Recordings with incredible effects or imaging that we may not know about

I thought this could be fun and actually helpful for some of us wanting something different in our collection. 
One recording that I show off my system with is 
Supertramp - Even in the Quietest Moments.... at the beginning of this track,  there is a bird chirping,  on my system, it is about 3 feet beyond the left speaker and about 10 to 12 feet up,  this bird flies forward, then turns and comes right above your head.  Above your head, it is about 8 to 10 feet up,  it then turns and flies away going right above the right speaker and disappears into the distance.  
So,  what else is there out there that we should all know about that you just know we would all like to have in our collection.  
Please let us know,  Tim

Roger Waters: Amused to Death. For so many years I thought that its the neighbor's dog barking outside (Right side, the street side from my sweet spot) 
Funny thing, the sound of that f@)&ng dog is so realistic, I forgot that it was there even when I listened to the album when residing on the 7-th floor of the apartment building...

@slaw +1!! RR of Symphonic Dances under Eiji Oue, both as HDCD or LP fills the whole house with Music!!! Thru my all-Naim stereo it makes me jump/sing/cry all at once! Truly supernatural recording...

I never thought of Oxygene as sonic spectacular, it is plain and simply my all-time fav electronics... But since it got mentioned, let me add another one by Mike Oldfield: "The Songs of a Distant Earth". Over-digitized but with some impressive sound effects! Must-have if you like Oxygene, Rendez-Vous, Zoolook. I forgive some cheeziness to the dude who made Tubular Bells. Correction: I forgive him anything!!
