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 noted as liked :-) (honorable mention), neutral :-|, and disliked :-(. At least 4 listens per graded album and 3 listens per ungraded album. Search "Grade Post" for more info. I sold/shelved ~10,000 albums after at least 3 or 4 listens, respectively, before starting this blog and will add entries for those as they arise.

Art Blakey - Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers with Thelonious Monk: 8 (A-)
Not sure why I got this, since it doesn't seem universally acclaimed. I think it's because it's one of the handful of albums that has been a "crown" album in every issue of the Penguin guide.
