Some stars been dropped here (with a careful lax):

*****
Classic, mostly masterpiece, often mouth left open.

****
Good, sometimes brilliant.

***
Ordinary, nothing special. They tried too hard or didn't go all the way.

**
Wasted vinyl, time and money mainly. Ready to recycle.

*
Lousy: criminal act. Yes, sue them.

***

Bless your lucky stars

Mainly it's simple: the music that I love get stars. Therefore Britney Timberlake gets *, while Bruce Springsteen faces *****. See?

+ + +

Some records have extra pluses (+ to +++). It's NOT the plus in the usual musical manner. It means that certain song has specific relevancy to me. Deeper touché of vinyls, should I say.


[Charts]

These are the lists of site author's vinyl collections. Eight different section. International albums, maxi singles, singles and camp! records.
Same with the Finnish ones, except maxis replaced with the old Finnish dance music albums (like humppa).

Gray box after the name shows details, such as the year record was released, record label and the number of catalog.

The most relevant aka best maxi singles are highlighted by using blue color. About the basis for ratings (*), read the additional info on the right panel.

International Maxi Singles

No. I really don't listen to this kind of disco bull and never did. This section is only for to remember and never forget; that there once was this pretty odd world of mirror balls, tent pantlegs and endless monotonic two four-bars. Har.
