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).

Art Pepper - Winter Moon: X stars
Not qualified to grade this. In fact, I had never even heard of it until I noticed Tom Hull gave it the same grade as these:
Shape of Jazz to Come, A+
Love Supreme, A+
'Round About Midnight, A+
Mingus Ah Um, A+
Saxophone Colossus, A+
Tribute to Jack Johnson, A+
I do not understand, but he definitely has better jazz ears than I do. Maybe I'm having trouble getting past the strings. This sounds like elevator or dentist office music to me. [5 listens]
