Kind of Blue........blue vinyl........
My experience with colored vinyl is it has alot of surface noise. Collectors know this,I doubt you will get a profit on it,at least not from a collector. 
Allman Brothers Fillmore East on Vinyl
This record to me has a horror story. I purchased three copies from THE WHERHOUSE when it first came out back in the day. The reason was because on side three it skipped in three different spots. I kept returning them until the third one didn't sk... 
An Audiogon based system
Same here i bought a Modwright Sony CD player and all my Cardas inter connects and power cables and The anti-cable speaker cables here. I did buy my Tice Power Block's locally to save on shipping though. I'm so thankful I stumbled onto this websit... 
Freak Me Out
Check out a Cd that was voted best Progressive Rock Cd the year it came out "A Place in the Queue" by The Tangent. Very ecletic with music ranging from cocktail jazz to synthesizer infused rock. 
Analysis Plus Oval 9 & Vandersteen 3As
I too am using the anti cables with a pair of vandy 3A sigs. IMS they really were worth the price and much more. I'm using Cardas Golden Reference inter connects and Cardas Golden Reference Power Chords with all my associated equipment though. 
Jazz guys: Bebop, Hard Bop etc.
Foster 9,Check out some Bobby Hutcherson. His offerings ALWAYS have the big name jazz Artists as guests from Freddie Hubbard to Herbie Hancock. It's very soothing jazz,something about the vibes that strikes a chord with me.

Jazz trombone anyone?
Granchon Moncur III Evolution Cd is one of my all time faves. Mosiac records has a 3 CD set with all his Blue Note recordings(Evolution is included) plus it has two CD's by Jackie McClean(One Step Beyond and Destination Out) which in my opinion is...

Audioquest recordings.......
If you like the Blues Robert Lucas will not disapoint you. I have all of his recordings on CD and even some of the newer Canned Heat CD's where Robert is now a member and handles the vocals. Good stuff. 
Looking for compilation suggestions
If you liked 49th Parallel then try 21st Century Blues a collection of anti war songs by various artists covered by The Cowboy Junkies. It has that same slow durge that 49th has.
