The TOP 100 audiophile records you must own... right now! Those special LP's where music, recording, mastering, pressing and packaging all come together to give you the ultimate music lover, audiophile and collector experience, thoroughly and expertly selected by Vinyl Gourmet!

On this page I will list and when possible provide in-depth reviews about the best 100 audiophile vinyl LP's and the best music available on vinyl. It's not an all time best LP records list but rather something you can use to make sure you are listening the best sounding new LP's that you can add to your Vinyl Collection today! These are all available in the market now or have been in very recent years. 

 *Note: The position on the list has no special meaning, number 011 is not necessarily better than number 067, etc... 

Work always in progress...
