Wow an old album that rocked your world

I know this is a Hifi forum but isn’t it about the music as well. Has anyone recently played a
Vinyl, disc or whatever you are into. One that you forgot was so good and totally was blown away by the music and the recording? If so share it with us. Mine was Mahavishnu orchestra Birds of Fire. Have not listened to that for some time. Wow. FORGOT HOW GOOD THAT WAS. 
This is what Hifi is all about IMO.

@roxy54 ~ Agree both are indeed "timeless" and have left a deep musical impression. Still have both albums from '67 and the MFSL 45rpm mono. Been hoping MFSL would release the Dead album, but so far no luck.

Just fired up another oldie .

Let It Roll by Little Feat.
Man this sounds so good both musically and sonically.

Roxy Music - Avalon!

Agreed. Somehow missed this one entirely when it was new. First heard Avalon only about a half a dozen years ago. Even then it was just on iPod. Now on euro vinyl on my system it is just mind-boggling good! Both in terms of sound quality, which is exceptional, as well as the music, which is a timeless blend of styles and genres.
