HDCD recommendations??

Hi. I love many types of music, and still favor my Arcam HDCD player over my newer 24-bit unit. The better HDCD discs just sound better to me. Among my favorite are the Beck "Sea Change" disc, Patrica Barber's Cafe Blue, the Tom Petty "Tracks" collection, and a few others. I don't know much about classical, but like tracks with bass drum and percussion. Any other HDCD must haves?

"Mutations" by Beck is another good one if you like "Sea Change."
Joni Mitchell's "The Hissing Of Summer Lawns" is another good one.
But my favorite HDCD recommendation is "A Nod To Bob." This cd was a wonderful introduction to some new artists for me and sounds great.

Most of Mark Knopfler's recent albums are HDCD and the ones I have sound stellar.
