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).

The Velvet Underground - 1969 Velvet Underground Live: 4 stars
Have this on vinyl and will keep it, but after listening to the Quine bootlegs, this, The Complete Matrix Tapes, and discs 5 and 6 of the "super deluxe" version of the eponymous album, it's clear that there is no ideal way to collect these classic live performances. This and the Quine tapes sound bad. The Complete collection is too much, and is way OOP, and the "super deluxe" discs can't be bought separately. So I will burn the latter and stick them on my shelves as a two-CD bootleg set.
