What are your favorite recordings that sound best to you?

Personally I found Patricia Barber café blue recording too hi Fi, I mean it doesn't sound real for me, it's a bit sci Fi. But it might be my system, anyway, some of my reference recording that gives me goosebumps are this:

Sam Cooke / night beat 

Inti illimani / lugares comunes

Sueye Park/ Paganini 24 caprices SACD

Ella and Louis SACD

Simone kopmajer / live at Heidi

Very common but still... Nils lofgren/ acoustic live

Jacques lousier/ the best of play Bach SACD

Pink Floyd/ the wall and animals

Roxy Music - Avalon SACD

Dark Side of the Moon - SACD. The main reason I still have my 20-year-old modified Sony SCD-1 is to hear this recording on the SCD-1.

Steely Dan, Aja.

Frank Sinatra and Count Basie, It Might as Well Be Swing.

Isabelle Faust, Bach Sonatas and Partitas

Jethro Tull, Aqualung, Steven Wilson mix.

The list goes on forever.
