What's the Best LP You Bought in 2008


For purposes of holiday "Wish List" building, with BOTH excellent music and excellent sonics as criteria, what is the best LP you've bought this year?

For me, it's Shelby Lynne - Just a Little Lovin'

Cheers,

City Of God,
Great movie, good sound track.

My favorite purchase this year was the Analogue Production Blue Note 45 rpm re-issue of Art Blakey & the Jazz Messengers- Moanin.
I have a well played Blue Note original I bought in the late 1970s.
I knew nothing of Art Blakey at that time while milling about in the Jazz section of a record store, I simply bought the Lp because of the looks of the front cover.

These 45 rpm Blue Note re-issues from Music Matters and Analogue Productions IMHO are "The" titles to collect and enjoy.
So far this year the LP that I keep going back to more than any other is the new Porcupine Tree, Fear of a Blank Planet. Their best album in over a decade.
Just bought new, unopened, Jarrett/Garbarek Belongings LP for $12 at a local vinyl shop. Same shop bough a new Return to Forever.

Freaking incredible vinyl, dead silent. I want to own every ECM LP ever.
