Which artists' music do you buy without audition


We all have our favorite artists and often have large collections of music by them. Name some who when a new cd or vinyl comes out you will buy without hesitation, audition or others' opinions.

Emmylou Harris is one of those for me.

Hello Martykl, thanks for the suggestions.

Do you own the two solo E records ("A Man called E" and "Broken Toy Shop")? I believe that they are among the most perfectly realized pop albums I own. I also thought "Blinking Lights" was-by a very long measure- the best pop/rock release I heard last year

I do not own the two E records you mention but will start looking for them today.

I've been searching various Euro web sites for the LP version of "Blinking lights," but have had no luck so far. I purchased all the Eels works on LP but the first few titles are getting difficult to find. I have not seen any sell at Ebay for less than $100.00 once shipping is added. All offered seem to be in Japan.

Bander, who originated this thread mentioned Emmylou Harris. I love her too but was particularly obsessed with locating "Wrecking Ball" on LP. Daniel Lanois was her partner on this album and I am a huge fan of his. The copy I finally found was in the hands of the president of the Emmylou Harris fan club. That signed copy set me back $225.00 but well worth it.

I'm a bit reckless when it comes to software, I'm slow to swap hardware :^).
Probably not many Bjork fans at Audiogon but for those that are, the new 45 RPM vinyl DMM masters from GB are reported to be her best sound ever.

I searched the usual music vendors, most selling at retail $45.00 each and already sold out of many of the titles.

Then I noticed a link to One Little Indian USA who have the entire Bjork British DMM library at a 25% discount, no tax and a good ship rate.
