The best and worst "audiophile music"


Being iced in here in Dallas and feeling inspired after reading Art Dudley's "Listening" column in the new Stereopile, I've been reconsidering why I buy the recordings I do. You know the disks I'm talking about. The ones recommended in the audio rags and by dealers and other audiophiles. I've bought a bunch of them, and most are just lousy. The original music (and/or the performers) may or may not be any good, but the recordings are often quite strange. Are there any that you actually enjoy for the music? Which ones do you think are the worst, and why?

All of it is the worst. I don't listen to my system. I only listen to music.
My system exists solely to make great music performances sound as good as possible. If that happens to be a low resolution 1940's recording with lots of hiss, so be it.
