Great sounding/recorded albums

I'm tired of all the electronic fake drums and other music I'm hearing on so many albums. 

What are some excellently recorded albums/songs that actually sound like the instruments you're hearing and not a synth?

I am 2 channel only right now and primarily listen through Tidal.

As good as any Steely Dan album is The Nightfly by Donald Fagen.

+1  Yeah, baby!

Depends on whom you're trying to impress, after all. Impressing a non-audiophile doesn't take much ;-) . Give 'em a buncha bass at concert-level SPL and they'll cream their jeans.

Check out the Reference Recording label. Great recordings in multiple genres and great for demonstrating any system.
