Last year's thread (and links to previous years) can be found here;
1st run, like it ...


On limited edition orange vinyl...
A perennial favourite. CD rip : WAV

This was recommended to me by Lontano, and very good it is too.


Having heard one track on 6 Music's Freakier Zone a few weeks ago before the album was released...streaming via Qobuz

Thank you for reminding me to dig my copy out and play it. Brilliant album.
Rush, Signals, an album I hated when it came out that I now love and appreciate as a classic. 24 bit Flac via Audirvana/Hugo

Allen Toussaint "Southern Nights" - 2016 Stereophile R2D4


Pink Floyd "Wish You Were Here" - 2016 Stereophile R2D4


On vinyl.

John Lennon. Imagine (1971). On remastered CD from 2000. Some 45 years later "How Do You Sleep?" still sounds so scathing. I wonder if Paul could bear to listen to it even today.

Great album which featurs the original version of Young Man Blues feat on The Who Live at Leeds.

You are on a roll Jeff another brilliant album.
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. Playback.
On six HDCDs from 1995. Highly recommended for any Petty fan. Easily found for $20 s/h, the VFM is off the charts.
