Best Record You Have Ever heard


Thought I would start this thread for all you vinyl lovers out there.

The rules are simple:
1. Only post one album, the absolute best you have heard.
2. It must be something you have heard on VINYL.
3. Both the recording AND musical content must be impeccable
and I do mean BOTH!
4. Try to be as specific as possible i.e/ version, year, re-issue, original, 45RM,direct to disc, half speed mastered etc...

Here is mine.

Artist: John Frusciante
Album: Curtains
Release: Record COllection

bluewolf,

I agree; Very good choice. May I suggest the 45rpm MFSL pressing.

 I am still trying to find out if the AFI Flat is compatible with USA electric and if it will be made available in the future. Still very interested in both flattening and RELAX function .
Muddy Waters Folk Singer. Original release. 
As real an acoustic environment wihh human voices, real musical instruments that I have ever heard in a recording.
Uncanny.
To many to name EMI and Decca records also Muddy waters Folk Singer i have Original as well wonderful records. 

I'll pick one of my favorites, which I don't believe has yet been mentioned.


Maria Muldair, Richland Woman Blues, Grooveland.  It's wonderful music and an incredible sounding record.
