Jacob Collier is a slightly different genre than other suggestions, but listen to his first four albums and spend some time listening to his ballads or percussion-less tracks. I find them to be very pleasing. These aren’t live recordings, but he/they did a great job with whatever studio magic applied.
seeking recommendations for melodic , ear pleasing, and musical sounding LP's?
I have been having trouble finding LPs that sound musical
I listen to all kinds of music and am seeking harmonious and melodic tracks
The whole LP need not need have this, just a track of two is fine on a decent pressing that can still sound good on higher end resolving systems
As an example, the Eva Cassidy Songbird Album has this for me with a few tracks
thanks in advance

Aaron Neville - Warm Your Heart and Bring it on Home. Warm Your Heart covers everything from the sultry 'Feels Like Rain' to the divine 'Ave Maria' with stops in between. Absolute tour de force of his ability to sing almost any genre, and do it better than its ever been done. 'Bring It On Home' is more focused on th soul classics, and again he delivers definitive versions of each song. Both are beautifully recorded and have incredible guest performers, like Linda Ronstadt and Mavis Staples. Pat Matheny and Charlie Haden - Beyon the Missouri Sky. Incredible music, musicianship. And recording. Layers of detail musically and technically make this a joy are unveiled on repeated listenings. Keith Jarrett - The Koln Concerts His ability to to simply sit down and play improvisational piano has never been more on display than on these sides. Simply listen and let them carry you away. Enjoy! |
Van Morrison. I am not sure which ones would rank lower by your requirements but he is so freaking musical, if he read a police report, even that would be a catchy tune. This would be my top 10:
