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).

R.E.M. - Chronic Town: 8.5 (high A-)
Never released on CD. They should do that, in a little slipcase, and sell it for $7. As it is, I have it on cassette, but no means to play it. I thought of rebuying it on vinyl, but I wouldn't want the re-issue (I never buy re-issued vinyl), and the original releases are ridiculously over-priced. So since I already bought it, I took the rare step of downloading a FLAC version, and burning it to CD, putting it on the shelves in a slim case. If they ever do what I said above, I will buy it. [Update: They did it in 2022. Purchased.]
