Name a couple of HOLY GRAIL LPs

I have none for lack of experience. The best sound I ever heard was a Classic Records 45rpm version of Louis Armstrong singing St. James Infirmary.

He always had the best of everything...musicians, engineers, etc. Those recordings were always pristine. Same thing with Sammy Davis Jr. on Reprise.

Ditto Bill Evans Waltz for Debby.The 45s sound more like master tape than any 33 rpm IME. Sketches is an amazing arrangement and the performance is inspired, not to mention inspiring.
