Which remasters to pickup?

My favorite remastered catalogs are by:

Joni Mitchell (Reprise/Asylum catalogs) (HDCD)
Steely Dan
Stevie Wonder
Peter Gabriel
Roxy Music/Bryan Ferry (HDCD)
Grateful Dead (Warner Bros. catalog) (HDCD)
Recent Rod Stewart 3-cd set of Mercury catalog

In some cases, the remasters finally sound as good as the vinyl (Joni Mitchell, Steely Dan). In some cases, the remasters surpass the original vinyl (Roxy Music, Peter Gabriel, Stevie Wonder, Rod Stewart).

I'm not nearly as impressed by the Stones (on redbook) as most people seem to be. The Who's remasters are quite spotty, but the brand-new "Who's Next" deluxe edition sounds excellent at first listen, plus the bonus material is great.

The new Police remasters are quite good. I also agree with Danlevy on the Steely Dan & Roxy Music.

Jasman, are you referring to the new 25th anniv. remasters (digipack) by the Police? Do you know if they are any different from the '96 remastering?

I've found that most of the remasters done since 1999 are very good. The Santana remasters are excellent as are the Rolling Stones. The BEST remaster I have heard so far is Pink Floyd's DSOM. The redbook layer is great but the multi-channel SACD is AWESOME!

Which Santana remasters are you referring to, the individual albums or the new anthology?
