Dave,
You seem to have both olfactory and auditory deficiencies.
Work on both of those ok?

Great sounding new vinyl
Strange how everyone's list (except Jazdoc's) spans the dawn of recorded sound until, oh, around 1987. Recommendations thin out in a hurry thereafter...hey, isn't that around the time digital became the ascendant recording AND playback medium?? Funny how that works... I'll make a modern-era recommendation: M. Ward - his Merge Records releases have been exemplary (sonically and (for me) musically), with special merit to "Transistor Radio". "Post War", and the recent rereleases of "Duet for Guitars #2" and "Transfiguration of Vincent" are also excellent. Although not easy to peg, I like to classify his music as 'contemporary old-timey' - lots of processed guitar sounds, harmonica, theremin, crickets... Clear as a mudpuddle, right?? Good listening, -Richard |
For good vinyl recommendations, don't forget the long lived thread begun by Slipknot1: Whats on your turntable tonight? I'm regularly finding excellent recommendations being posted there. . |
Some recent vinyl that hits high by any measure is: Shearwater: Rook Wilco: Sky Blue Sky Ray Davies: Workingman's Cafe Elvis Costello: Momofuku Gutter Twins: Saturnalia Stephen Malkmus: Real Emotional Trash Alejandro Escovedo: Real Animal Zooey Deschanel/M. Ward: She & Him Levon Helm: Dirt Farmer Plant & Kraus: Raising Sand Radiohead: In Rainbows Mathew Sweet: Sunshine Lies |
