This sounds good for a late summer Sunday - Vinyl
CD2 FLAC Rip.
Would qualify as a 'Best sounding live album' in the thread of that name.

Another one for 'Best sounding live albums' - probably the best live recording I've heard.

Very enjoyable
Ed Sheeran "X"
The first time listening to Hamelin's Chopin.

A long-time favourite. I remember the first time I heard Sabbath when this came out. The first track of this album just blew me away. It was also the first Veritgo label album I had seen and somehow the illusion created by the label spinning on the turntable seemed to add to haunting atmosphere created by this album.
Don't get that on CD of course but the music still sets the hairs prickling.

Must get this album. It's been on my to-buy list for ages. Ought to pull my finger out really
Roseanne Cash "10 Song Demo"
highly recommended, simple production, acoustic guitar and piano
mostly, accompanied by John Leventhal.
Continue ing withHorowitz
Bought this CD a few weeks ago on the basis of others on here likening Evanscence to We Are The Fallen. Have only just got around to unwrapping it for my first play. Early impressions are favourable. Just as well the neighbours are out!
...
Shelby Lynne "Revelation Road" (deluxe edition)
You get lost (at least I do) in this of melange of 21 composers.

If you haven't bought or tried this one, you should give it a go MDS. Many people, including myself, think that it's their best album and also happens to sound most like We Are The Fallen (WATF). It comprises most of Evanescence after they broke up and reformed to become WATF. Taking their name from this Evanescence album "The Fallen", it's very good and as close to the WATF sound as I have been able to find.

Lou Reed "New York"
Sharon Van Etten "Are We There"
French composer/French pianist/French conductor.
Cluyten's classy magical orchestration with bold playful Francois' piano makes *famous* Michelangelli/Gracis set pondering and stogy. This is way more intense and brash than anything I've heard.
