1. Miles Davis/ Decoy
2. Any Steely Dan Album
3. Chicago 7
4. Jeff Beck/ Blow by Blow
5. Yes/ Fragile

Dead Can Dance - Into the Labyrinth
Radiohead - most all of em
Dave Brubeck - Take Five
Roy Orbison - Greatest Hits
Mary Black - No Frontiers

I love Tears for Fears - Seeds of Love but I think Songs From the Big Chair sounds ALOT better.

Thanks. I love Jeff Beck's "Guitar Shop" but didn't know it was on vinyl.

Yet another record I need to buy.
