Great sounding/recorded albums

I'm tired of all the electronic fake drums and other music I'm hearing on so many albums. 

What are some excellently recorded albums/songs that actually sound like the instruments you're hearing and not a synth?

I am 2 channel only right now and primarily listen through Tidal.

Check out the Reference Recording label. Great recordings in multiple genres and great for demonstrating any system.

Here's what I've been using for a long time: Weather Report's I Sing The Body Electric and Sweet Nighter. Columbia Records LPs. The songs respectively are: The Unknown Soldier and Boogie Woogie Waltz. Joe Zawinul, Wayne Shorter and crew show how to really do jazz-fusion!
