Great sounding new vinyl

Ok, I should have posted this on the "music" thread but some records are so important for us to reveal the full potential of our analog gear that we can call them "reference records" for testing a new cartridge or phonopreamp.
The music section of HiFi + gives a rating for sonics and this is how I discovered Pure Pleasure records a few years back, I listened to Stevie Ray Vaughan "Couldnt Stand The Weather" and was totaly blown away. My whole audiophile journey started there...

Five out of the 6 new LP's I have purchased were warped. Seems high to me.

Mudcrutch sounds excellent.

Gang,

Here are a few good-excellent sounding purchases of new music over the past year:

Shins "Wincing The Night Away"
Mudcrutch (Tom Petty with his original band) "Eponymous"
White Stripes "Icky Thump"
Raconteurs "Consolers of the Lonely"
Elvis Costello "Momufoko" (?sp?)
Shelby Lynne "Just A Little Lovin"

New music with less than stellar sonics:

Gutter Twins "Saturnalia"
Menomena "Friend of Foe"
The National "Boxer" (fabulous album)

A sampling of new old stock recordings of merit:

Grace Jones "Slave To The Rythym"
Robert Palmer "Clues"
The Bangles "Everything"
Phil Woods "More Live"
A/C D/C "Back in Black"
Stevie Wonder "Songs in the Key of Life" (Speakers Corner Reissue)
Flip Phillips "A Real Swinger"
Duke Ellington w/Ray Brown "This One's For Blanton"
