Most achingly-beautiful music

Bach's Flute concerto. If that doesn't ache try any of Coltranes' mid-sixties innovative work. If that don't hurt I don't know what will.

Jane Sibbery 'Calling All Angels' from the album entitled "When I Was A Boy'; Chris Isaak 'Wicked Game'; John Lennon 'The Dream is Over' and 'Beautiful Boy'; Faure 'Pavanne'

One item only available on vinyl LP: Orff's "Die Kluge" on Angel directed by the composer. The cast and directing is FANTASTIC. A later rerelease on Arabesque is not as good a pressing. And ANY later rerecording is trash compared to the composer's own version. The moment where the king is 'testing' the woman with riddles is one of the greatest moments in music, and at the end when she starts in singing after the king awakens... great! Go find it!
