Best sonics/music on CD

What are your three best CD's where you would rate the sonics and music a 10?.

1. Michel Camilo: Triangulo, Label Telarc (Jazz)

2. Leopold Stokowski: Rhapsodies, Label Living Stereo (classical)

3. Antonio Vivaldi: La Straganza - Rachel Podger: Arte Dei Suonatori, Label Channel Classics (classical)

All three of these CD's are hard to pull away from and I never tire listening to them.

Howard, are you saying "Sweeter than the Day" is like Le Pas? If so, I'll be looking for it.
Musically, the Horvitz stuff is a bit more structured. But I think it would have appeal to virtually anyone who likes jazz at any level. Wayne Horvitz made a studio album with this same title, as well as this live recording. Both are very good, but I especially like the live one. It is on Kufala records, which are marketed as 'authorized bootlegs'.

One of the most unique recordings I've ever heard, one I find highly addictive, is Pierre Yves Mace - "Faux Jumeaux". Marco, I think this would be one of your favorites.

Marco, I love Temptation by Holly Cole, but the recording just doesn't hold up with time: sound wise. Not audiophile level for these ears, but the music reins, no matter.... :)
