Please post your audiophile vinyl recommendations.
These are my last 3 purchases, two reissues and one brand new release.

This album have somehow gone unnoticed to me. All the greats are playing here; Miles, Coltrane, Bill Evans, Ben Webster....what a find, great arrangements, good sound.

I have the digital download of this album as well: ''Carmen Gomes sings the Blues'' which is a more apt title.
The recording was done direct to two track analog tape following a pure analog signal chain. Very impressive sound quality and the band is fabulous. Jazz is alive and well.

Here's one. Nice acoustic blues album that transports you to the room in which it was recorded live - without headphones, over-dubs, pitch, or tempo adjustments. Listen for the squeaky chair when Doug leans back from time to time!

And +1 one for Carmen Gomes on Vinyl too!

With this kind of releases, no wonder Vinyl has surpassed CD sales.
