Need demo CD's for RMAF

I need some help. I want tot play some demo CD/SACD/s at the RMAF. Looking for some really cool jazz CD's and some Latin Jazz Percussion. The bar is pretty high because our room has been really highly praised in the past.
My shopping cart on Amazon includes Trombone Shorty's Backatown. Stefon Harris Grand Unification Theory ( the first cd from Stefon but he plays the Vibes. Not sure if this is his best CD so you help here would be appreciated ) and Camino Latino (Latin Journey) et al Paco Luviano.
I am really open but the CD's must have huge sound stage both side ways and front to back plus good music would help. Our room has been praised for its pure sound so we would like to play CD's that have that purity.

Thanks for your help
Jim

Are you coming to the show?

Valerie Joyce, "New York Blue," is an unusually fine recording from Chesky, which I often use to demo. Don't know if it fits your genre requirements, though. Herbie Mann's "Live at the Village Gate" is also fine, though it tends to the very "stereo-y" presentation one often hears in Jazz of that era. Good Luck, John

Thanks.

Last year at the show a couple guys from NY came in and stayed for quite a while. They gave me four of the NY Audio Rave CD's Very cool. The 2007 CD had "Sing Sang Sung" by Gordon Goodwin. Really cool. I will put "Singin for the Fences" in my cart.
