Overall this is very good, very nearly GA. Well-written. The only blind spot that I find is that I know the box set received some end-of-year acclaim—for instance, through Metacritic I found that it was listed in Dusted's top ten. PopMatters also ranked it. The Wire included it in their 2012 wrap-up and also likely reviewed it. There's probably some more out there.

Also, most of the reception included is from mainstream sources, but there was probably considerable coverage in specialist jazz (classical, for that matter) corners as well. All of this would be great information to include, but I think the further jazz research isn't necessary to bump this to GA. --Brandt Luke Zorn (talk) 08:05, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I didnt include those two rankings because one is by a magazine that didnt seem notable (no article) and PopMatters' is at number 55, which would undermine the idea that it was lauded (only 55?). All I could find from The Wire was a review snippet through Google, which I added. Do you know where to find The Wire's year-end list? Dan56 (talk) 16:46, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It's probably only available in print but I don't have that issue—if you can eventually get it that would be a plus. You could still cite the issue and say that it was mentioned/included in their 2012 Rewind issue. And yeah, the low placement on PopMatters is because jazz is still pretty marginalized among indie-oriented music publications (that it was even ranked there says a lot, though it's sad to see a contemporary classic ranked below both Taylor Swift and Jack White; kinda like knowing that great movies like Beasts of the Southern Wild or Amour that few saw were longer shots at winning Best Picture than the mediocre Les Mis. But I digress.) I'd probably stick to saying it was ranked in their end-of-year list without listing its exact number. --Brandt Luke Zorn (talk) 20:37, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Just Googled "The Wire 2012 rewind", and if this is accurate/reliable, it's number 31. Piecing it together with this, the Rewind was the January 2013 issue. I also found this "best-of" snippet from the album's label site. Added all of this to the article. Dan56 (talk) 23:10, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding specialist jazz publications, I added a review by Bob Rusch of Cadence. Someone else could have probably done a better job with it; I could post Rusch's text about it here but that would probably fall on the wrong side of WP:COPYVIO. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 18:59, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I like what you took from the review, since it gets a bit at the sound and meaning of the piece.
Also, I've passed the article to GA. By this point it more than meets the standard for GA and can grow beyond that. --Brandt Luke Zorn (talk) 19:44, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I noticed that it had already reached GA (congratulations to Dan56), but since you had specifically asked, I thought I would add the review from Cadence (I had just read it last week, so it was still fresh on my mind today when I read your comment). -- Gyrofrog (talk) 20:15, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
