Diary of a Melomaniac

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.

Etran de L'Air - No. 1: 7 (B+)

I find it inconceivable that anyone could rate this at the same level as their next album, Agadez, but both Christgau and Hull inexplicably did just that. It was those two guyses' grades that kicked it up to 7 (B+) for me, while it hovered somewhere between that and "liked," mostly trending towards the latter. #desertblues
