What's the Best LP You Bought in 2008


For purposes of holiday "Wish List" building, with BOTH excellent music and excellent sonics as criteria, what is the best LP you've bought this year?

For me, it's Shelby Lynne - Just a Little Lovin'

Cheers,

Shelby Lynne,Hugh Maskela and Jennifer Warnes...two of my best lps for 2008 - Muddy Waters "Folk Singer" and Buddy Guy, Junior Wells "Drinkin TNT and Smokin Dynamite". It also features Bill Wyman and real guitar magic.
Cheers
Raul,
Tsai Chin is a "gOLDen" girl. Another singer you might want to have a listen to is Teresa Teng. Some of her earlier pressings go for hundreds of dollars on ebay. She has passed on ... :(

Lou Reed/ John Cale : Songs for Drella reissue from orig mastertapes 180 Gm vinyl just puts my skin out of there... beautiful...
Jack Johnson, all four of his albums after hearing him on Pandora radio. One of the albums is noisey though, kind of disappointing.

Cat Power You Are Free is also very good, but this is the other new album that I bought that was noisey.
