I know there are certain songs that seem to bring out your system better than others.

for me:
1. My love is - Diana Krall
2. Girl from Impanema - Getz/Gilberto

You Can't Always Get What You Want - Rolling Stones. Everyone is very familiar with this song and the many poor recordings of it. When someone actually hears the SACD remaster (Hot Rocks, Disk 2, Trk 7), I always get the same reaction...Wow!

Not that everyone likes what ABKCO did with the mixing, but I'm not complaining. There is still analog hiss, so it is not a perfect recording by any stretch, but just so much better than most people are used too.

Sidenote: Where the heck can I find Thelma Houston & Pressure Cooker: I've Got the Music in Me. The Sheffield Lab site indicates that it is back in print, but I can't find it! Little help please?
Wstritt, I believe Sheffield is relocating and perhaps that why their page is down. http://www.regnar.com/Sheffield%20Recordings.htm (last CD on the list) indicates that one should still be able to order it. I guess I'll have to wait and see.

Since I am here...another favorite demo CD is Lorena McKennit (sp) Book of Secrets. I use the third song, but they are all exceptional.
