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).

Gary Stewart - Best of the Hightone Years: 4 stars
Only three songs on here overlap with Gary's Greatest, which, while also on Hightone, includes material from his RCA catalog. So an easy way to think of these is that this is the Hightone best of, while Gary's Greatest is the RCA best of. Ie, you need them both, but the first one more. And then there's the two-fer of Out of Hand plus Your Place or Mine, which I will grade some other day. That two-fer is necessary because only 5 of the songs on those RCA albums are on Gary's Greatest (to make room for some of the Hightone cuts, obviously).
