Thanks Tom, I hope you don't take my reply to you somewhere below too seriously, but it served a 'higher' goal.First of all, any recent recording on Philips of the Kirov Orchestra under Gergiev is a stunner recordingwise and their 1994 1812 is pretty good too.
Starker plays Kodaly (Delos 1015), I never heard a better recorded cello
Prodigy - The Fat of the Land, lots of well-recorded sounds in the the complete frequency-spectrum and besides very interesting music if you're 'ready' for it.
Trio Toykeat - Sisu, Finnish kind of jazz with tracks like 'Karate'
Pixies - Surfer Rosa, excellently produced intelligent rock from Frank Black, eh sorry Black Francis.
Rammstein - Sehnsucht, perhaps a bit too German too your taste, but very nice indeed.
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - The Boatman's Call, need I say more?
Shostakovich 4 - CBSO/Rattle (EMI), dynamically the last movement of this great performance and even better, well-balanced recording scares the shit out of my cat so let's see what your Dachshunds will do.
Cecilia Bartoli - Live in Italy (Decca), how to drown into a voice and music you never really appreciated before and how to fall in love with this woman.
Bruckner symphonies 3-9, Te Deum, Mass in F minor, Munchner Philharmoniker - Sergiu Celibidache, besides my favourite Bruckner box excellent recordings of these live-performances, making you hear a more rounded and balanced Bruckner instead of the blaring and more 'impressive' interpretations from other conductors, but this one will learn you to appreciate Bruckner if Eduard van Beinum with the Concertgebouworkest doesn't succeed in this.
There's more, so just stick around.
Best,
Rob
