What are we buying these days?...

Hi everyone...first post :-)

My latest favorites:

Rosanne Cash: River of the Thread
The National: Trouble will find Me
Gregory Porter: Liquid Spirit
Pat Methany: Kin

All of these are fine albums and wonderfully recorded with the Pat Methany being an exceptional recording.
 
I mentioned the National earlier, if you like trouble will find me, try High Violet if you haven't already.  One of my favorite albums of all time.
 
Aoife O'Donovan (new to me) her Fossils album looks good anybody like to rec any others of hers I should take a look at Dave Douglas Quintet, Crooked still?
 
Received my Ryan Adams Love Is Hell album by Mobile Fidelity.  3 LPs and absolutely gorgeous.  I have only listened to one side, but it sounded wonderful.
 
I have two new albums this week. Beck: Morning Phase and Pat Methany: Kin. They are both outstanding and beautifully recorded.
 
Well one CD - Vaya Con Dios - "The Best of Vaya Con Dios"  old CD but great female vocals in Dani Klein.  Second is an LP, Legend the Best of Bob Marley and the Wailers. Listening to this last album makes me realize just how great his music is.  Too bad we lost him.

+ 1 Dani Klein & Vaya Con Dios  your post is most probably the first time I have seen them mentioned on a bb for a very long time. Will have to dig my albums out again.

 
Funny enough I was re-loading my Alison Krauss + union station live to my tunes server today and discovered it was a two cd set duh! Its only taken four months to discover this as once ripped to lossless the cd gets put away.
And who is playing on the first track but Jerry Douglas I only realise the other day that he features on the Mumford & Sons Bable cd on the Boxer track. Without knowing it I now have a number of tracks which Jerry is guesting on.
 
The the - Dusk.  Last time I spend big bucks on an OP issue listed as VG+ from the 90s.  I have done this a couple of times, and gotten screwed 100% of the time.  Their idea of VG+ and my idea seem to be two very separate concepts.  And shipping it back to Europe makes it a rather large loss, so I guess I am stuck with it.  The more I listen to CDs...  Well, lets not start a CD vs vinyl discussion, we'll save that for the forums where people like to fight.  Needless to say, it is very disappointing.
 
Paully, I'm finding more pleasure from CD's than I care to comment on. Reading your post made me smile though I feel for your situation.  I really wish BH would get that DAC to market :)
 
I am unreasonably obsessed with vinyl and sometimes I think the sellers must know that. 

Maybe one day I will wake up.  Don't count on it though.  Old issues which are overgraded and new issues cut from a CD file and yet I continue to buy.  I don't know...  Anyway, like I said, this conversation has the potential to degrade rapidly.  I will try to restrain myself.  I just love those big shiny discs.  I CANT STOP!

Ironically the Smiths song playing right now has a lyric "stop me if you have heard this one before".
