is: 10 (A+), 9.5 (high A), 9 (A), 8.5 (high A-), 8 (A-), 7.5 (high B+), and 7 (B+). Ungraded albums are liked (fka honorable mention) :-), neutral :-|, and negative :-(. At least 3 listens per posted album. Search "Grade Post" for more info. I shelved/sold ~10,000 albums after at least 3 listens before starting this blog and will add entries for those as they come up. Yes, I know that album (probably).

Kurt Vile - Wakin on a Pretty Daze: 3.5 stars
We get it -- you're way baked. This and his prior album -- Smoke Ring for My Halo -- are very, extremely similar, and all the reviews seem to back this up. Don't really feel the need to have two of his works in the collection, as well as that The War on Drugs album, so I'll go with my old standby: All else being equal, the earlier one gets the nod. But they're both good.
