Randomized selections from a very incomplete (yet pretty large) playlist of Robert Christgau’s Honorable-Mention mentions and Choice-Cut choices, as well as other song recommendations or even faint praise from Additional Consumer News and from reviews mostly of albums receiving less than an A-Minus. (A-grade albums being best heard whole.)
