MQA - What is your favorite content?

Now that there is enough MQA content on Tidal, I thought it's time to chime in with your favorite albums. There's been plenty of threads in past couple of months about the MQA news, album contents and some naysayers of the new format.  

I for one, loving the prospect of MQA streaming at no additional charge.  And yes, to my ears MQA content does sound better than 44.1kHz files. If you don't agree, that's quite alright.  For those of us who are excited about the next step in HiFi streaming, this thread is for you.

Please share your favorite MQA album. 

Here are some of my favorites, 

DOORS ....L.A. Woman
Dan Auerbach....Keep it Hid
Blake Shelton.....If I'm Honest
The Nordiac Sound...2L Reference Recordings
a-ha....Hunting High & Low
Phil Collins....Hello I Must Be Going
Bill Evans...Affinity 
Foreigner - 4
INXS...Kick

Enjoy the music!

Young Americans by David Bowie got a nice facelift with MQA vs the sacd quality recording I've had. The background singers and sax throughout are more dynamic and present.  I have a pretty modest system by Audiogon standards - Adcom amp and pre, with a cambridge audio dacmagic to do the D/A conversion.I use an M2Tech hi face to reduce jitter. MQA seem to be an across the board upgrade on older recordings. The Doors, as OP mentioned, Stevie Wonder. On my equipment, MQA makes everything a little better-smoother, more definition between instruments, more defined bass, more soundstage depth.
