first vinyl purchase for new tt

Radiohead,
Off the top of my head, the following Jazz line up is loaded with absolutely incredible musicians and fabulous music!
Just to name a few.
Oh yes ,and the recordings are all [ top shelf ] even with the reissues of today

Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers...Lp Moanin

CannonBall Adderley, with Sam and Hank Jones ,Miles Davis and Art Blakey....Lp Somethin Else

Nat Cole...Lp After Midnight

Duke Ellington and Ray Brown....Lp This Ones For Blanton

Ella Fitzgerald...Lp Clap Hands Here comes Charlie

All of the above and below mentioned are available as new reissues.

Rock & Roll

The Who...Lps Who's Next and Quadrophenia

Creeddence ClearWater...Lp Bayou Country 45 RPM

Yes...Lps Fragile and The Yes Album

The recordings on these Rock reissues are good at best, all have quiet surfaces.
For British Rock may I suggest hunt down a first or early release on a British lable,the Beatles,Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Super Tramp ect. Most will astound you for a Rock recording.
They do exist in near flawless condition.

Radiohead,
Money is tight at the moment you choosing a Technics S1121 record player.
Most of us have been there.

This is your very first turntable?

I have similar electronics,in concept, ASR Emitter and Exclusive phonostage.

There is a whole new world of music reporduction waiting for you.
The music I suggested, NONE of the cd sacd counter parts come close to the vinyl original first release including todays new reissues.

According to the music sections in Hi-Fi +, TAS and me.
I have heard direct comparisons with a reference player.
Don't get me wrong, I like cd sacd, thats the way it is.

Also there is nothing like owning a top shelf recording of your favorite artist.

Good luck.
