This is Audiophile vinyl, most of them are 200 gram and 45 RPM for quality improvement. The sound is astonishing. I listen to them every day and never is enough. All of them are available at my Quality Records Audiophile Vinyl e-shop as well. For the clients from Europe http://www.qualityrecords.shop/

My two favourites for some years, great music and recording: Sara K-Waterfalls, on the Stockfisch label, Mark Murphy-Love is What Stays, on Verve Both of them, you just know you are in for a treat, after the first few bars (Not the first track on Waterfalls, which is of a busking Sax player)

A dubious "thanks" to qualityrecordshop for resurrecting it. I won’t claim these are "audiophile" recordings in the contemporary sense; e.g., the LPs are just original or at least very early pressing vinyl. All selections have exceptional sound compared to many other recordings I own. No doubt, a few more could be added to each list, but in keeping with the OPs original idea.... LPs 1. Dire Straits - Love Over Gold (especially, Private Investigations) 2. Laurie Anderson - Mister Heartbreak 3. Stevie Ray Vaughn - Couldn’t Stand the Weather (primarily, Tin Pan Alley) CD/SACD 1. Andy Summers - Last Dance of Mr. X (HDCD) 2. Peter Gabriel - UP (SACD) 3. Steely Dan - Gaucho (SACD)
