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 Everly Brothers - Roots: 3.5 stars
If I were starting from scratch, I probably wouldn't own this at all, as too prototypical. As it is, I bought it on vinyl based on Christgau's high estimation of it. Then I rebought on CD when it was reissued, without having realized how lukewarm I am on it. I guess I will keep both, because I don't want to give up the CD, or the pristine vinyl just yet.
