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.

OP,
180 gram pressings are audiophile pressings… I think “normal” are around 120 (just guessing… and it is variable). Most of the time these 180g are better sounding pressings… but not always. I have a few 180 gram stinkers. If you start collecting them, then it is best to read reviews first.
Yes, I would get him the stereo version. My mistake if I linked to the mono. Some folks love the mono versions. I am not one of them and the stereo version of Kind of Blue is wonderful.
Yes, they are available from multiple outlets. |
If you friend is 60-something maybe a nice copy of Television's "Marquee Moon". Look for the Elektra/Rhino release. https://www.discogs.com/release/8159078-Television-Marquee-Moon
