@knollbrent as you asked
Here’s a good sense of what I like listening too -- some of these LPs are rare and expensive in the original versions but one of the great benefits of services like Spotify is that you can sample say the Heron and decide if it’s your cup of tea before pursuing the chase for an original

Spillane Atlantic Bridge btw is a blockbuster recording and a Fremer favorite. The Tara is slightly better than the Cooking Vinyl, but both are good.
In terms of more recent material that is on my go to test list you need to own at least one copy of Janis Ian’s "Breaking Silence". The copy to own is the original numbered AP 33 pressing which to my ears beats the newer 45RPM (although the latter is still very good)
Also have on hand a copy of Joni’s Blue -- this one is fine, although a clean original US or UK is also great and one should always keep an original as reference.
Finally if I was in Miami I would be hightailing it to this store which seems to have a very interesting selection
Enjoy!
