New To Vinyl... Seeking Recomendations


good day,

i am brand new to vinyl, having just received my first turntable - Original Oracle Delphi, Papier Triplanar tonearm, Talisman Virtuoso cartridge.

I've done a considerable amount of reading on how best to care for records and think i have a handle on that, and now was hoping to get a few recommendations on recordings that REALLY show off the virtues of viyl.

After some browsing around the 'best of' threads here, there seems to be some often recommended albums, such as:

Louis Armstromg St. James Infirmary, Classic Records, 45 rpm
Jazz At The Pawnshop (i have this cd and LOVE it, so am looking forward to hearing it on vinyl)
Allison Krauss and Union Station Live (again, another of my favorite CDs)

Any other suggestions would be appreciated... the goal is to queue up a few great records and be able to demonstrate to my wife why all this extra gear is now finding a home in our living room!

many thanks,
Scott
