Recommendations for a jazz record which demonstrates vinyl superiority over digital


I have not bought a vinyl record since CDs came out, but have been exposed to numerous claims that vinyl is better.  I suspect jazz may be best placed to deliver on these claims, so I am looking for your recommendations.

I must confess that I do not like trad jazz much.  Also I was about to fork out A$145 for Miles Davis "Kind of Blue" but bought the CD for A$12 to see what the music was like.  I have kept the change!

I love the jazz in the movie Babylon, which features local Oz girl Margo Robbie (the film, not the jazz).

So what should I buy?

Cartridges / phono-stages should honour the RIAA equalisation curve.  Most cartridges have a distinct lift in the treble, which also means the leading edges of transients are accentuated.  Of course, when mastering a record from a digital file, the recording engineer can modify whatever parameters he chooses.  In general we like louder!

OK - I did highlight one style of jazz that I know I like, the jazz in the film Babylon.  It is available on a 2-LP set, and represents a modern take on 1920s jazz with dazzling trumpet solos.  Does that help?

Arne Domnerus-Jazz at the Pawnshop Disc 1-3. These original live recordings were released in various forms and media. The ones I recommend are the remastered SACD versions. It is one of the finest jazz experiences you can bring into your listening room. The OP assumes analogue superior to digital as a recording media. I am not saying one way or the other. Listen to these 3 digital recordings and decide for yourself.
