Thank you for your kind advices.

One of the best popular vinyl recordings I've heard, if you can find a
copy, is
Eric Clapton's "Unplugged". This was originally issued on German vinyl
and sounds great.

I heard this one. I'm not a great Clapton's fan but I must recognize that
this recording sounds very good, this guitar "gently weeps"... ;-)

Now let me please recommend you THE cd which has "definitively" ;-)
converted me to digital music :

Tom Waits : "Big time".

I understand that it could be an "unfair" choice. )

In general, I prefer acoustic recordings to electric recordings. I also have a
fairly strong affinity for classical music, which may help- to explain my
preference for tubes and electrostatics .

I have to confess that I'm not familiar with his music. Do you like the CD
because of the performance, the outstanding recording quality, or both?
