Might be Tom Waits' Bone Machine or it might be Marvin Gaye's What's Goin' On or Donny Hathaway's self-titled LP or Sinatra's Songs For Swinging Lovers....my list of favorite record of all time is long.

Paul Desmond and Ed Bickert, "Live at Bourbon Street"
Not the CD, but the double LP. Two different sessions.
The double LP was never issued on CD. Such a shame.

Ryan Adams "Gold" and Neil Young "After the Gold Rush" would be my two favorites.

One candidate would be Dave Mason & Cass Elliot from '71.
Why? Because their voices sound so good together.

| Well, if we go by how many times I've played an album and bought the album for someone else as a gift, there is only one record: Kind of Blue. Miles Davis. |

If I could only own one record for the rest of my life, I'd pick Steely Dan's Aja.

Stephen Stills' Mannasas double LP would be my choice. Al Perkins perked my ears up quite sometime ago. My second choice would have to be Abbey Road.

Gordon Lightfoot's 'Sit Down Young Stranger', recorded in 1970. It was his first gold record and the hit song off it is 'If You Could Read My Mind'. 'Poor Little Allison' is the only song with steel on it.

Like everyone, I find this a hard game to play. I agree with some of the choices already offered, but here are three new ones, all old enough that I know I still enjoy listening to them 20 - 50 years after they were released:
Crosby, Stills, and Nash (the original album. I was 12 when this was released, and not much older when I started listening to it. Great tunes that I still love to listen to):
The Bonnie Rait Collection (a double album of her music from the first 15 years. My brother brought home Bonnie's second album when I was maybe 15 and I fell in love with her bottle-neck blues. Hard to pick from her string of excellent albums that followed this one, so the Collection covers all of her best from this period):
Will The Circle Be Unbroken (This album got me listening to musicians whose genre did not include "/rock" in it: Doc Watson, Earle Scruggs, et. al. Truly a classic that deserves mentioning):
So, those would at least make my short list. Jazz, Afro-pop, Axe, and other musical interests came later, and would be another whole list!

Buddy Emmons sings Bob Wills for the stellar arrangements and cast of musicians. Curly Chalker, More Ways To Play. Pete Drake, any of his non-talking steel albums. Johnny Gimble's Texas Dance Party.

just another snide attempt at humor from Mr. Ivey  If you really want to know, here's the Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akashic_records. As you can see, it's totally off topic. We will say no more about this. 
Greg Cutshaw - I have always enjoyed both of those LPs. Some fine western swing there. Good choices.

A friend of mine gave me Buddy Emmons sings Bob Wills.
I thanked him, of course, but secretly sneered. Cripes another guitar player who thinks he can sing. Ever hear Lenny Breau sing?
What a surprise. It's really very, very good.
Shows to go ya. don't surmise.
