whats the finest recorded cd you've heard?


Regardless of the music style what's the one disc that made you say wow about the recording quality. The one disc that comes to mind when you want to demo your system for someone. For me, I just heard an older cd from the rippingtons. The cd is "Let it Ripp" It's very well done!

in no real order....

Several of Gordon Goodwins “big Phat Band” Cds… “Swingin’ For the Fences”, “XXL”
Fourplay, Bob James’ group, “HEARTFELT”… continues to impress.
The PBS broadcast soundtrack of lewis & Clark… mostly the narrative tracks.
The Flatlanders “Now it’s Now Again” … Going Away… and the title cut… but the whole album is done quite well.
Willie Nelson’s “it always will Be.”, title cut, and several others.
Hiroshima “Tokyo Underground”
Allison Kraus’ SACD “Live” double album… all of it.
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band – “Will The circle Be Unbroken”…. All iterations/editions I do prefer Vol 1 & Vol 2 more so than vol 3… all, however are more than good front to back.
Johny Lang “Lie to Me”.
Gatemouth Brown, “Back to Boogalusa”
John mayall “Along for the Ride” especially the track with otis rush.
Lyle Lovett’s “Pontiac” & “Joshua, Judges, Ruth”
DiMeola Plays Piazzola…. Al DiMeola.
Spyro Gyra - “In Modern Times” “20/20”

Dianah Krall's "Little girl Blue" in, "From This Moment on"... yo Yo's intro and exit are sintilating.

Best overall single cut that really impresses... Thomas hampson's rendition of Andrew Loyd Webers, "The Music of The Night" is the best I've heard far and away. hampson's voice has such range and emotion I find it hard not to use the repeat function on the console. Breath taking performance.
