Help me select few vinyl LPs
I owe my friend big favor, and since I know he recently obtained high quality TT I'd like to buy him few "must have" well recorded LPs in Jazz or Rock. He is new to vinyl and has only few LPs.
I had TT 40 years ago and don't know anything about vinyl quality. I buy CDs on Amazon, buy there might be better places to buy vinyl. I will be grateful for any recommendation.

I like diskogs, because I can find near mint or mint vinyl of albums that are not "current" pressings. I usually source new releases from Amazon. I suggest that your friend considers using diskogs to catalog what he purchases. It makes it a lot easier, when visiting record stores, to determine whether you already own an album. Dan |
Another vote for the Blue Note Tone Poet series, any of the pressings there would be a fine addition to a collection. Oscar Peterson is an artist worth collecting as well. Lots of great choices, here's one that I think is very well done: https://store.acousticsounds.com/d/175940/The_Oscar_Peterson_Trio-On_A_Clear_Day_-_Live_in_Zurich_1971-Vinyl_Record?gad=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjw_5unBhCMARIsACZyzS32zXiVzfK8Q7-7LHCSY_IQC4xhqkhc-GGmccCqD3ZPQreh4Jkgy-caAjwjEALw_wcB

A card with a note that the Amazon gift card enclosed is intended for him to select/buy LP's for his 'new' TT setup transfers your excitement for his TT, and transfers the content choice to him. Amazon card, because whatever he chooses to spend the money on, i.e. garden rake, clothing .... is easily returnable. |
