Can you shoot me 2 VINYL albums that cost

sound superb and the musical performance is fantastic?  

Albums in the proverbial cannon--i.e. Joni Mitchell Blue, Miles Davis Blue--are acceptable yet it would be great to get others slightly off the cannon radar. 

Thanks much!  I am excited to see your responses.

Great, great recs everyone. Thanks for keeping me busy!

I mistakenly forgot to finish my post on cost—I was hoping for $40 or less.

Mine easily meet that criteria.

Gillian Welch "The Harrow and the Harvest" and "Soul Journey".

Sadly there have been pressing problems with SJ.

These two are easily some of the best of 2018

@slaw +1

I use these albums regularly when non-audiophile friends ask if they can hear the weird looking speakers in the living room. "Look at Miss Ohio" on SJ gives everybody goosebumps, especially when the drums drop in.

I have also been listening to "Small Town Heroes" by Hurray For The Riff Raff and the music and the pressing are superb.  If you are a Gillian fan check them out.

Finally, you cannot go wrong with Ry Cooder, my recommendation would be Paradise and Lunch
