Extraordinary recordings on vinyl


You've most likely heard or read of MF's +10 (on his 1-10) scale of rating music, both sonically and for content...

What are your favorite recordings (on vinyl) that tip the scale over 10?

Here's my first one... Steve Phillips "Steel-Rail Blues"

This lp is pure as the driven snow, not an unpure note to be found.

three that are 10+ to my ears....

'Come Friday', The Chris Barber Band, Jeton DTD Lp, 100.3306
'St. Louis Blues' on side 2 is epic. Germans recording Brits playing Dixieland......but it soars.

'Verite Du Clavecin', Sarastro 7701, 45rpm. wonderful harpsichord music. Sarastro is a late 70's French label of classical music all on 45rpm......all wonderfully recorded and great sounding. mostly small scale intimate music. there are 28 titles (one is a double album), I have them all and every one is excellent.

"Bela Bartok, Les Six Quatuors", Quatuor Vegh, Valois CMB 23, 3 Lp Box Set. there are reissues on other labels that are quite good, but this is the set to have.
