Great sounding new vinyl


This was suggested by Sonojfim on a previous thread. I wanted to send a petition to the vinyl companies because so many bad sounding new LP's on the market. A more positive way would be for all of us to share a few titles of really good sounding new and reissue LP's with label info if possible...

Here's some great new and available vinyl that I've been listening to over the past two weeks:

"Percussion Direct" from Groove Note (AGRN 1041) is very good.

"Little Johnny C" - Johnny Coles - Music Matters Blue Note reissue

The ongoing Beethoven symphony cycle by Kajski and the Polish Chamber Philharmonic Ordestra on the Tacet label continues to be very good. They now have out symphonies 1 & 2, 7, and 5.

The new ZZ Top reissue of "Tres Hombres" from Rhino via the mastering team of Hoffman and Gray.

Have you heard any of Vanska's Beethoven? These are not available on Vinyl, but the SACD's are very good...and the performances are even better. ..just my thoughts
No, I haven't heard the Vanska recordings. I'll have to see if someone in our local audio group has any of them. Thanks for the recommendation. I don't think the Rajski performances replace any of my long time favorites, but they are refreshing, clean performances in good sound (and on vinyl!).
SonofJim,

Where on Better Records' site do you find new vinyl? It seems Tom poo poos every new release and only promotes the old stuff.
Madfloyd,
Click on the first section, "All Vinyl". Scroll down and you'll find links to Recommended classical, rock, pop, and blues on heavy vinyl and even Audiophile recordings of special merit. You're right, he tends to hate most new vinyl but I find when he has anything at all good to say about a new release it proves to be one that's worth the trouble.
