Songs for Discriminating Ears

What are your favorite songs (preferably popular) that show off the quality of your music system; specifically imaging and depth?  I love the guitar "here"; vocalist "there"; and drum "back over there".  I have McIntosh, Martin Logan, JL Audio equipment and am constantly looking for songs that distinguish the best, but am often times disappointed in the recordings.

ECM: Re (album) Recat (song) by Lodebauer/Villalobos. Mind blowing.

If you like acoustics you can try Eric Bibb recordings. Especially the early ones but also later like his Friends album. This is real imaging and depth, no studio tricks.

Get the speaker placement/room in order first, to hear anything playing heard as best as possible.
