@Slaw, thanks for the Glen Hansard 'Between Two Shores' recommendation. Here's 2 new ones for you...Ashley McBryde 'Girl Going Nowhere' & Boz Scaggs 'Out of the Blues'. 
Thanks @ dhawks3001,

I’ll check those out! I own several BS lps, just not that one.

If you don't own these BS lps, you should check them out...

Boz Scaggs "S/T"
Boz Scaggs and Band "S/T"

………………………

Up last for today...

Neko Case "Blacklisted"

Cheers
@slaw 
Both classic Boz Scaggs albums. Boz Scaggs S/T really grabbed me, and, in particular, the song "Loan Me a Dime" started a lifelong quest to discover/uncover blues from past decades. This search quickly expanded to include jazz, ragtime & bluegrass, to mention just a few. So you might say that Boz Scaggs was very responsible for expanding my musical horizons and depleting my pocketbook.

@dhawks3001, "Loan Me A Dime" is a KILLER song! Boz’s debut album is pretty good, but "LMAD" is great, good enough to justify the purchase of the album. I saw/heard Boz first as the rhythm guitarist (playing a Gibson ES 335, and doing no singing) in The Steve Miller Blues Band (Steve’s original moniker), at a live show in ’67. Boz has proven to be "better" than Steve, at least imo.
Just picked up a box of records from a reformed clutter bug trying to get rid of his collection to make space.  Fished out a stereo pressing of Irma Thomas “Wish Someone Would Care”.  Cleaning it up and about to put it on.  If I have time, Thelonius Monk “Solo Monk” is next.  
Miles Davis - Someday My Prince Will Come - AP 33 200g - excellent 
Sigur Ros - Agaetis Byrjum - such an incredible record, hard to believe their first full release was A.) so great and B.) so incredibly well recorded. It is a really great sounding record. One of my all time fav bands 
Two by Patricia Barber:

Cafe Blue for her high notes in "Too Rich for My Blood."

Live: A Fortnight in France for the lush instrumental "Witchcraft."
@dhawks3001,

I remembered after my post that I had recently auditioned some of "Out of These Blues" a couple weeks ago and wasn't moved enough to buy. That's not to say I would not like it if I heard it in my system. Boz has a surprisingly large catalog. I did really like Ashley and put that one in my Wish List. Thanks.
…………………………………………………………….

Flaming Lips "At War With the Mystics"
I’m really, really behind in cleaning/listening to new (to me) music. Guess what, UPS just arrived...Yey!

………………………………………
Led Zeppelin "How The West Was Won" (LP 1)
.sounded so good, I put on Lp 2

Up next....Michael Nesmith & The First National Band Redux Live at the Troubadour" (2018)
To dismiss Michael Nesmith would leave you out of a very good time! The SQ on this dbl/lp is very, very good.

Neil Young "Silver & Gold" OP/Germany
Alejandro Escovedo  "Big Station"
Heart-Dreamboat Annie  couldn't resist this evening..
...Heading out this morning
   Into the sun
   Riding on the diamond waves, little darlin' one
   Warm wind caress her, her lover it seems
   Oh Annie, Dreamboat Annie, my little ship of dreams...
Death Cab For Cutie "Thank You For Today".

I’ve been looking forward to hearing this lp since it’s announcement. Playing track one now, it is sounding very good!

So far..it is exceeding my expectations. I love it when that happens!
Bryan Ferry / Avonmore
Slaw,
That is one of my favorites. Very well recorded too. 
Slaw,
No, I was referring to Uncle Tupelo from March 1992. Re-reading my post, I can see why you ask though.
---------------------------------------------
Thurston Moore / Demolished Thoughts
Son Volt "On Chant And Strum" (had to listen again, great lp!)
Bob Dylan "In Concert/Brandeis University 1963"
Neil Young "Harvest Moon" ...the latest dbl/lp. I own the OP/UK, it’ll be interesting to hear if there is any significant difference. The last time I heard my OP, I felt like it was somewhat thin or bright and edgy. 

I've heard the first 3 tracks now on the latest pressing and the air, the space is pretty remarkable. I'm getting no sense of the negative attributes of my OP.
One more thought...I own a lot of good sounding records. Every once in a while I take notice when there is something extra special going on... Listening to the latest lp pressing of "Harvest Moon" strikes me this way. There just seems to be a perfect balance to this superbly recorded lp. Highly recommended!
Michael Nesmith "Pretty Much Your Standard Ranch Stash"   OP/M
Buddy Holly & The Crickets ""S/T"    Jap/mono/30th Anniversary
