I'll jump in....

Aimee Mann "Lost in Space" MFSL has seen alot of spins.
Lucinda "Live at the Fillmore" is a great live recording with a "you are there" feel.
Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter "Reckless Burning" Dark, brooding and intense.
Monk and Coltrane "At Carnegie Hall" 200g Mosaic LP is very nice indeed.
Dylan "Concert at Philharmonic Hall" (Bootleg Series Vol 5) on Classic Records LP set is a great historical snapshot.
Cold Roses is good. Jacksonville Skyline disappointing. For me, his best is "Heartbreaker" on Cooking Vinyl/Bloodshot LP. Great duets with Emmy Lou Harris and Kim Richey. Produced by Ethan Johns and instrumental support from David Rawlings and Gillian Welch. A SUPER must have if you are a fan.
Lori McKenna "Bittertown"
Kasey Chambers "Wayward Angel"
Any (ALL??) of the 45rpm series jazz recordings from Acoustic Sounds but if I had to pick Art Pepper meets the Rythem Section is fantastic.
