Anybody have a favorite DVD-A?

I have some old DTS CDs I have been playing but haven't ordered any DVD-As yet. Does anybody have any real favorites they like to listen to?

Thanks!

Agree, GAUCHO is fantastic! Great mix and sound. Alll the Steely Dan and Donald Fagen discs sound great.

Beethoven/ Respighi: New Jersey Symphony Orchestra

Symphony No. 6 is truly a masterpiece.

I have the entire Marcel Marceau DVD collection.
Hearing mime in 5.1 digital surround is superb.

All seriousness aside, I enjoy the original TOMMY album.

My DVD-A disks: Buena Vista Social Club, Fleetwood Mac Rumors, Metallica Black Album, ELP Brain Salad Surgery. Play them all in a row the same night and it's like your own Jack-FM! The BVSC is by far the best of the lot-make yourself a nice cuba libre, light up a nice aged Cohiba and sit back and pretend you are in Havana in the Pre-Castro days, hanging with the Corleones. The ELP was a major disappointment-it is my favorite ELP album, but the transfer to DVD-A was not done very well. What I really pine for is an RL with SACD capability-the titles available are much more varied and interesting.

A couple not mentioned that sound pretty good to me are:

Santana "Supernatural"
B.B. King and Eric Clapton "Riding with the King"
