I started a similar thread on the Asylum about six months ago. The question was, "What CDs need to be made into LPs"? Of course, extreme rarity counts, but the thread focused mainly on people's wish-lists for great music from the dark days of digital when LPs almost became extinct in favor of "perfect sound forever". Here's my little list from that thread:
Nusrat Fatah Ali Khan: everything he did on the Realworld label, aside from the first two which are on vinyl. I like a lot of stuff on this label, so let's see some of it!!
Richard Thompson: everything he did on Capital in the 90's - Rumor & Sigh, Mirror Blue, You Me Us.
Clutch: Elephant Riders, I grew up with hard rock and like this disc. It was mastered on a Tim de Paravicini modded Studer and recorded in analog. Properly pressed, it ought to be delightful.
kd lang: Ingénue, I know it was available in Europe, but it is really hard to find.
Sam Phillips: Martinis and Bikinis (1994) Great tunes.
Benny Green Trio: Testifyin! Live at the Village Vanguard (Blue Note 1992) killer performance, great recording.
The Jody Grind: Lefty's Deceiver -I like Kelly Hogan's voice, and the tunes are sublime.
Soundtrack: Twin Peaks, Fire Walk With Me, Angelo Badalamenti's soundtrack for the film features guest vox from Jimmy Scott and Julie Cruise; moody and ethereal sounding. The film itself is forgettable (unlike the TV series).
