For me its the first or very early LP's of:
Allman Brothers - "Allman Joys" "Idyllwild South"
Santana - "Santana" 200 g reissue
Emerson Lake and Palmer - "Emerson Lake and Palmer"
and,
Beethoven - "Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major" Rudolph Serkin/Ozawa/BSO

Was sitting listening to a recent Neil Young interview/podcast on YouTube, made by Broken Record (look it up, it’s worth a listen)….really fun stuff, but now I’m itching to listen to music, so will go back to that later….so….what else?…

Neil Young - After The Gold Rush. Reprise reissue 1978, originally 1970

Supertramp-Crisis? What Crisis? Side II

Shakti With John McLaughlin-A Handful Of Beauty Side 2

Susannah McCorkle-How Do You Keep The Music Playing Side 2 SQ Audiophile 4.7

Jefferson Starship-Spitfire Side B

Dionne Warwick-Hot Live And Otherwise Side II

Rimsky-Korsakov-(MS 6080 Six Eye) Side 2 SQ Audiophile 4.6

Pat Benatar-Get Nervous Side 1

George Benson/Earl Klugh-Collaboration Side 2 SQ Audiophile 4.7

Very disappointed with the SQ on Crisis? What Crisis? It appears to be an original pressing its flat/dull sounding but I did like the content. Benson/Klugh and McCorkle are near reference level SQ recordings. I would give McCorkle the slight edge for sounding more organic(less polished) but both could be used as demo recordings.
