Have this one on vinyl, like Higher Plane. Did an hours-long survey of reviews of his huge catalog too. Here's what I came up with outside of the more obvious must-have run of Gets Next to You through Livin' for You, plus The Belle Album. First grade is Christgau, second is Tom Hull, third is the Rolling Stone guide. Highlighted albums are in the collection.
Explores Your Mind - B+/A-/4 stars
Is Love - A/A-/3.5 stars
Full of Fire - B+/A-/3.5 stars
Have a Good Time - B+/B+/3 stars
Truth n' Time - B+/**/4 stars
Lord Will Make a Way - B+/B+/4 stars
He Is the Light - B+/**/3.5 stars
Soul Survivor - A-/B+/3.5 stars
Update (December 2025): I am currently fully evaluating the struck-through albums above.
