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).

Various Artists - American Epic: The Soundtrack: 3.5 stars
Pretty good, but doesn't do anything for me that Harry Smith didn't do long ago. Plus, it's a real hodgepodge, and the changes in styles are jarring. I do have hopes for the 5 CD set though ("The Collection"), in that presumably it will be more of a piece, or each CD will. But I'm going to wait to see if anyone says good things about it.
