Thanks to everybody who has responded so far.
I would have liked to have had more space in the title to make it clear that I am not really looking for opinions on equipment, just for one or more jazz records capable of sounding excellent on vinyl.
I hope to make my own mind up later on the question of digital or vinyl after listening!
It is really interesting to me that some vinyl versions of "Kind of Blue" had some tracks recorded at the wrong speed - apparently fixed on the CD I bought and the A$145 original master recording vinyl (which seems to have been remastered on to DSD-64 before becoming "original" again.
Please keep those suggestions coming ...
