Before Nov 2020, grades range from 5 stars 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+), 7 (B+). Ungraded albums are honorable mention :-), neutral :-|, negative :-(. At least 3 listens per album. Search "Grade Post" for more info. [I shelved/sold 10,000-12,000 albums before starting this blog and will add entries for some of those as they come up. If you don't see an album, it doesn't mean I don't know it.]

Miles Davis - Cookin' at the Plugged Nickel: 4 stars
I really like this one, which is saying something given that I don't relate to much jazz. I also listened to Highlights from the Plugged Nickel a couple times, and was not moved to buy it. I actually went with the At Plugged Nickel, Chicago import set. I think it's a nice compromise from the single CD sets from this stand in Chicago, and the "Complete" set which Penguin loves so much. I will listen to that once just to be thorough, but I think it's a bit too much. The import set is the perfect 2 CD compromise, in a nice slim case, and I'll probably give it 4.5 stars.
