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).

Fangool - Jot Sa Bop: ? stars
This is not actually a review, because I have not heard this album in its entirety. But I spent a fair bit of time searching for it, to no avail, and want to memorialize that, and note that I would snatch up a digital file or reasonably priced physical if I ever come across it. My interest is based on the track "Nianing" (appears on the compilation Escale au Senegal as "Naning"), which is stunning. The other track I have heard is "Mariama," which appears on the compilation Senegal 70 and is not quite as good, but does tend to indicate that this album would be well worth hearing.
