What is the VERY BEST CD album you've ever heard?


Just like with records, I came across releases on CD that were never popular, but bring lots of interesting music and so I started collecting CDs that do have collectible value for the reason of a great and rare music presented.

So far album "Sauce Hollandaise" by Ashra is on my #1 desirable list

"Best Band You've Never Heard In Your Life" by Frank Zappa is my 2nd best CD I've ever heard.

I've had this for a while now, but finally cracked it open: Spheres II by Delerium.  Spacey, ambient, juicy, spooky, moody instrumentals.   Sounds exquisite.

Terms "pop" and "rock and roll" have been in use by music industry professionals, since early- to mid-1950s.  I entered into what I thought was a discussion.  If this is your idea of a game, you can declare yourself the winner by forfeit.

I have a couple I never get tired of Jeff Beck Wired and Special Efx Confidential

1978 Denon release of Archie Shepp and Dollar Brand titled Duet. The cleanest, most revealing recording I've ever heard in any format, regardless of genre. Excellent dynamic range, unmolested transients, superb definition. Play this when you want to gauge just how revealing a system truly is.
