Which Record makes your system shine?

@billpete Sheffield's mainstay was direct-to-disc recordings, and their recordings are classics even to this day (although the music hasn't aged well).  Crystal Clear was an also ran in those sweepstakes.  Telarc never made D2D records - they were the first to market digital recordings made on the Soundstream digital recorder.  But it was not necessarily their recording technology that made them a standout, although it was groundbreaking at the time, it was their use of minimal miking, often using just 3 microphones to record an entire orchestra.  The result was a recording of massive depth, air and imaging, far surpassing the compressed and over-miked recordings of Deutsche Grammophon and others.

I'm waiting on my analogue system that I ordered last week. I would love to share recordings, but can't speak for my system and how it synergizes with the components. I do have to say, my digital side has been complete for about a year and sounds fantastic. Many of the same albums that are mentioned above are streaming regularly on my gear. I do not know about pressing, but the following I would like to add:

Elton John Tumbleweed Connection

David Grisman Quintet Jazz Alley

My system is awaiting a brand new VPI Prime Scout with the hotroding offered by  Upscale Audio along with a Hana ML cartridge and the EAT E-glow Petit 2 Phono stage. I'll soon be able to join the conversation.

Shine on Silver Sun. Strawbs

Stevie Ray Vaughan 'Can't Stand The Weather'.

'Tin Pan Alley', oh, my!

Getz, Gilberto  The Girl From Ipanema MoFi 200 gram, 45 rpm. To think this was recorded 1963  but this version is wonderful.

Also as previously posted, The Wonderful Sounds of Female Vocals MoFi 200 gram. One standout cut Joan Biaz Diamonds and Rust Live. I never cared for her music, but now this version is one of my showcase tunes.

Probably best "regular stock pressing" Donald Fagan The Nightfly. Even a bit better than Aja, Gouch, of course depends on  pressing version.
