Mine are: DAVE BRUBECK "TIME OUT", MILES DAVIES "KIND OF BLUE", TITANIC SOUNDTRACK, GETZ GILBERTO.

The one that leaps to mind that no one has yet mentioned is Jerry Douglas' 'Lookout For Hope'. Kind of a jazz-newgrass fusion with stunning presence. Top marks for both music and sound.
Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade; Stravinsky: Song of the Nightingale (Living Stereo)Wonderful Dynamics and very emotional performance (three channel recording as was the original)

Avalon - Roxy Music is my favourite for a multi channel disk

Eleanor McEvoy's Yola (full bodied sound)

Elton John's Goodbye yellow brick road (the acoustic version of Candle in the wind had my jaw all the way down to the floor )
Hey! Just listening to the Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade; Stravinsky: Song of the Nightingale (Living Stereo) for the first time myself last night. It was so capturing, that although I was tired to the point of getting off my chair and lying on the floor with the lights out and a pillow, I wanted to continue to listen. It was only 9:30 pm!
