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).

Thomas Mapfumo & The Blacks Unlimited - Gwindingwi Rine Shumba: 9 (A)
Definitely one of the coolest album covers of all time. Also, a great album, but since the best three tracks (the first three) are all on Chimurenga Forever, and they are by far the best, I will skip this one. The first three are A quality or higher, while the remaining 5 are B+ quality, averaging out to 8 (A-). [Later upped to 9 (A). Yes, the middle tracks are not as strong, but it's still a beautiful album on the whole.]
