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?

Jacques Loussier playing Eric Satie's Gymnopedies was my favourite HDCD when I had an HDCD player

FYI

Steve Hoffman recently announced he won't be using HDCD technology anymore as it degrades the sound. http://stevehoffman.tv/forums/showthread.php?t=246642

Just received Elephant Revival's Break In The Clouds. Sounds like a good one and it's HDCD encoded.
