Slaw-
I gotta check out Calexico. Ive been hearing alot about them lately, and saw them on...Jimmy Falon, I think...sounded great. Any suggestions what lp to start with?
Thanks for the recs on Calexico.

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.
