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).

Gregory Isaacs - Mr. Love: 8.5 (high A-)
Contains (and only contains) 7 out of 10 tracks from Cool Ruler (1978), 6 out of 10 tracks from Soon Forward (1979), 5 out of 10 tracks from More Gregory (1981), and 3 out of 10 tracks from Lonely Lover (1980). This seems to get it just right. Makes getting those individual releases unnecessary for all but the most rabid fans. Totally solves the "Gregory Isaacs problem" (namely, his releasing ~1000 albums in a 5 year peak period).
