What LP shows what analog can do?

That's one of the reissues I was referring to. Their Ravel and Rachmaninoff are excellent as well, the former a nice complement to the Analogue Productions reissues from the same Vox Box. Interesting to compare the Reference and AP reissues of those sets to the Classic Records DADs from those tapes, and RR's remastering chain to Doug Sax's tubed remastering job. Same master tapes, three different sonic signatures, all of them highly enjoyable and working to show how good the original recording really was (although I still can't figure how Classic mixed up the right and left channels on the DADs, even within the same piece, such as the Gershwin Concerto in F). It's too bad that Reference couldn't make any profit from their fine efforts to do more vinyl in the series, but such are the economics of this business, I guess.

Ralph Towner and Gary Burton on "matchbook". Absolutley KILLS the cd version. Suzanne Vega, " Solitude Standing"....Dire Straits, "Alchemy Live"...There are so many! I keep finding more gems that I've forgotten about everytime I dig thru my collection.

I have a Smithsonian recording of Bach's Brandenburg #5 that does the same thing in MID-MOVEMENT! The harpsichord begins in a continuo role and is placed right rear. Halfway in there's an extended cadenza for solo harpsichord, the first such in musical history BTW. Just as its solo begins the harpsichord, all 500 lbs. of it, suddenly leaps to center stage front! Once the solo is finished this amazing harpsichord retreats to right rear to resume its continuo role.

What an amazing combination of athleticism and musicianship! Wish I'd been there to see it live. :)

Someone brought up the lack of Classical music responses indicating that LP is a poor medium for Classical. I have found exactly the opposite and one of the main reasons for my move back to vinyl was Classical music. Classical on CDs is simply unlistenable to me. On CD Classical is a lifeless, smeared mushed together un-dynamic sound with little resolution between instruments and sections of the orchestra. When I switched to vinyl I had the dynamics necessary for Classical music and there was separation in the orchestra. To list favorite Classical LPs would be tedious for me, as I tire of lists in audiophilia, but with about 1000 plus Classical LPs and growing, I can assure everyone that their is only one medium for classical and that is LP. Try it, you'll like it.

My favorite LP's were bought in general from acousticsounds.com and are as following:
-Tom Petty Wildflowers
-Led Zeppelin III (180 Gram)
-Eagles Hotel California (not from acoustic sounds, it is an Original Master Recording and is the nicest sounding record of all time, the guitar sounds heavenly)
-Paul Simon Graceland
-Fleetwood Mac Selftitled (Over my head is unbelievable!)
-Radiohead OK Computer (180 Gram)
-The Who Who's Next (180 gram)
-Bob Marley Kaya (180 gram)

180 gram is the best sounding vinyl around, if you take care of that stuff it never crackles or anything!
