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 noted as liked :-) (honorable mention), neutral :-|, and disliked :-(. At least 4 listens per graded album and 3 listens per ungraded album. Search "Grade Post" for more info. I sold/shelved ~10,000 albums after at least 3 or 4 listens, respectively, before starting this blog and will add entries for those as they arise.

Life Without Buildings - Any Other City [Tugboat, 2001]: 7 (B+)
Five or six plays. Not sure why all the highest praise for this one keeps appearing as time marches on. It sounds good, but the songs don't stick. But they should capitalize on the praise and give it a proper reissue (issuance?), because prices are ridiculous. Maybe I'll try the live one, or the session tape EP.
