I'm on a big Leadbelly kick at the moment so I'll say that one.

Coltrane does a few of my favorite things... and, accordingly, has been in my library for probably a decade. The Clash was actually my wife's, and owned for about as long. I love the Gipsy Kings, but enjoy their music more in summer, the last of which was when I bought that album. Like Blacula, I, too, am on a big Ledbelly kick (so much so that two months ago I took a pretty cool road trip ), but I've owned his "best of" for at least a couple years. So, which was the recent purchase: <strike>1. Best of Leadbelly</strike> 2. Elton John - Greatest Hits 1970-2002 3. Experience Hendrix - The Best of Jimi Hendrix 4. International - The Best of New Order 5. Lennon Legend - The Very Best of John Lennon 6. Nina Simone - Gold 7. Ring of Fire: The Legend of Johnny Cash 8. Steve Miller Band - Greatest Hits 1974-1978 9. The Animals - Retrospective <strike>10. The Best of the Gipsy Kings</strike> <strike>11. The Essential Clash</strike> 12. The Smiths - Singles 13. The Very Best of Cream <strike>14. The Very Best of John Coltrane</strike> 15. Woody Guthrie - Folkways

Both my Hendix and Johnny Cash albums weren't so much "purchased" as... um... "obtained" in an iPod swap with a buddy at work last year.
Steve Miller's Greatest Hits, by contrast, is something that I've owned since I was 14, first on vinyl, then tape, then CD, and was one of the first albums I ever imported into iTunes, so, not the most recent.
Which was?
<strike>1. Best of Leadbelly</strike>
2. Elton John - Greatest Hits 1970-2002
<strike>3. Experience Hendrix - The Best of Jimi Hendrix</strike>
4. International - The Best of New Order
5. Lennon Legend - The Very Best of John Lennon
6. Nina Simone - Gold
<strike>7. Ring of Fire: The Legend of Johnny Cash</strike>
<strike>8. Steve Miller Band - Greatest Hits 1974-1978</strike>
9. The Animals - Retrospective
<strike>10. The Best of the Gipsy Kings</strike>
<strike>11. The Essential Clash</strike>
12. The Smiths - Singles
13. The Very Best of Cream
<strike>14. The Very Best of John Coltrane</strike>
15. Woody Guthrie - Folkways

Well, when one's lost, I suppose it's good advice to stay where you are until someone finds you. But who'd ever think to look for me here?

Great photo Exnihil!
If someone else hasn't already guessed the correct answer I'll say a band that I discovered very late but am now in love with -
12. The Smiths - Singles

Cream and John Lennon both fall into the Steve Miller category of initial CD to iTunes uploads.
The Smiths was purchased last year in a wave of late '80's nostalgia.
Woody Guthrie - probably a year and a half ago in a folksy mood.
Nina Simone is my favorite artist. I only her discovered about three years ago, and promptly bought her Greatest Hits at that time, not realizing I would like her so much that I'd actually wind up buying several other albums, making the "Gold" album superfluous.
But... my above passion for Nina Simone does tie into my most recent purchase, as both "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" and "House of the Rising Sun" were hits for her, and later covered by the band whose Greatest Hits I just bought...
The Animals.
Well done, Disdemona. The next round is yours.
