Audiogon "RECORDINGS TO DIE FOR" list

I've been listening to some of my favorite recordings this weekend and was wondering what others on Audiogon felt were there favorites. We have all seen the Stereophile "Records to Die For", The Absolute Sounds recommended list, Music Directs' list, The Golden Ear, etc. now I'm hoping to assemble the Audiogon "Recordings To Die For". Please list your five favorite recordings, the ones you listen to over and over or play for friends. I would assume the sonic quality is excellent in that this is an audiophile site. The performance and enjoy ability should also be excellent. Please leave your top five, even if they are already chosen so we can discover the very top for the Audiogon listeners. ALSO PLEASE REFRAIN FROM CRITICIZING OTHERS OPINIONS AND JUST LEAVE YOUR FAVORITES!

August 2002: I have compiled a summary and a full printer-friendly list of all of the recommendations below.

Zappa - One Size Fits All. FZ, engineer/producer extrordinaire! Did I spell that right? The genius of Frank Zappa...
Miles - Live At The Blackhawk. Five geniuses playing as one, right in front of you! Hank Mobley was my favorite of Mile's sax players. How's THAT for a bold statement?
The Grateful Dead - 9/19/70, Fillmore East. If you can get your hands on the right DAT soundboard copy, this is amazing!
Joni - Don Jaun's Reckless Daughter
Jerry Garcia & David Grisman - May 1992 Warfield Theatre San Fran. Recorded by John Cutler for David Gans' radio show. Of all the amazing Garcia/Grisman recordings (thank God!!!), this one's my fave.
