New Vinyl


Hi everyone, will you please list some new vinyl pressings that didnt make you wanna return it right away when you first played it. I have found a few:

Anything by Phil Collins has been done well and sounds good.
older box set of "the Song Remains the same" Led Zepp. Great sound. (Mothership sux)
Eric Clapton, everything on the shelf has been re done either 45/33 rpm's all great sounding. RTI pressings especially (duh).

MFSL ultra disc one step LPs (Santana, Bill Evans and Donald Fagen so far). About as good as vinyl is ever going to get IMHO. Just purchased Michell Legrand (Legrand Jazz) and two Van Morrison LPs (Astral Weeks and Moondance) from Music direct; all are excellent. Can't believe the Michel Legrand album is 60 years old. Music Direct are agents for MFSL and specialize in high end specialty pressings. I have just got back into vinyl (see my other post on Audiogon) after a 33 years absence and can't believe how the quality of vinyl, especially the +180g specialty pressings, has improved over the years.
I agree with "mofimadness"; Gillian Welch's "The Harrow & The Harvest" is simply amazing. But then again, when you read the story behind this recording/pressing, no surprise why. Attention to detail is way beyond normal, they even purchased and modified their own cutting lath to get the very best sound possible.
