If you wanted to impress someone, which track?

Let's say a bunch of your friends are at your house, and they want to hear your "audiophile" system.

If you could only play one track, which would it be?

Not audiophile and panpotted to within an inch of its life, but a pretty "showy" recording that usually gets the desired response. 05-27-10: Martykl Glad to see you mention the theme to the "Shaft" movie soundtrack. It is arguably some of the best music ever recorded for a soundtrack. (timeless) I recommend it highly to those of you who are not familar with it.

It is on this: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000KP62UM/3dgazo391-20 Lots of classics to recommend on this recent and nicely mastered release! Not just "Theme From Shaft" but "Son Of Shaft" to boot!

That doesn't happen very often! It did sound VERY good!
