Rodney Crowell, The Houston Kid, 2001 on Sugar Hill Records
Released on CD in 2001 but issued on vinyl for the first time in 2024, this was Crowell’s tenth full length album. Johnny Cash (Crowell’s former father-in-law) is featured on “I Walk The Line (Revisited).”
It’s a bit of an autobiographical concept album as Tony Scherman lays out in “Great Songwriter Mines His Past” – but you don’t have to know any of that to get it as a wonderful collection of songs.
My copy is the 2024 VMP reissue on “sepia marble” vinyl, pressed at GZ Media and cut by Barry Grint. (I think it’s still the only vinyl edition).

Townes Van Zandt, At My Window, 1987 on Sugar Hill
Van Zandt’s eighth studio album and only one recorded in the 1980s, originally released on the bluegrass label Sugar Hill. I never miss a chance to pick up a Townes Van Zandt record in good shape.
Recorded at Jack Clement’s studio in Nashville (“Cowboy Arms Hotel and Recording Spa”) and produced by Clement and Jim Rooney. Great versions of “For the Sake of the Song” and “Gone, Gone Blues” and the title track.
My copy – via Pitchford Records in Concord NH – is the 2022 Craft reissue for Record Store Day 2022 on blue vinyl.

"I admit I had no idea who #MalcolmX was when I first heard it. I was 10 or 11, and it played a few times on college radio, which I was only just starting to tune into, but for which so much of the messaging in the music was alien."
This track by #KeithLeBlanc was probably the first solo track of his I ever heard, and it still is as listenable as it was in the mid 80s:
