Favorite SACD's

There are a number of previous threads on this subject that you should check out for good recommendations. A recent SACD which I bought is a Bis recording, Prieres Sans Paroles, which is a recording of 20th Century pieces for solo trumpet and organ recorded in a vast Danish cathedral. It is a DSD recording, and shows off what the medium can do in terms of naturalness of timbre of the trumpet, stunning capture of the cathedral's ambience (makes every CD I've heard sound artificial in comparison, including the very good CD layer of this disc), and dynamic range (and we're talking about the trumpet as well as the organ here). I also have grown to like the selections, some of which are quite good, particularly the first cut on the disc. If you're at all into trumpet and organ music and can take atonal music, worth getting.

Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Roxy Music - Avalon.

I agree Gerry, Roxy Music- Avalon is great! Its been a few years and now I have a few hundred SACD's and some are REALLY good and a few disappoint, that being said I am impressed with what the format has to offer. When did you pick up a SACD player?

Muswell Hillbillies - The Kinks
The Firebird - Stravinsky - Mercury Living Presence
Sea Change - Beck
Tommy - The Who

If you like female vocals try the album Yola by Irish artist Eleanor McEvoy, she is just brilliant! The recording is very good too.
