Out of all the recent LPs I purchased, two stand out as stunning:
Jacintha, "Here's to Ben" - I think it cost me $25 sealed, but a stunning audiophile piece.
Other LP is Stravinsky's "Firebird Suite" - Dorati is the conductor - an old CBS label (kind of like RCA Living Stereo). I managed to get a sealed copy for $50 from Classic Music or some such website. NM copies go for more than $80 on eBay. I can see why though. Talk about dead quiet passages - wow.
I agree with a previous posted on Simply Vinyl recordings - very good stuff. The Dire Straits, Brothers in Arms recording is spectacular. The Money for Nothing track is one of my demo/ impress your friends tracks.
Also worth checking out the two LPs by Theiveiry Corporation - (kind of like Massive Attack or Morcheeba). The quality is stunning - both LPs include 4LPs each, with all songs at 45RM - it's not an afterthought vinyl recording - it's a really good effort to show what vinyl can do.
