New favorite VINYL Album?

"NO BRTTER THEN THIS" the title says it all! John Mellencamp, with this album, he shows still has got it. I must also say that the mono recording is excellent, in your face. In fact it made me preoder the Dylan mono box set from amizon. The songs are great. An all accustic album, did not know he had it in hin, he does. The gate fold very nice, vinyl black and flat. ***** definte BUY! On another point saw gaslight anthem in NY at radio music. He/they were GREAT! THE REAL DEAL! The hall not so good for rock and roll but not a bad seat in the place.

Smoke Fairies - 'Through Low Light and Trees'
Menomena - 'Mines'
Leonard Cohen - 'Songs From The Road'
Jamey Johnson - 'The Guitar Song'

Anything old by CRACK THE SKY. Self-titled debut or Animal Notes. Great stuff from the mid-70's. Classic Crack is a nice compliation of their early works.

Chester and Lester, damn good guitar playing

J. Tillman - Singing Ax

Recorded by: Steve Albini
Mastered by: Bob Weston

^ inneresting company keeping - Tillman - is here in...

An audiophile listen, treat and experience.

I don't know what Albini's done but he's taken Tillman's minimalistic male vocals and guitar - supporting provocative confessions - to new heights going beyond the wonderful "Year in the Kingdom" LP.
