A+ // A record that approaches perfection. // 100-96%
A // A great record with only a couple weaker tracks. // 95-91%
A- // A great record that is either over-produced, micro-marketed or just missing something to get rid of that minus. // 90-86%
B+ // A very good record that sometimes flirts with the half-assed. // 85-81%
B // A good record often thoroughly enjoyed by the artist's fanbase. Nothing extraordinary, but definitely decent. // 80-76%
*** // Honorable Mention. For those who cherish it. // 80-79%
** // Honorable Mention. For those who enjoy it. // 78-77%
* // Honorable Mention. For those who like its over-riding aesthetic. // 76-75%
B- // Has a fair few good tracks but is either too long, too repetitive, or just plain too much of something at times. // 75-71%
C+ // A hackwork kind of record. Pick and choose your favorites. // 70-66%
C // Professional record with seemingly no substance OR a decent try at something different. Often corny. // 65-60%
C- // Honest work that doesn't quite cut it. Also often quite corny. // 59-50%
✂️ // 1 or 2 good songs could be cut out and added to a greatest hits album. // 49-45%
💣 // A grade of D, E or F lands a "dud". It fails in every way. // 44-0%

Thx for the comment, great chart here too!
I actually do like jazz but the majority of my favourites are from the 50s (and then from 40s). Not much into Brubeck or Mingus, but like Davis, and Coltrane. And love Monk, Reinhardt, Parker and Ellington.
