I also need to get Sticky Fingers, Let it Bleed, Beggars' Banquet, and Exile on Main St. on CD

Save your money -- those great albums don't translate to CD very well, imo. .....takes the life right out of them.

Never heard of the two bands you mentioned, but I'll check iTunes to find some examples.

I've got the albums on vinyl, but no stereo to play them on. I usually don't like old albums on CD, but when the only other option is not hearing them again I'm stuck. I hated CDs when they first came out, and people thought I was making it up. Then I saw some articles about the same thing, and the scientific testing that showed that people responded better to vinyl.

Wilco is led by some former members of Uncle Tupelo, a central Illinois band that was instrumental in the alt-country movement in the 90s. Real instruments, and root-oriented music (country, blues, a little bluegrass, basic R&R, etc.) done in a slightly experimental vein. Good stuff, you ought to check them out.
