Ben Sollee "Half Made Man" ….a surprisingly good sounding lp w/ great dynamics. I'd forgotten how great this lp is. Highly recommended!

He was just down the road from me performing a little over a year ago and I did not go...…. kicking myself...………...
The Joe Walsh...…...a great sounding lp!

David Bowie "Black Star"
For once, regarding Low, my personal history is with their earlier lps going forward. In this sense, I agree that their earlier lps (Destroyer) are more to my liking and I assume easier for the uninformed to begin their journey.
Alejandro Escovedo "Big Station"
Joe Walsh "The Smoker You Get...The Player You Drink" OP
@tomic601 ,

If you have a concern about the cantilever on one lp, just play a different/familiar lp to judge.

@6t5-gto,

You previously wrote "sounds like a bootleg". 

I disagree. I think these kind of subjective differences of opinions are a result of one's own audio system/room. I love how this lp sounds in my space.
Magnolia Electric Co. "Trials & Errors"

Lps bought from Insound aren't any different in terms of SQ than from any other vendor
@6t5-gto, 

Re-listened to Son Volt "Live @ The Bottom Line". I need to rephrase my earlier comments. I take it for what it is, a live recording made at a club. I realize it's not going to be perfect from the outset. Picking it apart, I think it's recorded too hot but when I find the right volume level it's sound is enjoyable.
Bob Dylan "Desire"  one of the better deals I've had at record shows, $5.00/OP/clean.
The Fixx "Phantoms" my copy is a RCA music club issue.

Nice SQ, I always loved this lp. Not much love for this band anywhere.
I think I posted years ago that The Doobie Brothers have such a consistent analog recording quality across their catalog. Highly enjoyable!
@boxer12,

I love Cake....No vinyl though..

I urge any of you who value a female voice to check out Squirrel Flower.
@tomic601 

Thanks for the Jesse Sykes. I've been auditioning and will order a couple.
@6t5-gto 

I meant to thank you for your post above.

Paul Simon "Graceland"  25th Anniversary/RSD 

Welcome @motoraway  

I've liked Galaxie 500 when I auditioned them, just never got around to buying.

Chuck Berry "Chuck"
Beth Hart "Live at The Royal Albert Hall" my replacement copy

Father John Misty "Pure Comedy"

It's really sounding great. I believe the first time I heard it was when I first bought my VPI which had issues then.
The Beth Hart lp is one of the absolute best sounding live lps I’ve experienced in my system.
