What is the best sounding HDCD?

I've listened to Willie Nelson's "Teatro" several times this week and am impressed with the its wondeful sonic quality. This HDCD encoded disc really puts the musicians in the room with you, and the songs ain't half bad either.
There have been quite a few threads here where members are looking for HDCDs in general. I'm wondering what you consider the best recorded HDCD disc? The music is not the question here because that's just too subjective.
BTW another great sounding HDCD is "A Nod to Bob." This compilation disc, on Red House Records, was put together to honor Bob Dylan on his 60th birthday by the label's talent. Fabulous sound along with great songs. Enjoy.

While listening to Lucinda Williams' Car Wheels on a Gravel Road I noticed the HDCD indicatoe light on. Add this to your list.

My first HDCD, and still one of my favs is Beck's "Sea Change." In some ways I prefer it to the SACD.

Put John Prine's "Souneviers" cd in last night and noticed the HDCD indicator came on. No indication on the cd or packaging. It has a very nice, relaxed sound.
