I'm hoping for some ideas. Here are just a few I enjoyed.

Mumford & Sons – Babel
Alabama Shakes – Boys & Girls
The Avett Brothers – The Carpenter

This advances the argument for re-release on vinyl of great titles from the past few decades that were initially limited to CD.

Donjr-glad you dig Alabama Shakes-I look forward to futurelps for sure. Do you have any Mumford n Sons? True its more folk than rock, but upon a few listens I was hooked. I like the first lp best but both are very enjoyable to me. Perhaps give Sigh another listen? There were a tremendous number of rock reissues on vinyl that I bought too: Pumpkins, Beatles, Doors. All pretty good.

I noticed they just featured them on World Cafe. You can see them and Alabama Shakes at www.worldcafe.npr.org. The Shakes are interviewed and play four songs in the studio and its fantastic.
