What's the Best LP You Bought in 2008


For purposes of holiday "Wish List" building, with BOTH excellent music and excellent sonics as criteria, what is the best LP you've bought this year?

For me, it's Shelby Lynne - Just a Little Lovin'

Cheers,

It's not new this year but I recently bought the German import of Clapton Unplugged and would highly recommend it. Also the new release of Miles Davis 'Round About Midnight is well done(Speakers Corner I believe).
new album releases from these bands in no particular order; drive by truckers, wilco, lucinda williams, the pretenders, the virgins, spoon, loose fur, the new pornographers, vampire weekend, tv on the radio, the hold steady, the black crows, ryan adams, beck, alejandro escovedo, little joy, flaming lips, parts & labor, jolie holland, springsteen(magic), john fogerty, conor oberst, weezer, white stripes, neil young, amy winehouse, radioheads, kings of leon, the ting ting, etc. these are many of my favorite new releases and not used originals i purchased and not the re-releases that i liked. like traviling wilburys, nick lowe among others. the list of used original another time.
Dear Stringreen: If you liked Dido maybe you will like: Beth Orton " Central Reservation ".

Regrads and enjoy the music.
