Best SACD's

Any of the Moody Blues.

I’ll second that.
So glad I got the entire set, much better than my MoFi gold versions. But, they’re nothing I’d whip out for a demo at a show.

A lot of the usual suspects here, I’ll add some more:

• Talk Talk, Colour of Spring
  
• Talk Talk, Spirit of Eden (these are both spectacular IMO)
• Goldfrapp, Supernature

And not yet mentioned in the Mofi catalog:

• Alan Parsons Project, I Robot
• Supertramp, Breakfast in America
• The Cars, The Cars
• Charles Mingus, Ah Um

Lots of great suggestions above!

Here are some lesser-known audiophile SACD surprisers if you have an above average DSD DAC and a decent surround setup—

Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Raise Your Spirit Higher. Won a Grammy 2004. Stunning clarity. Track 1 as best demo ever. Voice only so no one can make judgement or get hung up by the message/lyrics of the song...  

Dolly Parton Little Sparrow. Biggest Surpriser if them all. Wide open, pure DSD from mics to your DAC. Tracks 12&13 as demos in that order. Solid state for 12;  tubes for 13.

Stevie Ray Vaughn Couldn’t Stand  The Weather. Even though stereo only disc w analog transfer, this is a masterpiece of analog engineering. Track 6 Tin Pan Alley as demo. Best Fender Strat guitar soloing you’ll ever hear. Seriously, EVER. 
Steely Dan Gaucho. Babylon Sister track 1... Trade show and test track for decades (AES/Cedia, etc.) Same with track 1 Gaslighting Abby from Two Against Nature. Required tracks for 99% of all pro engineers tool kit... stage or studio! 

Wish You Were Here Pink Floyd. James Guthrie outdid himself on this one. Just insane sonics on Welcome to the Machine. If you have a well-balanced correctly setup surround system and have the ability to crank this one up, turn off the lights and be ready for an absolutely incredible, epic experience. Everything is stunning on this SACD except the drums which in my opinion are marginal and the only instrument that dates this recording.

2nd- your SACD selections.  Happy Listening!

jafant thanks for the nod. Funny, it was your post that inspired me to write mine!

Correction for my post: The insanely fantastic Dolly Parton tracks are 13 and 14– not 12 and 13.

For those scratching your head (Dolly Parton? Really?) I admit it sounds crazy... BUT... This is not your radio-hit or country-twang Dolly on these two tracks... rather, they’re a couple of hidden DSD treasures featuring Allison Krauss’ (often) guest dobro player Jerry Douglas and a crack engineering team reaching for sonic perfection. It was created in the hey-day of DSD engineering and development of the Sony’s state of the art Sonoma multi-track studio system. If you have tubes or planars you’ll be pressed to find a better sounding set of pure DSD test tracks for image, surround, voice and string (violin close-mic and acoustic guitar dynamics).

Footnote... I was not really a big fan of Dolly or her recordings until I heard these tracks. They changed everything.

+1 on the Dolly SACD. One of my go to's after playing AKUS or O'Brother. Similar feel and sound. Very Americana vs. Country.
