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.

Various - Dancehall Stylee: The Best of Reggae Dancehall Music, Vol. 1 [Profile, 1989]: 8 (A-)
Update (August 2026): Raised two notches, and so collected. Great compilation, and yet another example of catch-up with Christgau for me -- this time it was only about four months. Man he was on fire in the 1980s.
