I like to use some Rickie Lee Jones tracks when checking out my system's performance.
Woody and Dutch on the Slow Train to Peking, on the RLJ "Pirates" album is a good one. A real fun song.
Also, most all of the cuts on the RLJ first(self-titled) album are good for testing, and just plain listening too.

The Willie Nelson album "Stardust" is great for checking out male vocals, and detail too.
