Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital

And idler drives… Old coveted Garrard. 

@jsalerno277 …” I would only add that I find some very early digital masters suffer compared to vinyl.”

Yes! Wow, there are some really horrible recordings as studios converted over to digital. I actually have a couple of Deutsch Gramophone albums that are simply horrible. They sound like tin. For a company in the 6070s and 80s that produce such great recordings, I can’t believe they even released some of these.

The “sound of” vinyl or digital is entirely dependent on the equipment you use to reproduce the sound. I chose my equipment to sound natural and musical. Both sound virtually identical on the same mastering and recording. There is some variance around the pressing number for the master as vinyl masters (I forgot the correct name for the mold copy). wear out. So I find there is some variance sometimes the digital will sound a tiny bit better, sometimes the same. You could put together a system were vinyl sounds beter or that digital sounds better. You can see my systems under my userID.

I have several audiophile copies of Kind of Blue. The streaming version sounds the same and only costs $14.99 a month and includes half a million other high resolution albums and ten million red book CD quality albums. Much more cost effective than CDs. So, you have another step to lower your music cost and increase your library size.
