Must -have SACD's


While the new format holds quite a bit of promise a lot of the recordings currently available can sound 2-dimensional and sometimes shrill on the top end. This thread is for SACD's that are all around better recording wise than the best of redbook CD. My suggedtions are the Eric Bibb SACD on Opus 3, the Rebecca Pigeon SACD on Chesky, the Tony Bennett Unplugged on Sony, the Carmina Burana on Sony. These SACD's seem to be better than redbook CD's in pretty much every aspect and should be considered must-have's. Please list other SACD's in this category for current owners of this format so we can avoid wasted purchases of inferior quality recordings.

I have the Willie Nelson remastered Stardust CD. I consider it one of my favorate and best recorded CDs. I do not have the SACD, but Stardust is on Sony sampler disk that came with my S9000ES. The SACD version of Stardust is more dynamic, defined, and tube-like than my CD version.
