Unlisted LPs
The following is a list of albums from my old record lists (and what's
left of my memory) that I hadn't brought forward into my current list
system. In some of these cases I'm changing my mind and adding them to
the list system, with grades (noted) as best I can remember. A few may
be marked * to indicate that I still have the LP (most LPs were dumped
when I moved from NJ back to KS); those cases should disappear from
this list and join the list system as grade U until I get around to
them.
Regular Albums:
These were albums of newly released material. Usually I didn't evaluate
them under the current list system because I didn't remember them clearly
enough, or because I didn't consider them sufficiently important to bother
with, or because subsequent reissues limited the value of considering them
in their original configuration.

Classical Music
Finally, a list of classical (including some modern or avant or whatever
you call that shit these days). This was never an interest in building
the database, although some has crept in. I had some interest in 12-tone
and serialism at one point, and more so in early electronics, but haven't
paid much attention since 1980, so that interest is very rusty. I never
could stand classical classical music, and don't expect to ever
take it up. Laura is quite fond of mediaeval and baroque musics, so I
may add her records to this list at some point, and may even listen to
a few.
