J Geils Band - The Morning After

The recent MFSL vinyl reissue. Killer performance. Killer sound.

[Sir Thrift-a-Lot]

Soundtrack - Falling from Grace (JC Mellencamp, etc.)

Never on vinyl in the US (and unlikely to ever be), I got this from Holland. Ain't the internet grand?

Drive By Truckers - The Unraveling

DBT would have been huge in the 70s.

Black Pumas.   Bought the one year deluxe after they won the Grammy.   This is seriously excellent stuff.

Just finished Black Uhuru "Brutal" and moved to a mellower
Buffalo Springfield "Last Time Around", from a recent 300+
 collection purchase. 

Thanks and a tip of the hat to RGPIT for the reference

Sounding good on the Canton CT800s

Donny Hathaway - Live

There is a 180 gram reissue for RSD and I couldn't remember the condition of this album.   I had one that was beat then I got this one as an upgrade.   But I couldn't remember how much of an upgrade.   This has some clicks, but good enough that I think I can save $27 or whatever the new one sells for.

Muddy Waters - At Newport 1960

[Sir Thrift-a-Lot]

Warren Zevon - Preludes

I've had a lot of vinyl issues of items from the CD era, but this is the first time I have seen the jewel box booklet exactly reproduced to 12" scale. The only differences is that it is much heavier gloss paper and it is square bound instead of stapled. The powder blue vinyl is beautiful and sounds great. This is an impressive RSD effort. Sometimes these are cynical cash grabs but this was obviously a labor of love.

Carole King - Tapestry

The Classic Records reissue

The Classic Records pressings of this album were cut from the master tapes by Bernie Grundman. All other LP issues (including the CBS 1/2 speed master) were cut from EQ'd production copies. The bass guitar, which originally just blended in with the rest of the music, is now clear and omnipresent in the foreground. You can hear and feel every note as if you're sitting right in front of the amp. It literally jumps out at you.
