I have about 5,000 CDs, all of which will ultimately make it on to this great site. I've been collecting them since 1988 or so, with most purchased in the 90s. I use 3.5 as an "average" rating- if something is 2.5, the only reason it's in a collection of music I still actively listen to is because it is rare, odd or in some way or unique. There are plenty of albums, in other words, recorded in the past 50 years with one worthwhile song on them.

I'm trying to write down my first take on what I think on seeing the cover as a review. No polished, considered thoughts here. Agree or disagree, it's great to be part of your musical universe.
