Help me stay with Vinyl.


Please, help direct me towards good sources of clean vinyl.  
As an emerging Jazz fan, I wish not to go to the dark side of digital.  Love my tube, all-analog system, but the cost of good, clean sounding, vinyl is getting to me.  
I need some guidance.

Why not enjoy both mediums? As people are pointing out digital recordings have evolved to a point that if the source material is done right you can enjoy both.
My analog front end has 40,000 invested in it yet my digital front end  ( Modwright modified Sony 9000es, Cryoed Tung Sol tubes,Darwin The Truth silver inter connects,Acoustc Zen Krakatoa ll and Cardas Golden reference power chords)has 3000 invested in it and it rivals my analog front end. You can find cd's on the cheap at Charity outlets and Thrift stores and in over a 5 year span the money you save would. pay for your cd player investment. Enjoy both analog and digital not just one over the other. Just my 2 cents and buy used equipment and save your money for music.

This doesn't exactly answer your question, but here's a suggestion ...

Seeing as how you are a jazz fan, as am I, I'd like to suggest that you check out jazz recorded on the Contemporary, Bethlehem and the Pacific Jazz labels. Their recordings are superb, including their mono recordings.

I discovered that Japanee pressing are the most reliable pressings
out there and since Jazz is a favorite in Japan there are many
used LPs for sale .  
facerecords grading can be trusted 100% , found on E-bay .
Also for new pressing you can trust Speakers Corner .
I've resently purchased a few new Miles Davis albums ,
BUT make sure they are Columbia pressings  .
I've also picked up some great Blue Note 
and Analog Production re-issues .

I use a Spin Clean record cleaner , someday maybe an Ultrasonic .
