As I am sure all of you guys know, the quality of the source material is almost as important to the resultant sound as is the quality of the speakers and other components.. In most cases if your not using great sounding source material your wasting your money on everything else. As they say junk in, junk out...

Here's a short list of a few albums on regular CD's that I think sound as good as any LP or SACD (a format I never really understood as a CD recording using high standards can sound just as good) The content of these CD's is equally good as well..

Greg Brown--Slant Six Mind
Michael Buble--It's Time
Bob Dylan--Free Wheelin'
Eagles--Hell Freezes Over
Jesus Christ Superstar--Original Score and Soundtrack
John Fogerty--Blue Moon Swamp
Hayseed Dixie--A Hillbilly Tribute to AC/DC
Chris Isaak--Heart Shaped World
Diana Krall--All of You
The Legendary Marvin Pontiac Greatest Hits (he only made 1 album!!)
Michael McDonald--Blue Obsession
Sarah McLachlan--Fumbling Towards Ecstacy
Wynton Marsalis--Think Of One
Roy Orbison--Black and White Night Live
Frank Sinatra--Francis A and Edward K
Steeley Dan--Two Against Nature

I have plenty more to recommend, but these are just a few artists that I figured most of you would recognize and a couple odd-balls.

Anybody else have other any suggestions?? I'm always open to hearing another great sounding album.
