I have about 40 SACDs. My favorites include Patricia Barber's Companion, Diana Krall's Girl in the Other Room,especially Temptation(Tom Waites) and Black Crow(Joni Mitchell),Diana Krall's Love Scenes(the bass in All or Nothing At All is tremendous),Mary Chapin Carpenter's Time*Sex*Love, Ray Brown's Soular Energy, Yo-Yo Ma's Obrigado Brazil, Stereophile's K622 Mozart Clarinet Concerto, Murray Perahia's Goldberg Variations, Wynton Marsalis's London Concert, Hilary Hahn's Brahms, any of George Szell's Cleveland Orchestra including the Grieg, Bizet and Mussorgsky, and The Allman Brothers' Eat a Peach and At the Fillmore East.

I have to say I enjoy The Gene Harris Quartet Title: Listen Here! This SACD was transferred directly fron the original analog tapes into 24-channel DSD where it was mixed for 5.1 surround. I also enjoy it a lot in stereo. A very relaxing recording, with the clarity of being there.
I'll second (or third) Krall's 'girl in the other room'. Gorgeous recording, and such a lovely step for her. I have really liked Ella and Louis, and Jorma Kaukonen 'Blue Country Heart'. I have other formats of P Floyd's DSOTM and the sacd I do not feel to be well done
rwbadley - listen to DSOTM in multichannel and then let me know what you think.
